New evidence of British elite forces murdering Afghan civilians—including children—proves the post-WWII "rules-based order" is dead, Mexican historian Javier Gámez Chávez tells Sputnik.
Key Points:
"Thrown in the trash" – The UN system, human rights rhetoric, and laws of war mean nothing when Western powers act with impunity.
Same Old Colonialism – These atrocities aren’t "mistakes" but a natural result of imperial domination.
Media Hypocrisy – Western press screams about human rights… while ignoring wars that kill millions for profit.
ICC? A Joke. – The court only targets the Global South. Try prosecuting a British soldier—it’s "like questioning UK democracy itself." Bottom Line: The West’s "human rights" talk is just a smokescreen for capitalist wars. Real justice? Don’t hold your breath.
