A mere tap on the wrist for abusing prisoners gives the appearance that once again that the United States is not serious about its responsibility to discipline those convicted of human rights violations.

It's just an outrageous situation where people have gone through this system that has been established, such as it is, and the (U.S.) government itself has found there's no reason for them to be held any longer, and yet they continue to be held.

It makes a mockery of any kind of system of justice.

The heaviest sentence imposed on anyone to date for a torture-related death while in US custody is five months -- the same sentence that you might receive in the US for stealing a bicycle. In this case, the five-month sentence was for assaulting a 22-year-old taxi-driver who was hooded and chained to a ceiling while being kicked and beaten until he died.

The US government is not only failing to take steps to eradicate torture, it is actually creating a climate in which torture and other ill-treatment can flourish.

Although the US government continues to assert its condemnation of torture and ill-treatment, these statements contradict what is happening in practice.

These detainees are being held solely for their political beliefs. If the Ethiopian government wants them on trial, it should at least be a fair trial. This will be a test of the independence of the Ethiopian judiciary.
