American justice may not be superior

Today I read about American-based Human Rights Watch's call on Iraq to end executions:"Iraqi authorities executed at least 65 people in the first 40 days of 2012 for various offenses, including 14 on a single day, Human Rights Watch said Thursday."

Today I also saw this on facebook:


I used to think American justice is superior to the rest of the world. The older I get and the more I learn, the more I realize American justice may not be superior.

Personally, I would like to know the reasoning behind the verdict. I only know what I have read in the press.
