Just elected to chair the UN Human Rights Council - SAUDI ARABIA - will behead and crucify Ali Mohammed Al Nimr for participating in a protest at age 17 1n 2012, to serve as an example to other dissidents.
'If I die I've had a happy life', he said
Why have we allowed ourselves to become complicit with this grotesque joke called the United Nations?

The parade of dictators and despots taking the U.N. stage on Monday, as the organization marks its 70th anniversary, was nothing short of spectacular.
As were the lies they told without batting an eye to a friendly and respectful audience. U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon has his hand out for an additional $20 billion this year, so let’s look at what American taxpayers are getting for their large chunk (one-quarter) of the U.N’s bills.

Xi Jinping, President of China, said “we must endeavor to meet” the goals of “democracy and freedom.” Meanwhile, he is an iron-fisted ruler of an undemocratic state where 1.3 billion people languish without civil and political rights.
Vladimir Putin, President of Russia, said that without the U.N. — “unique in its legitimacy” — “we would be left with no other rules than the rule of force.”
This from a megalomaniac who gobbled up Crimea and now occupies other parts of Eastern Ukraine by force.
Putin also said, “Everything that contravenes the U.N. Charter must be rejected.” Except apparently Chapter 1, article 1, which commits the organization to maintaining international peace and security and suppressing acts of aggression.
Raúl Castro, president of Cuba, said: “The international community can always depend on Cuba to raise its honest voice against injustice . . . and for . . . international order that really focuses on the human being, his dignity and well-being.” No matter that the Castro brothers have denied elementary freedoms to the people of Cuba for more than half a century.
Robert Mugabe, president of Zimbabwe, said that “respecting and upholding human rights is the obligation of all states” and that “now is our time to leave our own positive mark in the history of human development.” A racist ruthless tyrant, Mugabe spent decades raping and pillaging Africa’s breadbasket until it was a basket case.
Tamim Bin Hamad Al-Thani, emir of Qatar, said: “We affirm our commitment to fight terrorism,” adding that Qatar is “pursuing an approach based on the rule of law, transparency, justice, and human dignity.” This polygamist bankroller of Hamas, with close ties to the Taliban and the Muslim Brotherhood, inherited the country — like his father before him — as a family business.
And then there was Hassan Rouhani, president of Iran, who described his rise to power this way: “Two years ago, the people of Iran in a competitive election with their votes gave me a mandate.” It was an election in which 686 candidates tried to register, eight were allowed to run, and every woman was disqualified.
Rouhani continued: “We propose . . . no country be allowed to use terrorism.” These are the words of the leading state sponsor of terrorism. “Iran . . . has never had the intention of producing a nuclear weapon,” he claimed. But in the words of the IAEA: “Iran has carried out activities that are relevant to the development of a nuclear explosive device.”
To top it off, Rouhani threw in some deep-rooted anti-Semitism: “The inhumane actions of the Zionist regime” lay at the “roots of today’s wars, destruction, and terror.”

"The UN is the leading purveyor of anti-Semitism in the world"
The current prevailing opinion in state departments, foreign ministries, and college lecture halls is that all this is unsurprising, irrelevant, and harmless hot air.
That claim, however, is harder to sustain after listening to the U.N. chief whose outlook and behavior is fashioned in the image of these thugs.
The secretary-general condemned Israel before he thought to criticize “Da’esh [ISIS], Boko Haram, and Al-Shabab.”
He worried that “the fight against terror” and terror itself were a “cycle” of human-rights abuses. Democracy merited one mention near the end of his remarks.
It’s Barack Obama, though, who provided the most pitiful image. Casting but a shadow of America’s former self on the world stage, he stepped into this moral morass for the seventh time in his presidency.
He said: “Democracy in the United States is certainly imperfect. At times, it can even be dysfunctional.”
And for the umpteenth time in his tenure, he trotted out the warmongering, trigger-happy, American straw man: “We see an argument made that the only strength that matters for the United States is bellicose words and shows of military force.” Said no American ever.
The president belittled his opposition at home with his most revealing statement of all: “We see in our debates about America’s role in the world a notion of strength that is defined by opposition to old enemies, perceived adversaries, a rising China, or a resurgent Russia; a revolutionary Iran, or an Islam that is incompatible with peace.”
Since when are China, Russia, revolutionary Iran — still holding American hostages — and the self-proclaimed Islamist brand that is actually incompatible with peace, only “perceived” adversaries?
Obama’s fibs are no less toxic than those of the men who took the U.N. podium when he was done.
He boasted, “The last two decades prov[e] that in today’s world, dictatorships are unstable.”
If we’re not counting Xi Jinping, Vladimir Putin, Raúl Castro, Hassan Rouhini, Robert Mugabe, and Tamim Bin Hamad Al-Thani (and more) — since these tyrants alone are the living embodiment of five decades to the contrary. Bad guys rarely go quietly into that good night.
The US president conceded that Iran, “as of this moment, continues to deploy violent proxies.” But his response was surreal: “Chanting ‘Death to America’ does not create jobs.”
The U.N. at 70 is an institution where the big lie wins, so it falls to an American president to be — at the very least — a truth-teller.
The U.N. at 70 is akin to a false God whose devotees are the morally bankrupt, intimidated, neutered, or ashamed.
Shame on us if it turns 71.

Saudi-led Airstrikes on Yemen Wedding Kill More Than 100 Civilians - Where's the outrage?
Nowhere. Saudi Arabia chairs the UN Human Rights Council.
The UN says at least 2,355 civilians have been killed in fighting since March, when the coalition began launching airstrikes against Shiite Houthi rebels and allied army units, who control the capital and are at war with the internationally recognized government as well as southern separatists, local militias and Sunni extremists.

The United Nations is notorious for singling out Israel almost exclusively for condemnation, while looking away from egregious violations of human rights in many other parts of the world.
The time when a United Nations translator (on an open mike) found it weird that Israel was the only country being singled out for criticism, while human rights abuses raged all over the world
Hot mic catches UN interpreter saying anti-Israel votes are ‘a bit much’
November 2013 - The truth comes out when we think no one else is listening
November 2013 - The truth comes out when we think no one else is listening
Under the mistaken impression that she was speaking only to colleagues, the interpreter uttered the following words into the headphones of every UN delegate, and before a live webcast audience worldwide
I think when you have… like a total of ten resolutions on Israel and Palestine, there’s gotta be something, c’est un peu trop, non? [It’s a bit much, no?]
I mean I know… There’s other really bad shit happening, but no one says anything about the other stuff.”
Laughter erupted among the delegates. “The interpreter apologizes,” said the unfortunate truth-teller, moments later, followed by her audible gasp. I sincerely hope she won’t get fired.
Because the one who should really apologize today is the UN. Founded on noble ideals, the world body is turning the dream of liberal internationalists into a nightmare.
For by the end of its annual legislative session next month, the General Assembly will have adopted a total of 22 resolutions condemning Israel—and only four on the rest of the world combined. The hypocrisy, selectivity, and politicization are staggering.
Listen to the interpreter's words on hot mike here on 1.50 min of the video:

The word Zionism continues to be vilified. But what is Zionism?
Its general definition means the national movement for the return of the Jewish people to their homeland and the resumption of Jewish sovereignty in the Land of Israel.

- UNRWA Officials Operating 12 Separate Facebook Accounts Inciting Anti-Semitism
Report, 9/3/15 (UNRWA is the UN agency in charge of Palestinian refugees only - who are not allowed to resettle anywhere else. They have remained in miserable camps for decades, as a UN demographic tool against Israel.)
- Why is the U.N. Rewarding the Perpetrators?
UN Testimony, 6/15/15 - Why is Saudi Arabia, a perpetrator of egregious abuses against human rights, rewarded with a seat at the UN Human Rights Council? Since then Saudi Arabia was elected TO CHAIR the Human Rights Council.
UN ADMITS Gazans fired rockets from UN schoolsThe UN finally investigated the Palestinian storing of rockets in UNRWA schools and their use of the schools to launch rockets against Israel, all of which constitute grave violations of the Geneva Conventions and international humanitarian law.
Key findings gleaned from the UN report:
- Hamas and/or Islamic Jihad stored rockets in UNRWA schools. The board found, in the case of the UNRWA Jabalia Elementary “C” and Ayyobiya Boys School, referring to the discovery of weapons there on 22 July 2014, that “it was highly likely that a Palestinian armed group might have used the premises to hide weapons.”
- Hamas and/or Islamic Jihad stored rockets in schools that were in active use by children.

History of Israel-UN relationship
In his speech to open the 61st General Assembly of the United Nations in September 2006, then-Secretary General Kofi Anan admitted that Israel is often unfairly judged by the international body and its various organizations. “On one side, supporters of Israel feel that it is harshly judged by standards that are not applied to its enemies,” Annan said. “And too often this is true, particularly in some UN bodies.”

The world supports terrorism against Israel through the UN
Recently, UNRWA educators have been caught supporting terror, but this news, uncovered by the “Elder of Ziyon” blogger, has not made it to the mainstream media. More specifically, the contents of the social media accounts of UNRWA school principals demonstrate blatant anti-Semitism and full support of terror against Israel. As “Elder of Ziyon” writes, “Is it a UN principle for principals to support terror?”
The principals are not alone. A UNRWA teachers group on Facebook includes “inspirational jihadist videos,” jokes about “prescribing” Zionist patients “a rocket in the morning and a rocket in the evening” before eating, photos of children dressed up for jihad and admiration for Hitler.
In 1948, there were approximated 700,000 “Palestinian” refugees (if you could call them refugees- many of them left because the surrounding Arab countries advised them to leave before attacking the Jews, hoping to “send them into the sea.”
Now this number of 700,000 has turned into over 5 million. How does the number of refugees grow? It turns out, “Palestinians” are a privileged group. Not only are the original Arabs who left “refugees” (most of whom have died by now), but their descendants are as well.

UPDATE
Israel's PM Netanyahu blasts UN for its silence on IRAN's threats to ISRAEL on his speech to the UN General Assembly
"The UN won't help peace by trying to impose solutions or by encouraging Palestinian rejectionism,” the Prime Minister stated. “And the UN should do one more thing: the UN should finally rid itself of the obsessive bashing of Israel. Here's just one absurd example of this obsession: in four years of horrific violence in Syria, more than a quarter of a million people have lost their lives. That's more than 10 times the number of Israelis and Palestinians combined who have lost their lives in a century of conflict between us.
"Yet last year this assembly adopted 20 resolutions against Israel, and just one resolution about the savage slaughter in Syria. Talk about injustice! Talk about disproportionality!”
