Argentina is far from being the only country in which what sceptics call “the human rights industry” has been taken over by activists with on occasion genocidal views. Like aristocrats of former times, they are appalled by the idea that nobody, not even Hebe or Cristina, should be regarded as above the law. Argentina’s human rights activists, most of whom are either related to people who “disappeared” or belong to political factions with trenchantly undemocratic views, have played this game with remarkable success. Lately, leftists have been joined by Islamists who have contrived to make “Islamophobia” an unforgiveable sin that should be punished with appropriate severity. Unluckily for many of them, most of their compatriots think otherwise.
