Reagan's efforts had more to do with capitalism vs. communism than it did with any genuine concern with human rights. During the Cold War the U.S. had a history of backing brutal and abusive dictators and paramilitary groups in opposition to perceived communist influence. Reagan would've tossed a live grenade into a maternity ward full of newborn babies to fend off the red menace.
He was also a supporter of foreign Terrorism much like Iran's Ahmadinejad.
