Tired of ads?

The State department recently released their annual report on human rights abuse.

This year, for the first time, they had to have a line in the media spin saying "just because the US isn't clean that doesn't mean we can't criticise others".

Way to mischartorize what was said. +1 Gepap la-la point for you. Everyone has said torture is bad yet people should still be returned to their native lands rather then be held in the US. It's cheaper and it is more just for them to return home. So far other then UR's title I haven't seen any proof that people were sent home to collect intelligence and instead it seems like they were just sent home to be rid of them.

Things haven't been this bad since Nixon.


It's gotten pretty damn bad.

And people wonder, "who stole Ted Striker's login."

Who the **** hijacked my country and turned it into a bunch of fascist thugs???

You did mention the Canadian citizen again- cheaper to "send them home", OK, fine, perfect- why wasn;t the gentleman, travelling on a Canadian Passport, sent 200 miles to Canada, instead of 5000 miles to Syria!? I am sorry, but that is beyond a bit suspicious.

As for the other statement- well, did they commit a crime under the laws of those other countries? If their crimes were vs. the US, then it is US courts that have to give them trial, no?

I am sure it is "cheaper". Ignoring human rights is always cheaper.

Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

Speaking of foreign countries..

"CARACAS (AFP) - US ambassador William Brownfield said in an interview published that US officials had warned President Hugo Chavez in 2004 of a possible attempt on his life."
