Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act: Hearing Before the Subcommittee on Courts and Administrative Practice of the Committee on the Judiciary, United States Senate, One Hundred Third Congress, Second Session on S. 825
Governmental torture and killing will not go away. Abuse of our citizens could probably increase, rather than decrease, as our econ omy becomes more globalized and increasing number of our citizens have contact with foreign governments. The United States is a leading Nation in the world and now it is time for the United States to demonstrate that international law indeed means some thing and that the right of our citizens to be free from government sponsored torture and killing will be enforced.
Again, Senator, I thank you very much for the opportunity and commend you for having the hearing and wish you good fortune on adopting some form of legislation.
