The Great Hypocrisy
Bestselling author Jürgen Todenhöfer documents this revelation with shocking examples and calls on the West to practice what they preach in terms of human rights. Under the pretext of noble aims, the West has been pursuing a violent interest-driven policy with its military interventions for centuries ‒ not only in more recent campaigns in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Libya or Yemen. The policy of the “great hypocrisy”, as Todenhöfer terms it, which is fuelled today by powerful media, not only destroys other people and civilizations but also erodes the legitimacy and credibility of the West. Again and again, Western foreign policy in our time rocks the world with preventable catastrophes. Jürgen Todenhöfer demonstrates this with gripping examples, researched with his son in the world’s most dangerous conflict zones. He calls for the West to finally take the interests of other people into consideration, instead of disregarding them completely. The West can only survive if it exemplifies the humanistic values that it claims to hold, and if it acts fairly all over the world.
