The United Nations initially was sold to the American people on the idea that nations of Goodwill could band together and positively influence the cultures of the whole world towards betterment. Toward the best of humanity.
Since then however, it has been beset and overrun by the misguided notion that all cultures are equal… And so as a result of that nonsense, observe your new United Nations Human Rights Commission:
China
Cuba
Iraq
Qatar
Saudi Arabia
Venezuela
Burundi
Bangladesh
United Arab Emirates
It reads like a murderer’s row of human rights abusers, doesn’t it? Worse, there are some of those in the United States who would have us judged by these abusers.
I have some problems with Donald Trump, but the removal of the United States from the UN Human Rights Council is not one of them.
I’ve been saying for a long time now, unapologetically, (and somewhat tongue in cheek) that the interests of World Peace would in fact be well served by dropping a nuke on Turtle Bay. This is a I rather glaring example of why I think that’s the case.
At a minimum the United States should remove itself from the United Nations altogether, remove the United Nations from these United States as well, and stop paying into this farcical organization.
