Гулаг на Гуантанамо
Jun. 3rd, 2005 06:46 pmЯ думаю, что это заявление Международной Амнистии наносит ей не меньше вреда, чем фотографии Линди Ингланд из Абу Граиба.
Почему бы этим добрым людям не пересечь границу и не посмотреть, а как же обращаются с зэками на "Острове Свободы"? И дают ли им охранники Коран, Библию, Тору, Махабхарату, Упанишады, Книгу Боконона почитать, когда зэкам того захочется?
Ну или сами бы книжку почитали. В трёх томах. Она так и называется: "Архипелаг Гулаг".

А вот Щаранский молодец.
"In Guantanamo Bay, there was a very serious violation of human rights and it's very important to deal with this and to correct it," said Natan Sharansky (search), a former Soviet dissident and political prisoner who was a prominent member of Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon's cabinet until May 2. "But the comparison of Amnesty International is very typical, unfortunately, for this organization, which has no moral clarity."
Sharansky argued that Amnesty International compromises its work by refusing to differentiate "between democracies where there are sometimes serious violations of human rights and dictatorships where no human rights exist at all."
"This comparison between gulag and Soviet Union and United States of America, erases all these differences," he said. "It makes moral equivalence between these two very different worlds and that's unfortunately very a typical, systematical, mistake of Amnesty International."
