There 38 states that have the death penalty. That is not the whole of the USA as you erroneously stated: Executions Double In 2001 LONDON, April 9, 2002 cbsnews.com (AP) "The figures for China, Iran, Saudi Arabia and the United States accounted for 90 percent of all known executions in 2001." Amnesty International (REUTERS) Governments across the globe shot, electrocuted and hanged more than 3,000 of their citizens last year, more than double the total executed in 2000, Amnesty International said Tuesday. During 2001, at least 3,048 people were put to death in 31 countries, the sharp increase largely the result of a Chinese crack-down on crime that saw the world's most populous nation execute nearly 1,800 people in four months, Amnesty said. The human rights group said in a statement many of those condemned to death could have been tortured to extract confessions, and the total number of executions could be far higher since many killings were deliberately kept secret. "Many cases were in blatant violation of international standards on the application of the death penalty," Amnesty said, calling for the United Nations Commission on Human Rights, sitting in Geneva, to establish a moratorium on all executions. China executed a total of 2,468 people, more than all other countries put together, while Iran's 139 recorded executions probably fell short of the true number of people put to death, Amnesty said. In oil-rich Saudi Arabia, 79 executions were reported along with a multitude of amputations and floggings, while in the United States 66 people lost their lives at the hands of the state, down from 85 the previous year. "The figures for China, Iran, Saudi Arabia and the United States accounted for 90 percent of all known executions in 2001," Amnesty said. Chile abolished the death penalty in 2001 for peacetime offenses and Turkey adopted constitutional amendments to limit its scope, but overall the practice does not seem to be on the wane -- Amnesty said over 5,000 people were sentenced to death during the year, compared to 3,058 in 2000. ©MMII Reuters Limited.

-==THE ANTI-SEMITISM CHARADE==- Only a fool would try to wear a condom as a raincoat, but most Jews think that the trite defense of ANTI-SEMITISM will stretch to protect them from all moral scrutiny. A prophylactic that makes them bullet-proof and even invisible. Do the rules of ethical conduct apply to everyone but Jews? Why is Jewish self-criticism so rare? Why do they keep making the same unprincipled blunders throughout history? They're like transparent clowns who think they're unobservable. Their immorality is, but only to them. The Jewish shield of ANTI-SEMITISM will not protect them from their documented role in dragging America into Iraq and maybe World War III. There has never been more moral and political legitimacy on any point in criticizing American and Israeli Jewry. The documentary evidence of their guilt is overwhelming. As far back as 1996 Israel's Likud spoke of, "removing Saddam Hussein from power in Iraq — an important Israeli strategic objective in its own right...." That's Likuds own words in a 1996 paper entitled "A Clean Break:A New Strategy for Securing the Realm." Sensing the outrageous nature of what they were proposing Richard Perle and the other Jews who wrote noted, "To anticipate U.S. reactions and plan ways to manage and constrain those reactions, Prime Minister Netanyahu can formulate the policies and stress themes he favors in language familiar to the Americans by tapping into themes of American administrations during the Cold War which apply well to Israel." In 2000, these same zionist Jews now joined by Cheney and Rumsfeld plan for Iraqi 'regime change' even before Bush become President in REBUILDING AMERICA’S DEFENSES by THE PROJECT FOR THE NEW AMERICAN CENTURY (PNAC) where they write about "a decisive victory that results in long-term political or regime change." ANTI-SEMITISM is likewise an ad hominem attack upon the character of any critic of Israel. As such, it functions as a threat, used to intimidate and to coerce the critic or potential critics into silence, and to defame their character and to pre-emtively dismiss their reasoning. Thus it is also an offensive weapon, an aggresive Jewish sword to advance Zionist agenda.
