I read an article that pissed me off. Basically, China responded to their deplorable human rights record by saying the US is no better than them! Even if we have screwed up a little bit, that does not take away from the fact that they are the worst.
First off, they attacked our war on Iraq. They blame us for taking soveriegnty away from the Iraqis, as if Sadaam really empowered his people. Last time I checked, they have more freedoms now than they ever had with Sadaam, unfortunately, they are fighting amongst each other. Although we toppled Sadaam's gov and initiated this situation, we are not the ones intentionally killing civilians, thus, our human rights record isn't bad. Additionally, all the prisoner abuse crap, although it should never happen, are isolated occasions, and thanks to our media, every instance of it is covered and makes situations look worse than they are. In China, they could abuse millions and you'd never know. What a joke... seriously...
