Human Rights Watch Decries Iraq War - wants intervention in Sudan

Human Rights Watch seems to want to pick and choose who gets protection.

No to Iraq

The war in Iraq cannot be justified as an intervention in defence of human rights even though it ended a brutal regime, Human Rights Watch said Monday, dismissing one of the U.S. administration's main arguments for the invasion.

Yes to Darfur

U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell, traveling to Sudan today, should make it clear to the Sudanese authorities that the international community will protect the civilians in Darfur if the Sudanese government fails to do so, Human Rights Watch said today.

"International community" is a euphanism for the US, isn't it?
