Shame on Spain’s Congress

In a shameless anti-rights action, Spain’s Congress has moved to terminate certain judicial activities of the Spanish National Court. The Court has been investigating such matters as U.S. torture at Guantanamo Bay, Israeli war crimes in Gaza, and China’s crackdown in Tibet. Hooray for these judges! Their non-territorial attitude and willingness to provide a type of non-State judicial service is admirable and refreshing.

Leave it to Spain’s State to play the anti-rights card so that its sister States throughout this benighted world can retain a free hand in their own and neighboring territories. Foreign governments are “irate” over such tampering with their power to terrorize. Shame on all of these nasty bully-States and their open anti-liberty and anti-rights activism. Hypocrites all.
