Choose your allies
I don't want to support any of the actions of the Bush administration or any other
country's administration following them, but I strongly recommend people on
p.g.o to choose their allies a little more carefully
International politics isn't quite as simple a topic as it may sound. Some actions
are clearly violating international law. WIth others the situation isn't as clear, e.g trade
with countries violating Human Rights isn't considered illegal under any treaties
I'm aware of, but you'd still be supporting those crimes.
To that extent, there are few countries in the world that are not on the black
lists of the various NGOs (ai only being the best known one) themselves or keeping
up trade relationships with such countries.
