Maybe a country that employs secret police to round people up on the basis of race and ship them to concentration camps, invades other countries on a whim, kidnaps presidents of other countries, attacks still others in the middle of negotiations, kills fishermen for sport, bombs elementary schools, destroys water desalination plants and civilian oil refineries, torpedoes unarmed ships in international waters and leaves the survivors to drown, blockades all fuel from a country to precipitate likely mass starvation, and dedicates its justice department to protecting an international sex trafficking ring should hesitate before lecturing the world about human rights and international law.
