The United Nations' Universal declaration of Human rights contains that passage.\nhttp://www.un.org/Overview/rights.html

That is an excellent question. Of course, we don't to the torture ourselves, we outsource it to places like Egypt and Saudi Arabia. It is appalling that a country that prides itself on human rights now conpsires to violate the Geneva convention while attacking other sovereign nations for the very same crime. I, for one, and deeply ashamed.

U.S. is definately at the top of the list. But what gets me is all these people using emotinalism and saying that "human rights" are being violated.  How is it a violation of human rights to tell people who entered this country illegally, got jobs, and basically are squatters and cheaters that at long last, YOU MUST DO THE RIGHT THING!  \n\nI think they do not understand what the definition of "Human Rights" is.  They are not being treated inhumanely, they are actually fortunate. Because they are being treated as any other American Citizen who breaks the law.  ACTUALLY they are being treated BETTER than any other American Citizen who breaks the law.  How many U.S. citizens do you know, can break the law, admit to it, protest about it....and not be punished unless or until congress decides to re-write the law in an effort to be as fair to THEM as possible.  Come on!  Just because they took low paying jobs and work hard at them, does not mean that they are free to break the law.  And if we allow them to do it, then the country they are so eager to live in will cease to be the country it is supposed to be.  \n\nIf what illegal immigrants want to do is to work, raise families, and live in a free society. Then, follow the LEGAL process to do so, learn the language, and the culture, pay your taxes, and become an American the right way!\n\nDon't break the law and then scream victim! You are not victims.  The tax payers who support social programs are victims, the people who migrate to this country and become legal citizens are victims.  Illegal immigrants are people who made a "CHOICE" to do the WRONG thing, and think they should be excused or rewarded for that choice.  I say WAKE UP, take responsibility for your actions, and GET LEGAL or leave.

Legally it's the United Nations  running the world.  Whatever happened to Democracy?  Even our military is being controlled by the United Nations.  Our country is slowly losing it's right to free choice and free speech.

With the latest reports out of Iraq and across the world, it is evident that the United States has broken many of the U.N. charter rules.These include torture and the basic rules of war. I know that this is an unpopular choice, but sometimes the correct response is not always the most popular.

The government is taking this whole thing WAY too far. They all need to be overthrown.  Theres only so many freedoms you can take away before the ppl revolt.  And it is a right we have as human beings to revolt against oppressive rule.\n-Duo

This is the best question I have seen on here. What a wonderful idea. When will the human rights activists start to realise that victims also have rights!! An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.

After a bit of snooping I was unable to find any news regarding increased violence or other discriminatory actions vs. women's groups in the United States. \n\nAccording to Amnesty International, discrimination against women still exists in 36 countries.  I'll include in my sources a link to a recent example of this in Iran.\n\nHope that helps,\nArmus

To some extend I agree with you. There must be an international ethics for everybody to obey. Sue them...

Looks like another "do my homework" question.\n\nInstead, I'll help you with your research. Unfortunately, you left out the part about WHICH human rights act. However, since you mention European, I'm going to guess EU. \n\nHere's a place you might start: http://www.liberty-human-rights.org.uk/issues/human-rights-act.shtml

This is not the current events category.  I don't think much progress is being made toward accepting gay rights, if that's what you're wondering.
