Here's what Amnesty Int'l had to say about Saddam |
x-no-archive:yes
earlier this year:
http://web.amnesty.org/library/Index/ENGMDE140882003?open&of=ENG-IRQ
It becomes pretty obvious that this notion that liberal and progressive
groups just love old Saddam is complete and utter *****. As I've said
before and will say again for as long as is necessary to get the danged
point across, human rights groups have for years decried Saddam's human
rights record. For so many years, they were voices in the wilderness,
especially during the 1980s when Reagan and Bush I had little problem with
providing loans, biological agents, etc. to Baghdad.

What's the difference? Amnesty Itnl., and the U.N. for that matter, just
give lip service to any issue of human rights.
The U.S. is the only one who will actually DO something about it.

Well, we've *done* something about human rights, but not necessarily
something constructive...our history of supporting brutal dictators is
rather shameful.

Maybe it's time we *all* realized that concern about the human
rights of others is directly connected to our own sense of comfort
or relative wealth.
People who help others nearly always do it from a feeling of
superiority. Which, if examined closely may make even the most
liberal minded a little uncomfortable.
