There are obviously human rights abuses going on, but the sort of policing necessary probably depends a lot on the population you’re policing.

Can't make an omelette without cracking a few eggs, "human rights" are just an obstacle between us and a healthy, safe society.

I disagree, but it also depends on context. You should look into the background of the president of El Salvador and his wife, I think you’d find it interesting.

Isn't he like a Palestinian Christian married to a half jew or something?

Also respecting human rights just creates problems that lead to more human suffering than respecting them prevents. It's a concept invented to subvert societies and everyone who uses them as a banner actually violates them just as much as their enemies, if not worse.

He's muslim, his father converted.

That really only applies to multicultural societies.
