The US armed and funded Saddam while he gassed the Kurds and Iran. They were fine with it. Then when the US wanted to invade Iraq, they used "Saddam's gassing his own people" as though that were the cause. That's how human rights concerns are used as a pretext. It's transparent. — PolitiTweet.org

If you want to change the government of a country because you want to control it more or make it more amenable to your interests, just say that. Be honest. Don't use human rights as a pretext for imperialism. The USG doesn't care about human rights. https://t.co/Eqfz77VBKT — PolitiTweet.org

@Antinatalist The point is the US doesn't change governments because of human rights concerns. The US loves despots as long as they serve US interests. That's why they prop up Egypt & Saudi Arabia. Every country has people in it who would love the US to come change their government. Iraq did. — PolitiTweet.org
