The EU and the US in confronting Iran

When the European Union appears to line its policy up with the United States, we should take notice and examine the policy for yet another instance of “Please America First.”
This article weighs the Security Council Resolution 1929 aimed at Iran- and the further steps taken by the US and the EU’s “package.” The “package” of EU sanctions is found wanting from the standpoint of European values, especially in light of the past, deadly sanctions against Iraq in the 1990s. More Please America First from Lady Ashton? Is the EU once again following the US with regard to Iran?

ECtHR shuts down UK extradition to US – questions conditions in US Supermax Prisons! OH YEAH!

This Author’s long-awaited day when the cruelty and inhumanity of America’s prisons and jails comes under much needed international and European scrutiny has arrived! The ECtHR has put a stop on the extradition of four “terror suspects” until the question into their conditions of confinement in the ADX Florence “supermax” prison is examined. The question is if America’s Eighth Amendment and the current case law with it meet the same conditions as Article 3 of the European Convention of Human Rights. It is my view that American law falls far short of the higher European standards with emphasis on human rights and human dignity. It is also time to tear down the supermaxes!
Well – OHHHH YEAH!
