  • by the way they haven't ignored american crimes if you just look up one of their latest reports. it was a six year study behind the thousands of juveniles in american prison for life.

  • what you guys are saying is depressing the crap out of me. seriously! what about oxfam? I mean is there any hope or should we just all give up?

  • Both HRW and Amnesty international spred lies all the time just last year they accused the Libyan gov of hiring african mercenaries this was later proven to be false due to this claim 100s of African migrant workers and black Libyans where killed and tortured 

    the town of Tawerga (a black Libyan town) was complete destroyed the town is still empty today

  • American propoganda sure burma is not perfect far from it but its sick when you ignore the crimes of America and Israel every day Israel commites crimes but you ignore it

    HRW is an American propoganda tool dont trust them for any info
