Sun coverage


The Sun, a British tabloid, has recently published some photographs of the erstwhile Iraqi President. Saddam Hossein is seen naked except for his underwear that brings disgrace to the global people. The Sun has apparently forgotten that Saddam Hossein once was a bold leader of Iraq. The photographs certainly violated Saddam's right to privacy. As a detainee he has the right to keep himself private at a prison in accordance with Geneva Convention. But the tabloid here almost ignored the right of a detainee.

We obviously know that human rights are mostly being violated by the western world. Yet, western leaders are always talking about human rights and democracy.
