There are human rights violators, and then there is Israel. The U.K. Foreign office has released its report on the world’s 26 worst human rights violators. Here’s the intro: This section of the report refers to the 26 countries where we have some of the most serious wide-ranging human rights concerns. When deciding on which countries to include, we also considered whether the country had been the target of a high level of UK engagement on human rights in 2010, and whether it would be likely to effect positive change in the wider region if its human rights record improved.And here is the list of the 26 worst violators of human rights that the U.K. feels fit to chastise. One of these things is not like the other. See if you can figure out which country among all of these is the one with a democratic system, the rule of law, a court system that consistently stops the armed forces and police from violating detainee human rights, and where there is full recourse to claims of human rights violations. Afghanistan, Belarus, Burma, Chad, China, Colombia, Cuba, Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, Democratic Republic of Congo, Eritrea, Iran, Iraq, Israel and the OPTs, Libya, Pakistan, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, Sri Lanka, Sudan, Syria, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Vietnam, Yemen, Zimbabwe |
