六、關(guān)于侵犯他國人權(quán) | VI. On Violations of Human Rights in Other Countries |
在國際人權(quán)領(lǐng)域,美國長期不批準聯(lián)合國一些核心人權(quán)公約,對聯(lián)合國一些重要人權(quán)決議投反對票。而且美國依然變本加厲地侵犯他國人權(quán),其中包括海外監(jiān)聽項目侵犯他國公民隱私權(quán),無人機襲擊造成他國大量平民傷亡,以及海外駐軍強奸和殺害當?shù)厝说取?/td> | In the field of international human rights, the U.S. has long refused to approve some core human rights conventions of the United Nations and voted against some important UN human rights resolutions. More than that, the U.S. continued to go even further to violate human rights in other countries, including infringing on the privacy of citizens of other countries with the overseas monitoring project, killing large number of innocent civilians of other countries in drone strikes, and raping and killing locals by U.S. soldiers garrisoned overseas. |
美國中央情報局濫用酷刑。截至2014年12月,在關(guān)塔那摩監(jiān)獄仍有136名囚犯被關(guān)押。(110)美國國會參議院情報委員會2014年12月9日公布的報告披露,中情局向一家公司支付了8000萬美元請其設(shè)計酷刑。中情局為獲取情報對所抓獲的恐怖和極端組織嫌疑人實施酷刑,使用剝奪睡眠、水刑、長期單獨幽禁、將囚犯頭部猛力撞墻和抽打乃至死亡威脅等審訊手段,甚至還有“直腸補液”等駭人手段。(111)在阿富汗的一個拘禁點,其中一名囚犯哈立德·謝赫·穆罕默德遭受水刑達183次。(112)根據(jù)中情局的記錄,對被拘押人施加水刑的特工,很多人都“感到要吐了”,“有些人甚至想哭并覺得自己要窒息了”。(113)有的在押人員還遭遇性侵。缺乏證據(jù)、未經(jīng)任何法庭審判而被關(guān)押長達12年的穆罕默杜·烏爾德·斯拉伊出版了自己在獄中寫的日記。據(jù)德國《明鏡》周刊登載的日記內(nèi)容顯示,斯拉伊遭受了各種折磨,包括毒打、饑餓、不準祈禱甚至性虐待。(114)《洛杉磯時報》發(fā)表社論稱,報告展示了“后9·11時代”美國的恥辱和令人反胃的酷刑細節(jié)。2014年4月9日,美國德克薩斯州在處決墨西哥公民哈米諾·埃爾南德斯·亞納斯過程中,未遵照《維也納領(lǐng)事關(guān)系公約》確保其獲得領(lǐng)事協(xié)助。2014年4月11日,聯(lián)合國人權(quán)事務(wù)高級專員發(fā)言人表示,美國在剝奪獲得領(lǐng)事協(xié)助權(quán)利的情況下處決外國公民構(gòu)成任意剝奪生命行為,違反國際法,包括美國已批準的《公民權(quán)利和政治權(quán)利國際公約》。 | The Central Intelligence Agency abused torture. As of December 2014, 136 prisoners remained locked up in the Guantanamo Bay military prison (www.latimes.com, December 8, 2014). As disclosed in the Senate Intelligence Committee report released on December 9, the CIA paid a contractor 80 million U.S. dollars to come up with ways to torture people. To acquire intelligence from suspects of terrorism and extremism, the CIA used brutal methods, such as sleep deprivation, waterboarding, long-term solitary confinement, slamming prisoners' head against the wall, lashing, death threat and even the appalling "rectal rehydration" (www.intelligence.senate.gov, December 3, 2014). Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, a prisoner held by the CIA in Afghanistan, was tortured with water-boarding for 183 times (www.foxnews.com, April 1, 2014). According to CIA records, many agents implementing waterboarding felt sick, wanted to vomit, and some wanted to cry and felt suffocated (www.intelligence.senate.gov, December 3, 2014). Some detainees also underwent sexual assault. Mohamedou Ould Slahi, held in Guantanamo for 12 years without evidence and court trial, published a diary he wrote in prison. According to the diary, published by German weekly Der Spiegel, Slahi suffered from a variety of tortures, including savage beating, starvation, prohibition of prayer and sexual abuse (www.spiegel.de, January 20, 2015). The Los Angeles Times said in an editorial that the report showed American post-9/11 shame, as well as stomach-turning details of torture. On April 9, 2014, the U.S. executed Mexican citizen Ramiro Hernandez Llanas without granting him access to consular assistance, a flagrant violation of the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations. On April 11, 2014, the spokesperson for the UN high commission for human rights slammed the U.S. saying that its execution of foreign nationals while depriving them of the rights of obtaining consular assistance constituted an act of arbitrary deprivation of life, which violated the international law, including the International Convention on Civil and Political Rights approved by the U.S. |
大規(guī)模海外監(jiān)聽項目侵犯他國主權(quán)和公民權(quán)利。自2013年6月愛德華·斯諾登曝光美國的“棱鏡”項目以來,美國當局被揭露出的監(jiān)聽項目不斷增多,范圍不斷擴大,甚至包括聯(lián)合國秘書長、德國總理、巴西總統(tǒng)等多達35個國家和國際組織的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人。(115)2014年1月2日,《華盛頓郵報》報道,美國國家安全局代號為“攻克難關(guān)”的量子計算機研發(fā)項目,目的就是為了破解目前全球互聯(lián)網(wǎng)常見的各類密碼,竊取政府、企業(yè)、銀行等機構(gòu)的加密信息。(116)另一個代號為“量子”的項目,通過“間諜、電腦生產(chǎn)商或不知情使用者”等渠道,把微型電路板或USB存儲卡安裝到全球近10萬臺目標電腦之中,再通過接收這些設(shè)備發(fā)出的無線電波,獲取電腦中的數(shù)據(jù),并用來針對目標電腦發(fā)起網(wǎng)絡(luò)攻擊。(117)“碟火”和“優(yōu)選”項目,每天搜集來自全球各方的多達2億多條手機短信,以獲知手機用戶的所在位置、聯(lián)系網(wǎng)絡(luò)或信用卡詳情。(118) | Massive overseas surveillance program violated other countries' sovereignty and civil rights. Ever since Edward Snowden blew the whistle on the PRISM data mining program of the National Security Agency (NSA) in June 2013, more surveillance programs of the U.S. authorities were revealed, and in larger scales. The NSA intercepted phone conversations of 35 world leaders, including Secretary-General of the United Nations, German chancellor and Brazilian president (www.theguardian.com, October 25, 2013). According to a Washington Post report on January 2, 2014, the NSA had a quantum computer development project, coded as "Penetrating Hard Targets," for the purpose of cracking common passwords on the Internet, and stealing encrypted information of government organs, enterprises and banks around the world (www.washingtonpost.com, January 2, 2014). In another project, code-named "Quantum," the NSA installed micro circuit boards or USB storage cards in nearly 100,000 computers around the world, through the channels of "spies, computer makes and unwitting users," obtained data from the computers via receiving radio waves emitted from these devices, and launched cyber attacks on target computers (www.washingtonpost.com, January 14, 2014 and www.huffingtonpost.com, January 14, 2014). Another program, codenamed "Dishfire," collected up to 200 million mobile phone text messages each day from around the globe, while program "Prefer" conducted automated analysis on these messages to acquire users' locations, networks and credit card transaction details (www.theguardian.com, January 6, 2014). |
頻繁使用無人機造成他國大量平民傷亡。據(jù)統(tǒng)計,截至2014年11月24日,美國無人機在針對41人的襲擊中卻導(dǎo)致了1147人死亡,相當于每殺死一個“壞家伙”,就會導(dǎo)致包括婦女和兒童在內(nèi)的28名平民的死亡。(119)在也門,自2014年初至4月中旬,美國的無人機轟炸和空襲已經(jīng)導(dǎo)致約753到965人的死亡,至少81名平民被炸身亡。(120) | Frequent use of drones producing massive civilian casualties in other countries. Statistics showed that as of November 24, 2014, U.S. drones claimed the lives of 1,147 people in attacks against 41 persons, which meant the death of 28 civilians including women and children to kill every 'bad guy' the U.S. went after (www.theguardian.com, November 14, 2014). In Yemen, U.S. drone bombing and air strikes killed estimated 753 to 965 people, including at least 81 civilians, from the beginning of 2014 to mid April. (www.washingtonpost.com, September 11, 2014). |
美國海外駐軍侵犯人權(quán)事件時有發(fā)生。2014年7月25日,駐扎在意大利北部維琴察附近的美軍士兵格雷·拉馬庫斯和艾德思·麥克考夫被控強奸、毆打一位懷有六個月身孕的羅馬尼亞婦女。(121)10月15日,菲律賓警方指控美國海軍一等兵約瑟夫·斯科特·彭伯頓謀殺一名菲律賓變性人。(122) | Frequent violation of human rights by U.S. troops overseas. On July 25, 2014, two American soldiers based near the northern Italian town Vicenza, Gray Lamarcus and Ides McCough, were accused of raping and beating a six month pregnant Romanian woman (www.thedailybeast.com, July 25, 2014). On October 15, 2014, the Philippine police accused American marine Joseph Scott Pemberton of murdering a transgender (www.cbsnews.com, October 15, 2014). |
對待國際人權(quán)法我行我素。迄今為止,美國仍然不承認發(fā)展權(quán)是一項人權(quán)。在2014年9月人權(quán)理事會第27次會議通過有關(guān)“發(fā)展權(quán)”的決議時,美國再一次成為唯一投反對票的國家。(123)美國雖然在1977年就簽署了《經(jīng)濟、社會和文化權(quán)利國際公約》,但至今沒有批準該公約。美國盡管宣稱重視保護婦女兒童的權(quán)利,但簽署《消除對婦女一切形式歧視公約》已經(jīng)34年卻遲遲不予批準,簽署《兒童權(quán)利公約》19年后亦未批準。此外,美國為了回避自身責任,在外債與人權(quán)問題上態(tài)度消極。2014年3月和9月,聯(lián)合國人權(quán)理事會第25次會議和第27次會議先后兩次通過“外債對人權(quán)影響”的決議,美國均投了反對票。(124) | Take its own way on international human rights law. To date, the U.S. still denies that the right of development is a human right. In September 2014, when a draft resolution on the right of development was tabled for a vote at the 27th session of the Human Rights Council, the U.S. once again was the only nation to vote against it (www.ohchr.org, adopted resolution A/HRC/RES/27/2). Though the U.S. signed the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights in 1977, it has not ratified it so far. Though the U.S. claimed it valued the rights of women and children, yet 34 years after it signed the Convention on the Elimination of all Forms of Discrimination against Women, it has not ratified the treaty. It has neither ratified the Convention on the Rights of the Child 19 years after signing it. Besides, the U.S. remained inactive on foreign debts and human rights to evade its responsibility. It voted against the draft resolution of "the effects of foreign debt on the enjoyment of all human rights" at meetings of the UN Human Rights Council in March and September in 2014 respectively (UN document A/HRC/RES/25/16). |
