Moreover, the United States has been squandering much of its capacity to promote human rights internationally. In responding to the terrorist attacks on its own soil on September 11, 2001, the US has resorted to such measures as prolonged indefinite detention without charges, trials before military commissions lacking due process safeguards, and cruel, inhuman, and degrading treatment of detainees, including torture.
而且，美国在国际上浪费了大量促进人权的能力。美国针对发生在自己领土上的9/11恐怖袭击采用了未经指控延长拘押、缺乏合理程序的军事审判以及包括酷刑在内羞辱在押人员等手段。
