Can't Get This Out of My Mind

A daughter abducted and forced to do things no woman should have to submit to, let alone a 14-year old girl should have to endure. Will I have to do this until the day I die?

A son stolen away from family and beaten if he stops doing manual labor for just a moment because his back is hurting. Will I die in the mud in the middle of my labors?

An anguished mother's cry. A defeated father's pain. Where is the hope and the justice?

$92 billion human trafficking "industry" worldwide
27 million people enslaved against their wishes
2 million of them children

Life torn down to a commodity to be exploited for the gain of others.

Some of the facts:
Israel Sex Trade - Ranked by UN as #1 in world for Sex Trafficing
