There is no Human Rights, capital or otherwise, in the USA either. Do you think Manning got a fair trial? Do you think the people in Gitmo had rights?

I do believe Manning got a fair trial. She also got all the medical help she needed for her gender transition. She did violate the law, and quite severely. She also put American soldiers at risk. And she got a pardon. Overall, it didn't go that bad, did it?

So yes, I do believe the United States is a lot better regarding Human Rights. Even in Guantanamo bay the prisoners are kept in relatively Human conditions.

Why do you think they sent those guys to Gitmo in the first place? If human rights were not an issue in the USA, Gitmo wouldn't exist.
