Iran to Help Plan UN Anti Racism Conference

I've been wondering what form of idiots run the UN. I now know. They aren't your usual form of idiot, but the Super Idiot that never learn from the past. In the last UN Council about Human Rights aka Durban it didn't address any real Human Rights abusers but did condemn Israel and Judaism as the only abusers on the Earth. After that lovefest, the civilized (Western) world rejected the conference's findings and have called for a boycott if it would be repeated next year. So what did the Super Idiots do?

Despite its numerous calls for Israel's destruction, and repeated denials of the Holocaust, Iran has been selected by the United Nations for a leading position in a committee that will plan the 2009 UN World Conference against Racism.

The planning committee, which will meet for the first time in Geneva on August 27, will be made up of an inner circle of 20 UN member-states, to be headed by Libya.

Libya that bastion of Human Rights. Libya where political opponents disappear. Libya where there is no Freedom of Speech, Religion, Protest, or Press. Such an example of Freedom.

The decision to include Iran in the committee has been slammed by UN watchdogs. "As a UN spokesperson against racism, Iran will invert totally the message and mission of the United Nations," Anne Bayefsky, senior editor of the New York-based Eye on the UN, said in a press release.

"Iran is now poised to wrap itself in a UN flag as a lead agent of the next global conference against racism, Durban II," she added, referring to the 2001 UN conference on racism held in Durban, South Africa, which saw unprecedented levels of anti-Zionist rhetoric and calls for Israel's destruction.

And if you think this time it will be different, I have a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you. Iran where gay men are hung for being gay. Iran where a rape victim is killed for being raped. Iran where the Mullahs rule the nation with an Iron Fist.

Bayefsky explained that the structure of the UN's Human Rights Council has effectively been taken over by the countries of the Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC), allowing Iran and Libya access to key roles.

"The states were selected by the UN Human Rights Council and the Council is controlled by the Organization of the Islamic Conference. The majority of seats on the Council are held by the African and Asian regional groups and the OIC has a majority of seats on each of these groups. Western states do not have the votes to block this outrage and it is another example of the hijacking that has occurred of the UN's lead human rights agency," she said.

Which explains very well the lack of intelligence in the UN. And another reason to call for the removal of the United States from the UN. At the very least the United States has to pull its funding from the UN. Let those nice rich Arab states pull their weight, since they wish to control the rest of the UN.
