To seek justice is the desire of a person who is rational because one understands that without justice peaceful human relationship is impossible. An unjust relationship is a relationship where one dominates another through abuse of power.
Power is ability. The more ability you have at doing something the greater the results. If you use your power or ability to oppress or exploit others, you abuse your power. You gain power if you study, if you learn a skill and apply it. Power used in a creative manner improves your life and that of the people around you. Powerful people or successful people are among the most generous people in the world. Their power can be put to very good use so that they and others will benefit.

Power is simply control. The most important type of power or control we can have is over ourselves. Justice on the other hand is a much more complicated issue and can be seen in many ways. Justice can mean balance, righting a wrong and to some vengence. However I like to think of justice as karma....you get what you give.

Power is the ability to "do or act" justice can be defined as the "use" of authority so justice is that which is acted upon by power. The concept of what is just and the relating "justice" is subjective.

Possessing power is to know you have it and use it sparingly. Justice is when the right things are done for the right reasons or worthy causes. Justice is giving a person exactly what they deserve, sometimes in the form of restitution, when a person has been mis-treated, slandered etc.... That is what Saddam is about to get justice!

Justice needs Power, and Power + Law = Justice. Power without restraint leads to injustice. Justice without power leads to injustice. It was Power that brought Saddam to trial, it was Justice that said he should hang. It is Power that will hang him.

Justice has to do with fairness. Power has to do with control.
The Bible says that controlling other is witchcraft.
