The UN is such a poor joke. My favorite professor was a huge supporter of the UN and was an expert on the topic, but I always felt he overestimated their goodwill and underestimated their interest in the defeat of democracy. I willingly admit that the UN was a great force during the first two or three decades after its inception. I admit they they had great potential for good. I admit that they have lost their way and the forces of darkness have replaced the forces of good.
What good comes out of the UN today? Even things that seem to be well intentioned seem to have a destructive backlash. It is depressing.

there is no 'genuine human rights agenda' at the UN; it has been hijacked not by the NGOs but by the Organisation of the Islamic Conference, the body representing the world's Islamic states.That's why -- surreally -- the Durban II preparatory committee is chaired by a Libyan, Najat al-Hajjaji, with Iran as the vice-chair, Cuba as the rapporteur and other major human-rights offenders such as Russia and Pakistan also among its members. In short, the UN has turned 'human rights' into their antithesis -- and specifically into a weapon to destroy the right to statehood of the Jewish people.
Last month, the UN General Assembly President Miguel d'Escoto Brockmann said Israeli policies amounted to apartheid and 'must be outlawed' and met by a 'campaign of boycott, divestment and sanctions to pressure Israel'.
It is the UN and the architects of Durban II who are the racists and murderous bigots. Negotiating with them at all merely gives them legitimacy. For those committed to genuine human rights, there is only one option. Denounce this sick farce, and pull out now.
