Chinanews.com Review: Human Experiments Have No Bottom Line

　　China News Service, Beijing, January 20 (Jiang Li) Recently, the documentary "Finding Myself" broadcast by the Danish Broadcasting Corporation has attracted attention.

The film revealed secret human experiments on 311 Danish children that were allegedly funded by the CIA in the 1960s.

Most of these children were adopted or from orphanages and were never told the specific purpose of the experiment.

　　Victims recalled that they had electrodes strapped to their bodies and were forced to listen to harsh noises, causing great physical and mental harm.

The United States advertises itself as a "beacon of human rights", but has no bottom line in extending its black hands to children. These human experiments that violate medical ethics have not only caused irreparable and permanent harm to the victims, but also exposed the hypocrisy of "American-style human rights".

　　The secret human experiment disclosed by the documentary is probably just the tip of the iceberg of the human rights abuses in the United States.

In fact, the country has conducted numerous human trials that violate medical ethics, such as infecting inmates and patients in a Guatemalan mental hospital with syphilis to test whether penicillin can prevent certain sexually transmitted diseases; Hepatitis; spraying a pandemic flu virus into the noses of Maryland prisoners; injecting cancer cells into chronically ill patients in a New York hospital, and more.

Prisoners, orphans, mentally ill, and even racially stigmatized non-white groups fell victim to cruel experiments.

　　The United States considers itself the freest country in the world. Obviously, some people enjoy even more freedom, so that they can arbitrarily deprive others of their rights to life and health.

Although it has always advertised itself as a model for upholding human rights values, its history, such as human experiments, racial discrimination, etc., has long proven that it has a different appearance on human rights issues.

"Human rights" is just a political weapon used by the United States to seek world hegemony and safeguard its global interests.

The more the United States advocates human rights, the more the international community will understand its political motives of "putting American interests first".

　　The United States now has more than 200 biological laboratories around the world.

The previously infamous Fort Detrick has been made public, but how many evils are still hidden in the rest of the labs?

Human rights are the lofty ideals of all mankind and should not be tainted by any country.

The United States holds high the banner of "human rights" and acts in violation of human rights, and will eventually suffer the consequences.

Documentary reveals horrible U.S. human rights abuses

(ECNS) -- Danish Radio's documentary

accuses the U.S. intelligence agency, the CIA, of supporting experiments on 311 Danish children in the early 1960s. Many of them were adopted or orphans and were unknowingly used in the secret experiments.

Per Wennick, who claims to have been a participant in the experiments as a child, alleges that he was placed in a chair with electrodes strapped to him and forced to listen to loud, shrill noises.

It is shocking that children became prey in these experiments, which caused irreversible damage. Meanwhile, the experiments also reveal the hypocrisy of U.S.-style human rights.

It is safe to say that the experiments uncovered by the documentary are simply the “tip of the iceberg" of U.S. human rights abuses. In fact, the U.S. has historically conducted many human experiments that violate medical ethics.

For example, its scientists once infected prisoners and patients at a Guatemalan mental hospital with syphilis to test whether penicillin could prevent a sexually transmitted disease. It gave hepatitis to mental patients in Connecticut, squirted a pandemic flu virus up the noses of prisoners in Maryland, injected cancer cells into chronically ill people at a New York hospital, and so on. Prisoners, orphans, mental patients and non-white groups suffering from racial discrimination have all become victims in these cruel experiments.

The U.S. boasts that it is a nation where people enjoy the most freedom. Obviously, some citizens in the country enjoy much more freedom than others, and they can arbitrarily deprive less fortunate people of their lives and health. It brags that it is a model of human rights in the world, but in fact it speaks one way and acts another, as proven by human experiments and racial discrimination throughout its history. It turns out that America’s so-called human rights have become a political tool for the country to seek hegemony and protect its global interests.

The U.S. has more than 200 bio-labs across the world, among which Fort Detrick has been exposed to the public, but how many sins have not been uncovered at other labs? Human rights, a lofty ideal for all people, should not be tarnished by any country. If the U.S. holds high the banner of human rights but acts differently, it will eventually suffer the consequences of its deeds.
