مداخله بشردوستانه؟

تحلیل‌گرانی که می‌کوشند حمله‌ی نظامی را به عنوان راهگشای مسائل حقوق بشر در ایران معرفی کنند

18-Nov-2011 (5 comments)
نگارنده بر این باور است که علیرغم آنچه مبلغان حمله‌ی نظامی صریحاً یا تلویحاً بیان می‌کنند، وضعیت نقض حقوق بشر در ایران به هیچ عنوان به گونه‌ای نیست که "مسئولیت محافظت" جامعه‌ی جهانی را برانگیزد و مداخله نظامی قدرت‌های خارجی را توجیه نماید. بررسی اجمالی این اصل دلیل اظهار چنین ادعایی را به خوبی روشن می‌سازد: >>>

One cannot help but wonder if NIAC and other self appointed pseudo lobbyist organizations living on the fumes of their crudely defined missions, were to focus their efforts on getting Iran to tone down it's nuclear and other regional ambitions, or rather to focus less on the US political process and more on Iran's, the road to less sanctions would be more easily traveled.
