It is the moral obligation and duty of the United States to intervene when other countries violate human rights. According to the Constitution of the United States, it citizens preserve certain human rights such as life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. There are many countries, which do not hold the same beliefs that the United States presents to its citizens. There have been many situations where the U.S. has intervened in the violation of human rights in other countries. Although not all countries have the same type of declaration of human rights, there should be limits on what can be done to citizens from any country. There are many moral issues at stake. Should other countries be allowed to mistreat, torture, or even in some cases kill their citizens? The answer to this question is definitely no. It is the moral responsibility of the United States to continue intervening in the violation of human rights in other countries. There should be certain things that no human being should do to any other for any reason. Some of these countries are misusing their powers and there is no one there to stop them from doing so.
In the world today we are faced with many dilemmas between civil and political rights. It is very important that each citizen must obtain these privileges and have equal opportunities. Every man or woman should have the freedom to speak out about his or her government and legislation with out fear of imprisonment or death.
If the United States does not intervene when there are violations of human rights, there may very well never be a stop to it. The Holocaust of the 1930s can be used as an example of such treatment toward the citizens of Germany. Who gave one individual the power to segregate, mistreat, and kill people from their own country? Citizens of Germany (Jews) were victims of this situation because of their religious beliefs. The Jewish people did not have the military power or resources to stand up to Hitler's army.
