many countries have human rights only in books......
thanx start such kind of discussion
perhaps with the new Obama administration coming into power soon, we can cut down on AT LEAST the human rights violations that this country has been committing (gitmo, abu graeb, phone-tapping, the whole war in Iraq over false pretenses, etc.)
at least I'm hoping so...
