Speaking at the release of Amnesty's annual report, William Schulz charged that Washington has become 'a leading purveyor and practitioner' of torture and ill-treatment and that senior officials should face prosecution by other governments for violations of the Geneva Conventions and the U.N. Convention Against Torture.

There is a lot of torture world wide I don't see who they could say that the US has "become a leading leading purveyor and practitioner' of torture and ill-treatment".
that would imply that the US does it more and worse than others.
By the way I wonder why that guy William Shultz was silent when Khaddafy made the rounds of Europe a few years ago. He didn't call for his arrest.
Haffaz Assads brother who helped Assad destroy the city of Hama in 1982 war living in Europe wouldn't that imply that no one called for or tried to arrest him.
PLO has usd torture over the years haven't they? . How come Arafat could go back and forth to Europe as he wanted? |
