PRC releases white paper detailing US Human Rights record

Postby West Florida » Thu Mar 06, 2014 9:02 am

Full text

Ahead of HH The Dalai Lama leading the US Senate this morning in prayer, the PRC has published the human rights record and supposed violations of the American government. It can be found above.

I believe that the US has indeed committed grave human rights violations. Most recently the Iraqi occupation comes to mind. By my estimation the Bush Administration and all involved in high level decision making are war profiteers and war criminals. As I understand it the US invaded Iraq to steal it's natural resources and so members of the Bush Admin could make money off it's subsequent occupation.

George W Bush, Dick Cheney, Paul Wolfowitz, Donald Rumsfeld, Condi Rice and the like are all war criminals with innocent unarmed civilian blood on their hands.

Then there's the issue of Gitmo. I am enraged at the fact it has not been closed yet. It is an affront to a constitutional republic such as ours. Major letdown Obama didn't spend more political capital trying to end this human rights abuse.

So yes there are many abuses and egregious violations committed by the US. Iran Contra comes to mind. Other actions committed by the CIA too. However I do not believe that PRC, a one party dictatorship guilty of a holocaust against the Tibetan people, has the prerogative to submit a document such as this.

DO you agree NSG? Which country is guilty of more horrendous abuses? Should PRC rightly accuse the US of these allegations? Are they true. Read the link and express yourself. For instance the Chinese cite guns and gun crime as a human rights violation. Is this a true and correct estimation? I don't see it as such. Just drivel from a communist anti-individual regime.

Nope. Stop being overly dramatic.
Your nation is like a son. What it does right is your merit, as well as what it does wrong is your fault. When you praise it, be lucid and avoid exaggeration. Praising it too much can make it indolent. On the other hand, when you criticize it, be harsh, but do not ridicule it. Do your best to improve it, not through derision or disdain, but through good examples and dedication.

I want a Human Rights Record of Canada. They must be hiding something.
For so long, Mankind has been plagued by division. Division by culture, creed, skin color, religion and nationality. These very divisions have been the cause of most human conflicts. But in the age of globalism, we can finally have that chance to implement a world government where all human beings are seen as equals. Isn't that what everyone wants? World peace? I do. You should support that too. It may not end all conflicts, but the reductions of Man on Man violence will be at an all time low when the entire planet gets administered by one governing body.

Tu quoque would imply that China is admitting to its violations of human rights. This seems like more of a "NO U" than a "You too!" situation.

So with Bieber's antics in the US, this must be Canada's master plan to sabotage the quality of American pop culture. Damn canucks.

Don't mean to bring my opinion into this but the war for profit was a good thing. I know. I am aware of the civilian deaths. I think it should have been handled better.

All nations have pros and cons in human rights, but China's report does not consider the fact that they go to many lengths to repress talk about 6/4, corruption and so on.

If this is trolling it's not very funny. If you don't value human life that's your own personal problem. But even a greedy capitalist pigdog such as myself values human life over money.

While I said "War for Profit". I value the resources more than the money it makes. What is war when you don't plunder?

There isn't a country in the world that hasn't committed some human rights abuses. The whole extraordinary rendition and waterboarding undoubtedly are a blot on the human rights record of the US and sadly the UK who collaborated. The thing to avoid is denying that they ever happened or that they were abuses. Every country is going to point out the failings of every other country and that is a good thing, because it can shed light on things that citizens may not know about their own government. We should welcome this report.

China fingering the U.S. for human rights violations? About as indicting as being accused of statutory rape by Roman Polanski or Woody Allen.
Crimes committed by Muslims will be a pan-Islamic plot and proof of Islam's inherent evil. On the other hand crimes committed by non-Muslims will merely be the acts of loners who do not represent their belief system at all.
The probability of one's participation in homosexual acts is directly proportional to one's public disdain and disgust for homosexuals.
If a political figure makes an accusation of wrongdoing without evidence, odds are probable that the accuser or an associate thereof has in fact committed the very same act, possibly to a worse degree.
