Kenneth Roth, monetizing mendacity.

 Kenneth Roth runs Human Rights Watch which spends some 70 or 80 million dollars a year. HRW is now demanding that Indian Courts grant immunity to 'activists' and crooked cops who perjure themselves and fabricate evidence so as to send innocent people to prison. The Human Rights cottage industry is a naked swindle which has monetized mendacity in the service of what Michael Polanyi called 'moral inversion'- i.e. pretending you are so angelic that you find good people are actually crypto-Nazi while evil terrorists are actually freedom fighters. 

HRW acknowledges that 'Setalvad is accused of forgery, filing false charges, criminal conspiracy, and fabricating false evidence with intent to cause a person to be convicted of a capital offense. Sreekumar was also arrested after the complaint. Bhatt, previously convicted of murder in 2019 in a case dating back 30 years that appeared to be politically motivated, faces new allegations. Setalvad and Sreekumar have been detained in police custody until July 2.'

Bhatt and Sreekumar are former police officers of senior rank. Their fabricated evidence caused innocent people to be thrown in jail. HRW is now demanding that Indian police officers be granted immunity for egregious human rights offences! Why will Kenneth Roth not demand the same thing for American police officers? How would he like it if any cop who doesn't like the look of him could fabricate evidence against him, throw him in jail, and lie about it in court without fearing any legal sanction? How would he like to be deprived of his liberty?

The plain fact is that Human Rights activism is now a wholly Fascist enterprise. If you yourself claim to be one such 'activist' you should be allowed to get anybody you don't like thrown in jail on the basis of your perjured testimony. The Court must not disbelieve you. It must not sanction you if your fraud is detected. But, anybody you don't like should be sent to jail immediately! Is it any wonder that British voters, including many former 'Red Wall' Labor supporters, supported the party which said it would make it a top priority to ditch the Human Rights Charter?
