 A police force acting responsibly would never have allowed such a tragedy to occur. |
| Attacks that intentionally kill and maim civilians flagrantly violate the most basic humanitarian principles. These are among the very worst kinds of crimes, and all states have an obligation to bring the perpetrators to justice. |
| Given Bahrain's strategic value, Washington may be reluctant to criticize its ally, but a failure to do so could result in growing anti-U.S. sentiment in the kingdom. |
| In the courtroom, as at the voting booths, there is little tolerance for challenges to the ruling party's hegemony. |
| Jordan, Egypt and Algeria all have a documented history of torture. Neither Britain nor any other country should consider returning people to such countries where they face the risk of torture. |
| Jordan's General Intelligence Department, prisons and ordinary police stations all have known records of abuse. By seeking Jordanian promises to treat these returned persons differently, the U.K. is confirming that the risk of torture continues. |
| King Abdullah should order an independent investigation into Jordan's torture problem without delay. Political reforms won't mean much unless citizens can engage in peaceful political activity without fear of arrest and torture. |
| President Chirac should tell him that this persecution undermines Egypt's professed commitment to democratic reforms, and threatens improved relations with France. |
| Reform means not only changing laws but also holding abusers accountable. |
| The blood is still on the sidewalks, and already the government is blaming the Sudanese refugees and migrants. Given Egypt's terrible record of police brutality, an independent investigation is absolutely necessary to assess responsibility and punish those responsible. |
| The government is punishing judges just for doing their job. It should be investigating the widespread evidence of voter intimidation, not shooting the messengers who reported the fraud. |
| The government must be held accountable. |
| The high loss of life suggests the police acted with extreme brutality … A police force acting responsibly would not have allowed such a tragedy to occur. |
| The Iranian authorities marked International Women's Day by attacking hundreds of people who had peacefully assembled to honor women's rights. Once again, Iran's government has signaled that it is ready to use violence to suppress peaceful public assembly of any sort. |
| There is still torture in Jordan, especially with regard to security suspects, ... All the good reasons that prevented the U.K. from deporting people to Jordan before August 10 remain unchanged by this agreement. |
