From some of your other posts I am assuming that you are a U.S.

throwing slings and arrows at another country about the use of
"torture"? Or, for that matter, violation of "human rights"? I thought
that torture was an officially approved activity in the U.S. - at
least I read that Bush had condoned it.

Yes, you are probably correct.... If you want to avoid answering the
question of whether a citizen/resident in a country that condones
torture should condemn torture in another country.

I think the word you are looking for is "hypocrite".
