USA: Flirting with fundamentalist Islam

The United States (US) government is like a loose cannon with its double standards and hypocrisy in lecturing and pillorying other countries’ human rights shortcomings as if it has the moral and ethical superiority on this matter. It has once again accused the current Awami League government in Bangladesh of committing human rights violations in its recently released 2022 Country Reports on Human Rights Practices. The report by the US State Department regarding Bangladesh has sparked concerns as it seems to support the Islamist outfit Jamaat-e-Islam (JeI).
