Let's see here...All through the 80's in Central American thousands and thousands of people were disappeared, many by people trained in the USA at Fort Benning's SOA - who was president? ReaganIn 1986 Saddam gassed 60,000 of his people - who was president? ReaganIn 1989 dissidents in China were rolled over by tanks when protesting for democracy - who was president? BushIn 1991 after the first Gulf War Saddam killed thousands of Kurds who were led to believe the US was going to stand by them - who was president? BushMy point is, the only time the Republican ruling class seems to truly care about human rights is when it suits their purpose. But to show I am not completely biased - one thing Clinton did that has always left a bitter taste in my mouth is do nothing when in Rwanda almost a million people were hacked to death in 100 days. Now, if our current president had used diplomacy much better he could have used this instance to show the UN can be quite ineffective.
