RE: Sometimes, intervening a country might be the right thing to do.
Nowadays it is becoming increasingly difficult to violate human rights, or at least to cover up these violations
Im not so sure. I see human rights beeing abused left and right and since migration crisis started I have impression that public acceptance to these violations is very high already.
People seem not to care the way they did. As long as problem do not "touch" them, they are happy and fine with it.
Internet helps bring exposure and visibility but also made people feel nothing. Or almost nothing. We see news about others being tortured and 1 min later we don't even remember that any more. Attention span is very short and really hardly anyone cares.
I can only hope that thigs will get better. But do I believe in it? Not really.

Human rights violations have always happen, but now we have the means to document, report and inform everyone when this happens, that is a big difference.
Yes it can happen, after being bombarded with so much negative news people can get a little bit numb.
