U.S. politicians should stand up to genocidal or anti-democratic governments, @mehdirhasan says — as long as we don't give them a free pass. And, @peterbeinart says, while “it’s important to make moral statements,” the critical question is: “What effect do your policies have?”

The US is the biggest anti-democratic and genocidal nation. You have no credibility until you study its record!

Just so people know who Mehdi Hassan is: In 2015, he moved to Washington, D.C.,to work full-time for Al Jazeera . Hasan is the presenter of the Al Jazeera English shows: The Café, Head to Head & UpFront. Al Jazeera is a Qatar run news org. Understand him by understanding that.

Mehdi, you're not all that bright. That's why you're a fill-in host.

IF we could really tell what effects policies have. We tamper with nature and financial markets and don't seem to fully understand them with sometimes disastrous results.
