US scolds India and Pakistan on human right abuses and religious persecution..
This is the biggest joke. US chiding India and Pakistan.
Well those jokes r much appreciated at times of war especially concerning IRAQ.
How rich!
Ignore the problem, and acting like it doesn't exist because the U.s. has brought it up won't fix it. America takes responsibility for its problems and its wrongs and fixes them. Mock it if you like though, I'm sure a society with such attitudes will flourish, just wash the acid out of your eyes every so often.
UTD, point taken. Now dont you think that its a case where kettle is calling pot black. US occasionaly takes responsibilty for its action, mind you I said occasionaly... this inconsistency leads to confusion, indifference and ultimately puts us and USA on a collision course with the rest of the world.
It's a battle to come out and admit wrong doing and then take steps to correct it and the U.S. has struggle with this concept from its inception; women, black, and minority rights in general have all been tough long fights, and in many places within the United States this fight goes on. The world does respect the United States on such issues as human rights (clearly these past couple years this respect has waned considerably and even more so recently) hence the reports it puts out and the attention they receive. The soldiers that committed the crimes in Iraq are not gathering the information published in these reports but a well funded department within the government and regardless of internal issues they should not hold back it’s findings. The United States deserves criticism over recent acts but what the information the reports bring forth are no less valid. While some will argue that the U.S. should focus less on foreign countries human rights violations and more on its own I believe that the U.S. has the capabilities to do both and should continue to do so. It’s the United States duty to show the world that what happen in Iraq is unacceptable and that it will not happen again but at the same time it must share its knowledge of others who violate human rights.
Come on this has got to be the biggest joke of the week
America condemning pak, india and the rest on human rights abuses!
I mean the amerikkans practicse there sick religion in iraqi prisons freely as the whole world can see!
America has lost all its credibility in regards to human rights not that they had much in first place, they cannot say anything becuase no one will look at it seriously they look like complete hypocrites and they know it.
America has been abusing for decades only now with the availability of digital media its has been captured on film and exposed wholesale to the world

Can u tell me good reason why the latest pictures observed by the US SENATE r not going to be released and published?!
They used to hide and they always will. What Rumsfeld uttered about that these pictures were actually given by the US Army itself and not just been leaked from there is nonsense. Otherwise a GENERAL Meyers wouldnt go to CBS and threat them not to show them on TV and publish them! Would he?!
For fear that releasing the photos will increase danger to U.S. troops as well as international laws that forbid the release of such photos.
I don't believe a threat was made but a request that CBS hold off showing the photos as at the time Iraqi battles were intense and releasing them would have added fuel to the fire.
Oh, screw 'em
Let 'em do what they want with their people.......
Infact, we will set up a training center to teach them some new stuff.
Who cares.....
