I mean, seriously; no rational person can argue in favor of our continued membership in this corrupt, moribund relic of the post-WWII era – from PJ Tatler:
Unless something intervenes to stop it, Syria is about to become a member of the United Nations Human Rights Council. It’s not necessary to belabor the absurdity of such a development, or the moral vacuity of U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon’s refusal to discourage Syria’s election: “It’s a matter for the states,” he says. American opposition is likely but, on this matter, we have no veto…
The Syrian government is currently massacring their own people – and the UN is going to put that very same government on the human rights panel. This is the same thing as putting the Mafia in charge of fighting organized crime. It just makes no sense – each and every nation which either votes in favor of or abstains from voting on this is morally bankrupt…and I mean right down to the core. You have to be a complete cretin to think that Syria should be on this council…but, there they go.
Get us out of the UN. Get us out today. Have nothing to do with it – anyone who is involved in the UN is morally degraded.
