UN Issues Scathing Assessment of US Human Rights Record

The U.N. Human Rights Council adopted a scathing report today, consisting of 348 recommendations that address myriad human rights violations in the United States.

...........Wot? So you're saying you like the UN now? Make up your damn mind ffs.
 
Too late, the Socialist Global Order already happened.

That's why we're all posting using our Trilateral Commission chips embedded in our fingers from UN/FEMA death camps.

Don't forget the RFID chips and the Weather Modification.

Oh yeah, and I don't like them putting chemicals in the water that turn the friggen frogs gay! *Proceeds to destroy whatever is in front of him at that given moment*
 
I see your arguments are still addled. Figures.


You sarcastically said the following.

I sarcastically replied to your sarcasm with the following.



Yet for some reason you are not able to grasp that. Figures.

I was referring to this:

Which is spam.
 
Alex Jones doesn't have **** to do with what I posted.

The UN is the Biblical "Whore of Babylon" reincarnated.

Oh great now you're gonna get Biblical on us. Do us all a favor and...... don't?

Yeah and you don't worship globalist anti-American entities that seek to control us and suck our country dry.
 
No reason to give a crap what these people say. Talk about the pot calling the kettle black! Especially when the kettle isn't black at all.

And why would we want to imitate "Scandinavia and other parts of Europe?" :confused:

I'm content to follow our own American model. We've managed to muddle along well-enough over the centuries. :coffeepap:

Yeah, why learn from other people when we can just stroke ourselves in front of a mirror ?

What do you expect to learn? Sweden is well on its way to becoming an emirate. A good part of Europe is commiting cultural suicide. We can learn from their mistakes.

The world should emulare America, not the other way around.

Says the guy who says it is ok for Saudi Arabia to use U.S. White Phosphorus on civilians.
 
No, that's not happening.

Please don't use words you don't understand.

You are right, it has already happened.
The Swedish Prime Minister added that Sweden has no intention of ever criticizing Islam. As is customary, Expressen refrained from asking the PM if his comments should be taken as an indication that Sweden would stop criticizing such Islamic practices as torturing bloggers, executing infidels and oppressing women.

It is hard to say what concessions Sweden may have given King Salman in exchange for normalizing relations. Sweden may even have agreed to further the cause of Islam back home by, for example, promising to build new mega-mosques and giving greater influence to local imams.

Sweden's Minister for Culture and Democracy, Alice Bah Kuhnke, has already promised to initiate a "national strategy against Islamophobia" -- meaning any criticism of Islam or mass immigration.

If the Swedish-Saudi deal is as conjectured, Saudi Arabia will have obtained de facto veto power over Sweden's foreign policy -- and perhaps its domestic policies.

From now on, it will be hard to take seriously Sweden's claims to be a humanitarian and feminist superpower.

This is referring to discrimination against minorities, against women, police brutality, mass-surveillance, and Guantanamo Bay crimes...

They must inform themselves from watching Rachel Maddow. Pretty rich coming from countries in which many of them don't even have freedom of speech.
 
There's also 20+ pages of improvements that have been listed that need to be addressed. Granted, we've come a long way, but we've still got a looooooong way to go before we're up there with the likes of Scandinavia and other parts of Europe.

Yet they miss some things that are actually legitimate. I mean, they could have condemned us for selling arms to Saudi Arabia, which they then use to carry out war crimes in Yemen. Maybe they didn't want to upset the oil cart.
