George at Amal Clooney, kabado sa kanilang seguridad
DAHIL sa dinala ni Amal Clooney ang mga kaso laban sa Islamic State sa French courts, ibinahagi ni George Clooney, asawa niya, ang tungkol sa posibleng panganib na maaari nilang maharap, lalo na para sa kanilang dalawang anak, ang one-year-old twins nilang sina Alexander at Ella.
“My wife is taking the first case against ISIS to court, so we have plenty of issues – real, proper security issues – that we have to deal with on a fairly daily basis,” sabi ni George, isang human-rights activist, sa The Hollywood
Reporter sa Awards Chatter podcast ngayong linggo. “We don’t really want our kids to be targets, so we have to pay attention to that.”
Dagdag pa ng aktor, na ikinasal kay Amal, isang human-rights attorney, noong 2014, na he lives “a pretty good life. I have a beautiful wife and two beautiful kids. … (but) there are things you miss. I miss being able to walk with our kids in Central
Park.”
Nakaokupa na ng ISIS, grupo ng Islamic militants na nagpasiklab ng Iraq war at civil war sa katabi nitong Syria, ng teritoryo sa mga nasabing bansa at pinuwersa ng mga miyembro nito ang mga kababaihan na magpakasal o maging sexual slave, ayon sa ulat ng USA TODAY.
Batay sa panayam sa mga Yazidi female refugees, idineklara ng Human Rights Watch noong 2015 na “ISIS had operated a system of organized rape and sexual assault, sexual slavery, and forced marriage.” Nitong nakaraang buwan, kinalampag ni Amal ang United Nation’s Security Council na i-prosecute ang Islamic State extremists sa Iraq at Syria dahil sa panggagahasa, dahil aniya, “if the U.N.’s most powerful body cannot prevent atrocities of sexual violence from happening in wartime situations ‘then at least it must punish it’ and make justice for victims a priority”.
