Amnesty warns of reckless deportation
So what? According to Amnesty International no terrorist could ever even scolded because it might give him a boo boo. Here's a solution: Pair every terrorist with an Amnesty official to take home and make that official responsible for the actions of the terrorist. If the terrorist commits more terrorism, the official would be deported to the terrorist's country of origin, and the terrorist dealt with on the spot.

Amnesty warns of reckless deportation
The deportation of two Tunisian men accused of planning to murder cartoonist Kurt Westergaard would be an irresponsible act by the Danish government said Amnesty International
It would go against Denmark's international obligations if the two Tunisian men accused of planning to murder Kurt Westergaard were deported, according to a new report by human rights organisation Amnesty International.
The two Tunisian men face an administrative deportation to their home country after they allegedly planned to murder the cartoonist behind the Mohammed drawings. The administrative deportation should mean that they will not be at risk of torture in Tunisia, but Amnesty's new report says otherwise.
Amnesty documents hundreds of cases of torture and abuse in its new report 'In the name of security: Routine abuses in Tunisia'. It says that at least 977 Tunisians have been sentenced under anti-terror laws since 2006. It also says that many civilians have been sentenced in military courts with a minimum amount of evidence.
A letter from Amnesty International was sent to the Danish Justice Ministry last week warning the government not to compromise the UN Convention against Torture and violate human rights by sending the men to a country that routinely ignores its promises to treat returned deportees fairly.
'It is clear to anybody that it is completely irresponsible to deport the Tunisian citizens under the current circumstances, where there is an impending risk of torture and abuse,' said Eva Hesse of the Danish branch of Amnesty. (kr)
