So the topic of China and human rights has emerged. So from the other thread...
I thought it was funny when the US once again released it's list of humans right violations in other countries, but once again left out all the violations in their own country.

I mean, at least the Chinese aren't hypocritical. They at least acknowledge that they have certain ways about them that they practice. The bush admin though, says one thing, does another, then changes the topic when you try and discuss it, or just call you unamerican and try to blow off the criticism.
I find it's funny that China forces it's people into abortions, while bush wants to focre them not to. Either way is the same - lack of free choice. At least the Chinese do it for a utilitarian reason - the control thier population instead of doing it 'because their god says its wrong'.
Same with the human rights violations concerning prisons. The US listed in its report torture, people being held without trial, and people benig locked away for their ideas. Anyone else see the huge glaring irony staring back at the US government for this?
Rendition? Secret prisons? Abu Gharib?
I could go on, but what fun would that be? Anyone else care to comment?
