Such as, the Right to execute political prisoners and blasphemers. Get to that in a minute.
First, how about the head of the U.N. Human Rights council sitting with Sneezy at an Israel bashing conference? (via Little Green Footballs)
UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, Louise Arbour, traveled to Iran this week to take a front row seat and listen attentively to Holocaust-denier Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. The occasion was billed as a human rights meeting of the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM), currently chaired by Cuba.
And the executions?
The day after Arbour left Iran the government felt sufficiently buoyed by their UN stamp of approval, that they executed 21 prisoners. People are executed in Iran for charges like "enmity against God" or "being corrupt on earth."
……..
The Resistance Council warned "The political prisoners and their families fear that if their plight is not addressed by the UN human rights chief on her visit to Tehran, the criminal mullahs will take it as a green light to continue with their barbarism and executions…[They will] take advantage of Arbour’s trip…to increase torture and executions in Iran.." With the mass executions immediately following her departure, their worst fears have been realized.
Huzzah.
