This is a canard. The USA is practicing dangerous and highly questionable
international doctrine and is seriously threatening Constitutional
protections and human rights at home as well. When someone speaks about this
it is dishonest to ignore the truth in what they are saying because they
aren't whipping up on your favorite targets. That these others obviously
have a long list of wrongs on their plates does not in the least excuse
ignoring our own or ignoring those who speak about them.
