The US and UK's new best friend still has a poor human rights record, WMDs or no WMDs. Can we expect the usual handwashing that comes with such countries when Bush doesn't want to invade, human rights are 'an internal matter', we'll try and encourage Colonel Gaddafi to introduce human rights by being nice to him and giving him cash and welcoming him back into the human rights community... As Calpundit shows, the Bush regime doesn't much care for human rights abuses really and the UK famously decided an 'ethical foreign policy' was inconpatible with the main function of the Foreign Office, helping British business sell to bastards.
