What about human rights? What obligations does the rest of the world have when countries are oppressive?  Is there recourse? Looking back, in Cambodia, Pol Pot was responsible for the death of about 1 million Cambodians, how should the U.S. (and other leading powers) react?  Is getting involved important, and if so, how do you recommend going about it?  If not, at what point, does it become important for other countries to get involved?  After World War II, the United Nations vowed to intervene in future genocides, at what point does that become a priority? Another example is Myanmar (Burma) which had a very oppressive government until very recently. But, Burma (Myanmar) has recently had reforms and elections, and the U.S. removed some of the economic sanctions it has had on Burma for many years. However, there are still multiple human rights violations, and there is also wholesale repression and the attempted destruction of the Rohingya people (which even the newly elected government has participated in).  AungSan Suu Kyi, a Nobel Peace Prize winner has even been silent on their oppression.  These are the people who have been in the news lately trying to flee by boat (in Asia -- there are also multiple "boat people" trying to enter Europe from north Africa).
