China issued on Thursday the Human Rights Record of the United States in 2007 in response to the Country Reports on Human Rights Practices for 2007 issued by the U.S. Department of State on Tuesday.

Released by the Information Office of China''s State Council, the Chinese report listed a multitude of cases to show the human rights situation in the United States and its violation of human rights in other countries.

The report says the United States reigns over other countries and make arrogant and malicious attacks on their human rights issues, but mentions nothing about its own human rights problems.

By publishing the Human Rights Record of the United States in 2007, the report says it aims to "help the people have a better understanding of the real situation in the United States and as a reminder for the United States to reflect upon its own issues".

The report reviewed the human rights record of the United States in 2007 from seven perspectives: on life and personal security, on human rights violations by law enforcement and judicial departments, on civil and political rights, on economic, social and cultural rights, on racial discrimination, on rights of women and children and on the United States'' violation of human rights in other countries.

Haha this is China's way of saying "two can play that game USA":D

When I checked DemocracyNow! today, I discovered we took China off our Human rights Abuser list. Nice, especially when they've gotten steadily more authoritative than they were in Tainenmen in 1989. As with any Olympics the government cracks down on ugly dissent. But, of course, in the lead up to the Olympics. By the time the torch comes their protestors will be hidden in jails, their homeless behind walls, and their air...well unless they make the bubble, they'll still have the worst breathing air in the world since Chernobyl.

But, yes, we are the biggest hypocrites in the world when it comes to this. And I mean literally, the BIGGEST, hypocrites in the world.

Vive le French fry!

LOL! Nice to see the CCP knock the Americans off their high horse.

I grow steadily tired of the U.S.A. talking about other governments like they have some place to preach about human rights, or aggression towards other countries.

America as a whole has a very very very selective memory :P, thanks mainly to our educational system and media.

That's nice to see. And I found it funny in the CIA report that Colombia, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Israel and others were exempt from the list of worst human rights abusers.
