epicsurvivor… including, of course, America, and Canada, and anyone else who points out the UN’s hypocrisy and failure.
What is considered “admissible” or “inadmissible” at the UN Human Rights council? UN Watch does its usual fine work in exposing them for what they truly are, by using their own words, in the following youtube clip:
And, I’m quite sure that after this viewing this clip, the UN Human Rights Council hates UN Watch, and The NY Sun as well…… (not bad company to be in, jmho)….. from The Sun’s editorial….
It shows actual film clips of the president of the Human Rights Council, Luis Alfonso de Alba of Mexico, thanking various diplomats for their testimony. He thanks a speaker for Zimbabwe talking about the ignorance of a delegate who has criticized human rights under President Mugabe. He thanks the delegate from Cuba for insulting a human rights expert who exposed abuses of the communist regime. When the permanent observer of Palestine asserts that the one that has a “monopoly on human rights violations” is Israel, which, he adds, is the darling of not only the ambassadors of America and Canada but also of the human rights commissioner, Louise Arbour, the observer is thanked by Mr. de Alba. On the clip one can see Mr. de Alba thanking the delegation of Sudan for a statement saying that reports of violence against women in Darfur have been “exaggerated.”
Then one can watch and hear an envoy from Nigeria assert that “stoning under Sharia law for unnatural sexual acts … should not be equated with extrajudicial killings …” Or watch an envoy of Iran defend the Holocaust denial conference. Or watch a defense of the Hezbollah terrorist organization. Or speaker after speaker liken Israel to the Nazis, only to get thanked by Mr. de Alba or whoever is presiding. Then one can watch Mr. de Alba lean back demonstrably in his chair and fold his arms across his chest and adopt a disapproving visage as Mr. Neuer of UN Watch begins his recent testimony. He notes that 60 years ago, Eleanor Roosevelt, René Cassin, and others gathered on the banks of Lake Geneva to reaffirm the principle of human dignity and created the Commission on Human Rights. He asks what has become of “this noble dream” and offers a devastating answer with a reprise of all the human rights abuses on which the council has been silent.
“Why has this council chosen silence?” Mr. Neuer asks. “Because Israel could not be blamed.” He ticks off the actions against Israel, the only ones the council takes. When Mr. Neuer is done, Mr. de Alba says, “for the first time in this session, I will not express thanks for that statement. … I will not tolerate any similar statements in the council.” And he threatens to strike any similar statements from UN Watch from the record of the proceedings.

Sort of an elite human rights violators in denial club.
And don’t forget that we are footing the bill for this foolishness, people.
And more extreme foolishness of the kind that really ticks me off: $500 million pledged to fight childhood obesity with such heartrending tales as these:
Childhood obesity is threatening the health of one-third of the nation’s young people. Nearly 25 million children age 17 and younger are considered obese or overweight, costing $14 billion a year in medical expenses, the foundation said.
“These children live sicker and are likely to die younger if our nation continues to have this problem with childhood obesity,” Dr. Risa Lavizzo-Mourey, the president and CEO of the foundation, told CBS News.
And the proof of this is? Here it is: In 1963, the average 10-year-old girl weighed 77 pounds; now she weighs about 88. A 10-year-old boy who was 74 pounds then is now about 85 pounds, according to the foundation. Hmmmm. Notice that nowhere in the paragraph is it stated that the average 10-year-old child of either sex is also taller than the average child of 1963.
I was born in the late 1950s, and I got the gamut of childhood diseases. Whooping cough, check. Measles, yep, mumps, uh huh, rubella, chicken pox, and I got it from other kids at school who were similarly unvaccinated. Do stresses of childhood illnesses interfere with growth rates/weight gain? Oh, yeah. Now, we have the average 10 year old that has never experienced any of these diseases.
The foundation wants to pay for projects that have the potential of being done on a broad scale and meshing with other efforts. It will emphasize efforts to reach children facing the greatest risk for obesity and related health problems: poor blacks, Hispanics, Native Americans, Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders.
Ah. And in 1963, what were the odds that these same children were extremely undernourished (and undersized) due to poor nutrition/not getting sufficient food to grow properly?
And since this is my day to be ticked off (carefully avoiding having to pay that carbon credit to Nuke), one of my biggest ticker offers is the religion of global warming, and Quantum Limit.com has two podcasts up with an interview with meterologist Jim Clark:
Climate change and global warming is a debate that you do not want to engage in without showing up with a true climate specialist. Otherwise, it’s kind of like the Three Stooges debating quantum physics – there’s a lot of slapstick going on and it’s amusing but it’s also a fundamentally useless exercise. That is why Quantum Limit has invited meteorologist Jim Clark to grant us a two part podcast interview on the subject. Part one covers the real-science of climate change, global warming, man made vs. natural causes and the actual ability to accurately forecast 5 days, 10 days and 100 years into the future. Part II of the Jim Clark interview podcast will be available on Tuesday, 04/03 (it is up now).
Just saw the pics of Nancy Pelosi decked out in full headscarf regalia to crawl at a local mosque. What a contemptible piece of groveling shit.
I’d have a lot more to say about how I feel about that ho (plus we have to subsidize the trip) but it is April and I can’t afford to pay any more carbon credits.
This just shows what a worthless bunch bunch of bleeeeeeeeeep run the UN. Get them the bleeeeeeep out of the USA. We don’t need them and we sure as hell don’t need to pay for them to be here.
Stalking Strangers DNA to fill in the Family Tree. Sigh. Life. Get one.
I thought the UN Watch guy made an excellent case for them being a bunch of terrorist-fellating cowards. I note that they were just indignant that they were called on it.
This DNA thing could be a cash cow. I need to open an account so that people could pay me not to do DNA tests that could establish a family link to them.
#9 Now you’re on to something!
I am perfectly willing to give samples of my DNA to further advance the cause of science after a nice dinner at Ruth’s Chris Steak House, or no, Cattleman’s Steakhouse in Fabens, TX as I haven’t been there in about ten years.
/Why yes, it is lunch time, why do you ask?
Yikes, I have spent TWO HOURS on this computer. I need to go do something to raise the GNP. It is All Nuke’s Fault (that’s my story). Later!
Same here Swamps. BBL.
The U.N….*spit*.
GNP?
What’s that, Girl Needs Pie?
Yes. Yes, she does. A big ol’ slice of apple pie made with tart apples and a topping of crumbled flour, sugar, brown sugar and butter. Mmmmmhmmmmmm. Or a peach cobbler with a biscuit crust from the Georgia peaches picked fresh that day at the uncle’s peach orchard.
Unfortunately, I can now only savor the taste in my imagination which is very sad because I make the World’s Best Apple Pie. Now when I’m having a decadent desert, it’s likely to be an apple and a slice of Havarti. When I think of all the things that I took for granted in my youth, like smooth thighs and jeans that I knew would zip even if I baked a whole pie and ate it all myself, I could just scream. Sure would like to have that metabolism back.
I just keep buying bigger pants. Life’s too short not to have the real thing. If you’re over 50, be thankful and celebrate more often. You never know when it may all come crashing down.
Nuke! He said the “F” word. Fine him! Fine him!
/Gettin’ scared at the prospect of hitting the big one.
OH! That “F” word. You had me rereading the thread trying to find it. Technically, I didn’t say the “F” word…just typed the code for it.
when will they raze the dang UN bldg and put up a Starbucks already!..great read Nuke!
