U.S. Act on "Suspects in Terrorism" Blasted

Korean Central News Agency of DPRK via Korea News Service (KNS)   Pyongyang, October 12 (KCNA) -- U.S. Congress recently adopted an act on dealing with "suspects in terrorism" on the initiative of the Bush administration. This act legalizes military trials and torture of "suspects in terrorism" in the U.S., making it virtually impossible for the captives to make any appeal against harsh torture and other abuses.
    A signed commentary of Minju Joson Thursday terms this a wanton violation of international law and an outright challenge to the international community calling for respect for human rights.
    The commentary goes on:
    The adoption of the act revealed before the international community the true colors of the U.S. as a rogue state made up of hooligans who do not bother to commit the whole gamut of crimes to serve their own interests in defiance of international law.
    If the U.S. high-handed and arbitrary practices are allowed in the field of human rights, it will adversely affect the sound progress of the international community.
    This proves that the U.S. is not only abusing human rights but taking the lead in inciting these crimes in the international community.
    The reality clearly indicates that the U.S. is the world's biggest human rights abuser.
    Such being a stark fact, the U.S. is finding fault with other countries over human rights abuses. Nothing is more hypocritical than this practice.
    Its high-handed and arbitrary practices will get it nowhere. This will only invite thorough isolation and destruction.
    The U.S. had better bear this in mind and behave itself.
