If there is no such thing as obligations to past generations, then the
idea of History is nullified. If an action such as a genocide has no
force after a given number of years, then as long as one can get away
with it for the requisite period, the action has no value except to let
others know what can be gotten away with.  Consequently, except for a
nuclear winter in which the slate is wiped clean, there is no justice.
