Changing western attitude

I have always been an admirer of the British judiciary and the traditions set by great jurists like Lord Denning et al which reads like masterpieces of philosophy. We were unanimous in our view that the West, particularly the UK and the US, have regard for the rights of their own citizens but history and current global events highlight their gross disregard for the same when it concerns citizens of other countries. The naked aggression on falsehood of WMD and violation of human rights by the US have made it very clear to an inquiring mind what would happen to their own people if the factors in developing world were put to test in their own countries as one prophetically pointed out that the UK was never put to test. I am horrified to realise how fragile all those terms like human rights and rules of law etc are as eyewitness accounts confirmed how the law enforcers shot dead an unarmed man in cold blood in a London tube, his crimes- first, Asian looking and second, a suspect for London blasts. We now know that it was a terrible mistake and the deceased was a Brazilian, nothing to do with bombing. So, every person with Asian look and with a baggage or in heavy clothing could be the next victim of "shoot to kill" policy.
