But that's the exact point they want to make regarding the U.S. pointing the finger at everyone else without first trying to fix itself.
The US is actively and obviously violating human rights. I don't see how one could possibly get the idea that there even is the wish to seriously mitigate those violations let alone a genuine effort to do anything about it, quite the opposite actually.
Bush managed to give the US a reputation in Europe that is almost on par with Russia and China. Why do you think that is?
