State laws on domestic ordsprog

State laws on domestic and sexual violence fall significantly short of Mexico's international human rights obligations. The definition of incest as voluntary sex is an insult to the thousands of girls who suffer abuse daily. No one, and least of all girls raped and impregnated by their fathers or brothers, should be forced to carry a pregnancy to term.

Preliminary research-most of it published outside the medical literature-indicates that a significant number of our patients have experienced some form of violence and abuse during their lifetime, including elder abuse, child abuse, gang-related violence, sexual abuse, and domestic violence,

During the Balkan conflict, at least 20,000 Muslim girls and women were also raped, with teenage girls particularly targeted. In Myanmar, in Uganda, in East Timor, the bodies of women and girls were and are being violated as part of battle. This kind of violence is not collateral damage. It's a war crime.

Teenage girls in Africa are the most vulnerable population in the world. They do more work than their brothers. They are far more vulnerable to dropping out and being forced into domestic labor ... forced marriages, prostitution.

Violence against women in the family is not a private matter and there is no justification for it. It is a human rights abuse which states are obliged to act against under international law.

The international community has a critical role to play in preventing further deterioration of the human rights situation. They need to continue to pressure the government to respect human rights and to meet their obligations under international law - including by restoring basic freedoms such as the right to peacefully demonstrate.

The authorities are in a position to break this no-win situation. They must live up to their obligations under international human rights standards, and should also implement the provisions of the proposed new law on family violence. This should be done through a coordinated response that includes law enforcement and judicial authorities, as well as health care and other professionals who may assist in the prevention of such violence.

To tell a woman who has suffered through the trauma of rape or an incident of incest and who has been impregnated that she can't terminate her pregnancy because she has not reported it in seven days is a real affront to the sensitivity and trauma of the situation.

Since the 9/11 terrorist attacks the U.S. government has invoked national security and abused executive powers to violate internationally recognized human rights, including the absolute prohibition on torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment. If the U.S. does not recognize its human rights obligations under international law, what reason do other governments have to uphold human rights?

In many parts of the world, women and girls are especially vulnerable to HIV/AIDS because they lack control over most aspects of their life. Cultural expectations and gender roles expose women and girls to violence, sexual exploitation and far greater risk for infection.

Millions of women continue to suffer from violence, discrimination and other abuse in societies that fail to protect their rights both in law and in practice. If the United States fails to take this treaty seriously, how can we expect the same from other countries with little respect for women's rights?

In short, it may be said that on paper the obligations to settle international disputes peacefully are now so comprehensive and far-reaching that it is almost impossible for a state to resort to war without violating one or more solemn treaty obligations.

The scale of China's human rights violations is staggering. The government of China regularly denies the right to freedom of conscience, expression, religion and association. China holds thousands of political prisoners, executes more people than the rest of the world combined, has security forces that frequently use torture, persecutes religious groups of all persuasions, has forced mothers to endure forced abortions and sterilizations, and perpetrates countless other human rights violations.

Hence the American dilemma. How do you convince lenders to lend when you can't even obey your own laws about spending limits? It's one thing to sell short-term debt with a respectable yield, but who will be willing to hold any American obligations - short- or long-term - as the nation's financing needs grow larger relative to its productivity?

The concept of using forced labor as a punishment is against the accepted international human rights principles embodied in many international instruments,
