Well, folks, you can’t spell “unfathomably stupid” without “UN.”
The United Nations has had more than its fair share of dismal failures since its inception in 1945, but its latest announcement may be the most harebrained yet. When compiling a list of the worst violators of human rights in the world, who comes to mind as number one for you?
Syria remains entrenched in a civil war that has killed nearly a half a million people. President Bashar Al-Assad has used chemical weapons on entire villages of men, women, and children. Perhaps North Korea, where nearly 1 out of every 100 citizens resides in prison camps, and where the government has just told its people to prepare for starvation. Or would you think of Iran? Cuba? Venezuela? Saudi Arabia? Sudan? Somalia? Egypt? Afghanistan? Pakistan? Russia? China? Burma?
Strong cases could be made that any of these countries should top the list of human rights violators. But the United Nations has someone else in mind. An organization that gets more than 1/5 of its funding from American taxpayers has deemed that one of our closest allies is the most evil country on planet Earth.
To read how the UN attempts to justify their list, and discover who they appointed as their “independent” human rights investigator–hint: he compared Israel to Nazi Germany–continue on the next page:
excellent, or rather, stUNning
The united nations wore out what little standing they ever had years back. We know every$#%&!@*group on the planet has a blue lunchbag.
California chooses Bernie’s $15 hr. min. wage, passing right by Hillary’s $12 hr. proposal. How embarrassing… to have the biggest, most important state render you obsolete, dictating your next flip flop, while you are still interviewing for the job (campaign). Lotta cities for $15. Why Bernie gets things right in the beginning.
Hillary, “progressive” for 8 months. Bernie, progressive for 50 years… Do you really know the candidates?? Seriously now… maybe why you never hear Bernie saying he “needed to evolve” with “learning moments” yuh think??Bernie has foresight and good judgment in the beginning, when it matters. Hillary blows BEHIND the social / political winds. She then apologizes later to make it all better. She is a centrist with bad judgment. Nothing more. We expect the leader of the free world to have Bernie’s judgment and character.
Hillary voters are political simpletons who like bright / shiny things: “first woman president!! We don’t know or care about her mistakes, other candidates, or about our own lives really. She will be the first woman though!!” You need to start caring.
Hillary mistakes: TPP, Iraq, Libya, Patriot act, Afghanistan, DOMA/Gay rights, Syria, Keystone pipeline, War on drugs, Carbon Tax, No Child left behind, Bank Bailouts, Campaign finance/citizens united (has pacs and superpacs now!), NAFTA (said it was a bad idea), Crime Bill (apologized for ‘superpredator’ gaffe, crack-cocaine sentencing disparity), welfare reform bill (apologized for), Banking reform (wants to make it more expensive for traditional banks to be big, shadow banking reform only), Wall street reform (has nothing here yet, a future flip flop), death penalty (still confused on this one and will come to Bernie’s stance soon), fracking (also still confused, will move to Bernie’s stance), Immigration (voted to kill the bill after backing it initially)….. regarding the TPP, she will again be for it once elected. Why? Corporations wrote and enforce the TPP terms. Corporations write her platform…. Compare. Decide. Vote.
This is what Obama has planned for the US? A UN that doesn’t have a clue? This is totally unAcceptable! GET THE US OUT OF THE UN, NOW!
What country was appointed head of human rights at the UN, again?
Says the people who own the seat at the human rights chair at the UN ( Saudi Arabia ) the most prolific human rights abuser in the world. Any Arab country could easily fit this bill!
