#2 "As the global defender of human rights, the U.N. is obligated to step in and protect the helpless innocents in Abu Ghraib."

This is 100% pure USDA inspected top grade export quality banana oil! They allow the appointment of Sudan to the "Human Rights" panel without blinking as mass rapes go on in that country and then threaten to storm in and use force to prevent fairly mild prisoner abuse in Iraq.

"Global defender of human rights" my hairy @ss. How about they "protect the helpless innocents" in Sudan by disallowing that nation's participation on a panel supposedly devoted to preventing that same country's heinous acts against refugees.

I am astonished these people's heads don't explode from confining such completely anthetical thoughts within a single cranial cavity (operative term: cavity, as in "rectal cavity"). How can thinking beings even for one second believe that this sort of posturing carries any weight with those who possess the least shred of sensibility and ethics?
