'This
empire truly believes it has a right to rule the world, and that no
nation has a right to refuse it. The re-emergence of a true multipolar

securing unipolar domination at all cost, and it’s getting very ugly
very fast.'
By Caitlin Johnstone: The United States is suddenly very concerned about human rights violations in India, with Secretary of State Antony Blinken telling the press on Monday that “we are monitoring some recent concerning developments in India including a rise in human rights abuses by some government, police and prison officials.”
While it is true that India’s right-wing government is guilty of human rights abuses and has been for years, it is also true that the US State Department does not actually care about human rights abuses.
A leaked State Department memo from the early days of the Trump administration showed neo-con-artist empire manager Brian Hook teaching a previously uninitiated Secretary of State Rex Tillerson that for the US government, “human rights” are only a weapon to be used for keeping other nations in line.
