I agree with your point Sid, and the one you made before that. Human rights are important everywhere. But that’s not what JI said. There was no mention of anyone else or their rights, other than Christians.
In any case, invading another country in order to defend human rights is never straightforward, as we’ve seen across the middle east and elsewhere in recent decades. It’s probably one of the biggest dilemmas facing any leader. But deciding against it, or deciding to withdraw – while it might be ill-judged, particularly without a clear withdrawal plan – is scarcely a qualification for idiocy.
