What Purpose?
In light of the ongoing murders of Indigenous leaders by the Colombian army, one has to wonder what purpose the UN Human Rights Council serves. If the UN cannot investigate or intervene where atrocities are committed because they are funded or otherwise supported by the United States, then the HRC is a sham. If Americans cannot muster energy to force their own government to disinvest in murderous regimes, then America is a sham.
