Every country in the world has problems including human rights violations, and the USA and its allies have committed some of the worst human rights violations ever.

Consider the slaughter of a hundred thousand people by U.S. "shock and awe" bombing of Baghdad.

Consider the torture of prisoners of war and the shredding of the Geneva Conventions.

Consider the Patriot Act.

Consider U.S. drone bombings in Afghanistan, Yemen, Libya, with not a whole of niceties about innocent bystanders, not to mention the right to trial.

Consider capital punishment and U.S. prisons jammed with the poor, especially African-Americans, the great majority suffering draconian sentences for minor crimes.

Consider the routine rape in U.S. prisons--so common that cops use it as a threat.

You going to send U.S. missiles, bombers, troops, gunships--and make a whole lot of war profiteers richer than ever-- to correct every wrong on earth BY KILLING MORE PEOPLE.

Think about war propaganda! Please!
