Iran loses bid For U.N. womens Council Seat. Saudi Arabia And Democratic Republic Of Congo Get Voted In, Despite Rampant Human Rights Violations.
Well, it appears that the United States got it half right. The US and her allies lobbied against, and won a bid to deny Iran a seat on the U.N. new women's agency. This new agency is dedicated to women's rights throughout the world. This human rights agency did, however manage to elect Saudi Arabia and Democratic Republic of the Congo to seas on the council. Both of those nations have their fair share of human rights violations themselves. In Saudi Arabia, women are not allowed to drive, and can not go to a gym and get exercise. Th…
Free Tibet:Boycott China
China has warned the United States that ties between the two countries will be strained if the US President meets the Dalai Lama . This follows the little progress achieved at "sharply divided" talks between China and the representatives of the Dalai Lama in China. Chinese Communist Party official Zhu Weiqun , speaking at a press conference to discuss the five-day visit by the representatives, said that "corresponding action" would be taken if the White House did not step down. He elaborated, stating that "it will…
ASSHAT of the week #4:Pat Roberstson
The poll numbers are in and this weeks ASSHAT award goes to TV preacher Pat Robertson . I criticized Robertson earlier this week for his ridiculous and insensitive remarks toward the people of Haiti. This type of behavior is quite common for Robertson as I will attempt to demonstrate in this article.
Saudi women banned from exercise.
If the story I posted earlier about the 13 year old girl who is serving a two month sentence and receiving 90 lashes for bringing a cellphone to school wasn't enough to make you mad, this should help. Apparently in Saudi Arabia women aren't allowed to exercise! That's right sweating to whatever the hell the Muslim equivalent of Richard Simmons is illegal.
Saudi Arabian girl, 13 sentenced to 90 lashes and jail for bringing a cellphone to school.
Welcome to Saudi Arabia . The land of sand and sun. Oil and Wealth. Fun and....floggings? Yes, and it's not just for adults. Oh no, in Saudi Arabia they beat everyone equally. According to the daily mail in the UK a 13 year old Saudi girl was sentenced to 90 lashes after she took a cellphone to school. The unnamed girl apparently assaulted the schools headmistress after the cellphone, which has been banned at girls schools was discovered. This is not something new. Saudi Arabia is constantly criticized for it's human rights violati…
The effects of Liberalism on the American justice system.
In America we try our very best to execute those guilty of crimes against their fellow man (e.g. Murder )In places like the Middle East people are executed for simply being different. If you are gay, you are hung. If you are a woman who has been raped, it is your fault and you will be stoned to death. If you are a woman who dares to socialize with another man who is not related to you. You will be stoned to death. In China people are imprisoned, tortured, and murdered for the most trivial of crimes, as the Chinese will do whatever it takes to…
British national Akmal Shaikh executed in China
British national Akmal Shaikh executed in China - Wikinews, the free news source The Chinese continue to terrorize the people of Tibet , they execute foreign nationals without regard, they commit atrocious human rights violations and still President Barack Obama refuses to say a word. China holds over 50% of the United States national debt so diplomacy should be enacted when talking to them, but only somewhat. In the end, we could refuse to pay them. Cut all ties and enact sanctions and embargoes against them. We could even promote unrest…
Vegans say the darndest things.
I'm really bored today so I am going to take a random article I found by a Vegan, and dissect it and subsequently make fun of them because it is fun. I will put my comments in italics and parenthesis so you know. Stupid Things Ominvores Say: Worry About Human Rights, Not Animal Rights By Eccentric Vegan on July 20th, 2008 A nonvegan woman recently told me I shouldn’t worry about animals (and thus shouldn’t be vegan) ( How does not worrying about animals affect your ability to be vegan exactly?) when there are human rights violation…
