Off with his head

Amnesty International reported that two-thirds of all minors in the world executed by the death penalty are from the United States. Only two countries have refused to sign the United Nations convention on the rights of children--the U.S. and Somalia--which bans executing children under the age of 18. In the past decade, the only other countries to execute children are the Congo, Nigeria, Yemen, Pakistan and Iran. Pakistan and Iran have since abolished the execution of minors. President Bush said the report made him grouchy, and called for the execution of its author.
