Amnesty Claims States Block Global Justice

Amnesty International, one of the oldest and most respected human rights groups in the world, criticized states for shielding allies who have committed grave violations. In its 2010 report Amnesty also accused states, like the U.S., of impeding the progress of global justice by refusing to join the International Criminal Court. Amnesty International is an international non-partisan advocacy group. The report details human rights issues in nations around the world. See a NY Times Article on the issues here and the 2010 report here.
