Make sure yourself do your own things rightly then to bebuke others.
I also get some datas about US
American Spy Satellites To Snoop On U.S.
The Wall Street Journal reports that the Department of Homeland Security has approved a measure to allow federal civilian agencies and law enforcement to turn American spy satellites on their own citizens for the first time.
Until now, the highly sensitive satellites were aimed mostly at other countries, usually ones we didn't really trust. Occasionally, geologists and NASA scientists got to use them to make things like topographical maps. Letting domestic security folks use them to spy is, the Journal says, "uncharted territory."
Officials have been mulling the plan for a couple years, but often bumped up against questions about whether this kind of snooping would violate the Posse Comitatus Act, which bars military for engaging in law-enforcement activity within the U.S., since the satellites are built for and owned by the Defense Department.
Bigtime Baksheesh In U.S. Contracts In Iraq
USA Today reports that a federal crackdown on corruption involving U.S. contracts in Iraq produced a record number of criminal and administrative cases last month, including the largest bribery case.
Pentagon auditors have questioned $4 billion in contractors' bills for work in Iraq. So far, 29 people have been charged or convicted, 7 of them last month. During the last week of July alone, investigators accounted for four arrests, including those of Army Maj. John Crockerham, his wife and sister for allegedly taking $9.6 million in bribes.

http://www.globalissues.org/HumanRights/Abuses/USA.asp?p=1The leaders of the United States of America are proud to present the picture of being the foremost bearers of human rights.
Yet, they have often been heavily criticized for advancing their own interests and of double standards.
They often have not ratified various international human rights related treaties (and where it has, there have been many, many reservations).
US diplomats were influential in drawing up the 1948 Universal Declaration of Human Rights, yet the USA has not always put (some of their own) words into action.
Human Rights Within the United StatesAmnesty International has long called for the USA to have a greater respect for human rights.
One of the things that they campaign on constantly is the death penalty and the innocent who are sometimes killed as a result. In fact, Amnesty International (where the two previous links are from) has been quite vocal about the death penalty frequently:
The USA is engaged in a cruel, brutalizing, unreliable, unnecessary and hugely expensive activity for no measurable gain.
... There is no evidence that the US authorities have prevented a single crime with this policy ... They have diverted countless millions of dollars away from more constructive efforts to fight crime. And the macabre absurdity is that it creates more victims - the family members of the condemned - often in the name of victims' rights.
The death penalty is a symptom of a culture of violence, not a solution to it. The sooner US politicians begin to find the political courage to educate public opinion rather than hide behind it, the better.
USA: Flouting world trends, violating international standards, Amnesty International, March 1, 2001
There have been about half a million murders in the USA since 1977. In the same period, 716 men and women have been executed. This is a punishment, these bare statistics suggest, reserved for the “worst of the worst” of murderers in the USA. But how can that be true if, for example, learning disabled prisoners are among the condemned? ... It is time they [U.S. leaders] took it upon themselves to measure US standards of decency against the aspirations of the international community on the death penalty.

Is RSF a press agency or political accessory?
When the torch-lighting ceremony for the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games was held at the site of ancient Olympia in Greece on March 24, three men broke away from the cordon to unfurl a flag which showed handcuffs in the form of Olympic rings. In the meantime another man rose from the VIP seat and showed a black banner. They were members of the Paris-based RSF, which is headed by the man in the VIP seat named Robert Menard, the group's secretary-general.
That scenario was the beginning of the destructive campaign staged by the group against the Olympic torch relay in London, Paris and other cities.
On April 7, the Olympic flame had to be extinguished several times during the Paris leg of its relay due to the impudent activities by Tibetan separatist protestors and RSF members. They also reportedly climbed onto the Eiffel Tower to display a banner with the aforementioned "handcuffs".
During the Nagano leg of the torch relay on April 26, RSF members appeared among Japanese right wingers and nationalists. They together put on a despicable performance by throwing articles at the Olympic flame and torchbearers.
People wonder why "Reporters without Borders", a self-clamed protector of journalists and the free press, so passionately wreck the Olympic torch relay in a barbaric manner. Does the group really work for press media, or pursue genuine free press? What they're doing has no connection with free press. What they did also makes people wonder if the group is an Olympics protestor or a political accessory of anti-China forces.
Obviously RSF orchestrated these hostile movements against the Beijing Olympics, according to what they have done during the torch relay of the Beijing Olympic Games.
According to the information uncovered by French newspaper Le Figaro, RSF collaborated with American right-wing political groups to put pressure on those enterprises from the US, Germany and Switzerland to prevent Beijing from winning the Olympic bid in 2001.
As a French journalist disclosed in his book, RSF always spares no effort to do whatever their sponsors tell them to do in order to get the funds they need. Trying to ruin the Beijing Olympics is just one of their methods to seek more money.
RSF is not a press agency but a money-seeking machine since they threw their basic ethical principles away. Ironically RSF claims it has obligations to protect journalists and the free press.
Tibet separatists and RSF came together to destroy the torch relay shamefully to politicize the Olympics and go against the Chinese people's wishes.
There's no doubt RSF was sponsored by stubborn anti-Chinese agencies to defame China and the Beijing Olympics. One thing for sure is that RSF will not last long once the truth comes out in the wash and it loses its dirty funds.
Look the racialism of US.How do you white man discriminate the blacks.
Thank God I am black. White people will have a lot to answer for at the last judgement
Desmond Tutu (1931- ), Archbishop of Capetown, South Africa
The idea that racial or ethnic groups should be persecuted is very popular in the bible. God himself was keen on the extirpation of whole peoples, such as the Amalekites (I Samuel 15:3).
