For thousands of illegal immigrants in the US being held in jails all over the country there is no way out, as their cases seldom make it to court. Over the last seven years, 110 detainees have died in the facilities.
So what is the moral lesson of this and similar stories recently published by RT? For some of us, there is nothing unusual about this story because close to 3M Americans, majority of them black men, are in the ever growing the U.S prison-Industrial Complex. Second, this is extension of the U.S global militarism that include setting up of countless prison cells all around the world to convince and in many cases torture people. Yet, Russia is so eager to ship its helpless little orphans into the U.S! Am I missing something here!
