[bestbits] Re: Delivery of International civil society letter to Congress to follow up from HRC statement

[Kevin Bankston]

A few typos:

Paragraph 4 includes the sentence "That was clearly not the case with the latest practices of the US Government (this is inconsistent with references to “allegations” above)"  I assume we want to cut the parenthetical.  To address the comment in the parenthetical, perhaps change "clearly" to "apparently"?

Paragraph 5: "detailed" is misspelled "detailsed"

Paragraph 6 begins and ends with quotation marks that need to be deleted.  The phrase "which constitute an almost certainly human rights violations" should be "which constitutes an almost certain human rights violation".  

Thanks!
Kevin

We'll see if this leads to spam.  For now, I do not have any way of separating the organisational and non-organisational endorsements, though that is coming.
