Hypocrisy of the West regarding media ban, human rights violations in Pakistan

[Savak]

It's very telling how the US, UK and the West in general are silent about the ban on ARY, Bol News, pro PTI journalists in Pakistan right now and the human rights abuse of opposition politicians like Shahbaz Gill and the clear involvement of the military in Pakistani political affairs right now.

Democracy becomes unfavourable to the US when the leaders are not to their liking. Had the pti government been indulging in these antics against the PDM politicians and pro PDM journalists, they would have publically criticized Pakistan on every forum and even imposed sanctions on the pretext of human rights violations by now.

You're spot on. The word 'fascist' was being thrown around to describe Imran Khan's government but now, silence. It's clear the US had a hand in the regime change

Could be, I think Pakistan has no importance in the west. Hence not much coverage

There is plenty of coverage try the BBC website. But they wont cover or criticise policies which are in their benefit, ie a weak Pakistan ruled by American lapdogs.

Nobody except those who bend the knee to west take their views seriously at all now. The notion they are the worlds policemen or the good guys has been non-existant for decades. They will say or act in any criminal way or ignore human rights if it helps their interests.

West is hypocritical. Always has been. That's right.

They seem to focus on certain agendas and only stick to those agendas.
