According to my own personal belief of what justice is? No. I do not believe in justice. The word itself means "fairness", and the world is clearly not fair. Is it just for a suicide bomber to kill dozens of innocents? no. Was it just for Saddam to be hanged? maybe. was it just for MLK to have been killed? no. At the same time though, I do not believe in justice because what seems unjust to us may be just to someone else, and my system of belief is not better than any other. I think a better question is....I'll just post it so others can answer as well.

Not necessarily, because we all inherit varying level in sense of justice. But a person who has the right sense of justice will recognise justice at any level.
We normally judge on the basis of our limited knowledge but world events takes place on the basis of a perfect wisdom that is far beyond our knowledge.
In order to maintain the world in equilibrium, all events that takes place today are inevitable. Hanging Saddam may be injustice in my sight but that was inevitable for many other reasons.

Each person develops one's own 'sense of justice' , because of the way each individual perceives the world, so world events may not happen according to any individual's sense of justice since, the events happen due to sum totality of forces giving direction to it !

do you mean, do things happen justly in the world?
I'd say yes, sort of. It's hard to analyze that on a broad basis. All you can really account for is whether or not the happenstances of your own life were just.

Yes and no. A "yes" example--they hanged Saddam Hussein.
A "no" example--OJ Simpson can still be seen on the golf course.

Not necessarily. They happen as they are destined to ,because of the inexhorable law of Karma.

Yes.
Therefore one should pardon himself first before blaming others.
