While all Western and plenty other countries actually raised their hands to sign a Human Rights Treaty and this has been in effect for a long time, the US considered this a good thing, but still have not signed or can claim compliance.

BTW.. This has nothing to do with wars and bullshit - they can't even sign and offer their own citizens the basic human rights afforded under the Treaty which is operating in most other countries.

A definition of torture?? Well, yes, folks do like to change definitions of anything when it suits them. Like kids with toys.

BTW... with most soldiers, they do have common decency even when doing some "policing the world" bs and are fair. However, that has nothing to do with the US govt claiming to uphold the terms of the Geneva convention - they have no clue what any convention is, - unless it suited them.

How can any nation make honorable claims, yet still deploy napam bombs (which are on the international banned list), on people? It is little surprise and dissappointing the US has reached this low level on so many issues and also little surprise the US govt is despised by almost all others. It does the US no credit.
