So what! Singer the israeli apologist is presumably trying to contrast how evil the arabs are compared to the israelis.
We all know these are repressive and vile regimes. It is taken as given that they mistreat dissidents, practice torture, censorship, media control and pass repressive laws. This is what despots do. No one needs a report to tell us this. It is countries that call themselves democracies that we hold to higher standards. It is countries that can be influenced to do the right thing that we pressure to change. It is countries where regime change means elections not war that are scrutinised for corruption, repression and cover ups. It is countries that follow the rule of law and have an independent judiciary that are able to change their ways. All the rest are just authoritarian despots and the west should have nothing to do with them. They should be isolated until they can agree to join the civilised nations. Pity that would deprive us of oil etc and so we all turn a blind eye. Shame humanity shame Posted by mikk, Monday, 21 December 2009 1:16:00 PM

How can this be true?
Surely the abuses referred to run counter to the fundamental tenets of Islam? It must be a lie from Shaitan and the Zionists! Posted by HermanYutic, Monday, 21 December 2009 2:02:30 PM

Now you can tell us something we don't know Mr Singer,these terrible regimes how dreadful but I did not see the US Govt shy away from using the despotic Governments to torture prisoners from IRAQ.
You remember IRAQ Mr Singer,and remember Gaza where you gloss over the crimes committed by the IDF and gloss over the murder,theft and bastardy by the settlers towards the Palestinians whose land they are thieving. We already know the Arab world is a mess,but one seems to find the hand of the US, French, Brits,handing over Palestine to the Israeli Zionists,the force able removal of Arabs from there homes,the confiscation of Arab lands still going on,and you keep telling us what a fine democracy Israel is,I think you talk a load of rubbish,dont you have enough problems with trying to shift the blame elsewhere Posted by John Ryan, Monday, 21 December 2009 11:09:13 PM

More Zionist propaganda:
The Jordanian National Centre for Human Rights (NCHR) has issued a report which finds that Islamist parties are the least concerned with human rights. http://www.jordantimes.com/?news=22520 How can that be, with all the exhortations for brotherly love emanating from the Koran?

It's appalling but consider how western governments are creeping towards the same abuses under the guise of the 'war on terror'.
The full report is worth a read!
