And also for not being modest enough, which is entirely subjective, and also enforce an insane list of rules that changes and shifts at a moments notice based on religious interpretation: https://www.bbc.com/news/newsbeat-27599689
Crime rates: The United States has significantly higher crime rates compared to Qatar
Crime Index: United States (49.34) vs Qatar (15.99)

The issue of human rights abuses in Qatar and their portrayal in Western media is complex and nuanced. While there are legitimate concerns about human rights in Qatar, some argue that Western media coverage has been exaggerated or hypocritical in certain ways:
Exaggeration of worker deaths: Some Western media outlets have been criticized for misrepresenting the number of migrant worker deaths related to World Cup construction. Reports often failed to clarify that cited death tolls covered a 10-year period and were not solely related to FIFA projects[4].
Selective criticism: There are arguments that Western media has applied selective criteria in its concerns, focusing intensely on Qatar while overlooking similar issues in other countries, including in the West[3][4].
Lack of context: Some coverage has been accused of lacking nuance or failing to acknowledge Qatar’s recent reforms. In 2021, Qatar enacted significant labor rights reforms, including establishing a minimum wage and prohibiting outdoor work during peak summer heat[3].
Cultural bias: Some Qatari officials have suggested that the intense scrutiny reflects a broader pattern of Western bias against Arabs and Muslims[3].
Hypocrisy: Critics point out that Western countries and companies have benefited from and been complicit in labor practices in the Gulf region for decades[2][4].
Reforms and responsiveness: Some argue that Qatar’s responsiveness to international pressure to improve its human rights situation may make it a more appropriate host for global events compared to other countries with poor human rights records[3].
However, it’s important to note that legitimate human rights concerns in Qatar do exist:
Migrant worker issues: Despite reforms, there are still concerns about the treatment of migrant workers, who make up about 85% of Qatar’s population but do not have the same rights as citizens[3].
LGBTQ+ rights: Human rights groups have documented discrimination against LGBTQ+ individuals in Qatar[3].
Political freedoms: The U.S. State Department reports issues including arbitrary arrest, political prisoners, and restrictions on free expression[5].
In conclusion, while some Western media coverage of human rights issues in Qatar may have been exaggerated or biased in certain instances, there are still genuine human rights concerns in the country that warrant attention and continued efforts for improvement.
sounds a lot like america, and yeah i was talking about gaddafi, not Qatar. But yeah turns out no country is perfect, you fucking imbecile. Way to cite western media too, really non biased! You must be another child masquerading as an adult. Go ahead lets hear about Gaddafi…im all ears, junior
Based on the search results provided, there are several points that suggest the evidence of Gaddafi’s human rights abuses may have been exaggerated or misrepresented due to Western media bias:
Manufactured pretext: The search results indicate that Western powers may have manufactured a pretext to intervene in Libya, claiming Gaddafi was preparing a massacre of civilians[5]. This suggests that the narrative of Gaddafi’s human rights abuses may have been amplified or distorted to justify intervention.
Limited evidence of large-scale attacks: A report cited in the search results states that “Gaddafi’s 40-year record of appalling human rights abuses did not include large-scale attacks on Libyan civilians”[5]. This contradicts the narrative often presented in Western media at the time.
Exaggeration of death tolls: The search results mention that Western media misrepresented the number of deaths related to the conflict. Before NATO intervention, the UN estimated the death toll at around 2,000. However, after six months of NATO intervention, the death toll rose to nearly 50,000, with a significant proportion being civilians[5].
Selective reporting: The search results suggest that Western media emphasized Gaddafi’s crimes while downplaying or ignoring the actions of anti-Gaddafi rebels. This selective reporting may have created a biased picture of the situation[1].
Lack of context: The coverage often lacked nuance and failed to acknowledge the complexities of the situation in Libya, instead portraying Gaddafi and his regime as “evil others” without giving serious consideration to their claims[1].
Post-intervention situation: The search results indicate that the human rights situation in Libya has worsened since Gaddafi’s overthrow, suggesting that the narrative of intervention to protect human rights may have been flawed[2].
Flawed trial: The trial of Gaddafi-era officials was criticized for serious due process violations, raising questions about the legitimacy of some accusations against the regime[4].
It’s important to note that while these points suggest bias in Western media reporting, they do not necessarily prove that Gaddafi did not commit human rights abuses. Rather, they indicate that the extent and nature of these abuses may have been misrepresented or exaggerated in Western media coverage, potentially due to political motivations and bias.
