What do we expect from the United Nitwaits. The same organization that gushed over Saudi Arabia and China's environmental improvements, but heaped scorn on Australia and Canada. Worse than that is our man-child PM has a crush on that deeply flawed organization.

Was it Sudan where in many regions imams promote female genital mutilation to prevent women from deriving pleasure during intercourse? In northern Sudan, it is estimated that nearly 90% of married women have suffered such treatment.
Nope. The CSW did not see fit to condemn Sudan. Indeed, last year the permanent representative from Sudan was made one of the vice-chairs of the CSW.
Was it Saudi Arabia, where women still may not drive, vote or own property, and may be publicly caned if seen outside their homes with a man who is not a relative?
Good guess, but no.
The United Arab Emirates? The UAE was praised for some marginal improvements for women such as a slight uptick in the percentage of women in the workforce. But what the UN's CSW overlooked, of course, was a report from Human Rights Watch that UAE law still makes women the virtual chattel of their "male guardian."
Human Rights Watch reports that last year a UAE man was acquitted for nearly beating his wife to death. She had taken a job without his permission, so a court ruled his assault was justified.
The UAE rep was elevated to a CSW vice-chair this year.
Was the offender singled out by the UN China for its forced abortions and sterilization, Syria, Libya, Yemen, Somalia or any one of two dozen other countries where rights organizations conclude that the women are at "high risk?"
Nope.
According to the UN, the only country worthy of condemnation is Israel, where women have the same economic, legal and political rights as men, but where the army sometimes during military actions against terrorists who are hiding amongst civilians has killed Palestinian women and girls by accident.
It's the same with the UN Human Rights Council. The body regularly condemns Israel – the only true democracy in the Middle East – while promoting the representatives of brutal dictatorships to leadership and oversight positions.
The UN is irredeemably biased, useless and corrupt. But according to Prime Minister Selfie, Canada should not only be more engaged, we should trust the UN to screen our refugees from Syria.

The UN is the enabler of the Islamic world.

Israel could learn a lot about equality for women from Saudi Arabia and Sudan. :laugh3:

Any party that makes withdrawing from the United Nitwits part of it's platform gets my vote.

Speaking on that item before the vote, the representative of Israel called the text an attack on his country and said it failed to hold the Palestinian leadership accountable, did nothing to help Palestinian women and only advanced the agenda of those who sought to use the Commission as a political platform. Year after year, the Commission singled out one country only, with not a word to say about countries where women were treated like second-class citizens, unable to drive or leave the house without their husband's permission. He asked delegates to vote against the text and to commit themselves to ending an annual charade that endangered the Commission's credibility by indulging the whim of one party.

Israel singled out at UN for women's right violations
Quote
Israel's UN Ambassador Ron Prosor denounced the resolution saying it was further proof of the UN's bias against Israel, as it was the only country singled out by the 45-member commission.
"If anyone has ever doubted that the UN is biased against Israel, today we got further proof. Of the 193 member states in this institution, dozens slaughter innocent civilians and impose discriminatory laws that marginalize women and yet they all get a free pass. The Commission on the Status of Women itself includes some of the worst violators of human rights, as Iran and Sudan," he said.
"Honor killings in the Palestinian Authority are a matter of daily occurrence, and employment of women stands at only 17%. It is time for the Palestinians to finally take responsibility for something. Their mistreatment of women is a chance to start taking responsibility. It's not enough for the Palestinians to cynically exploit this institution; they've now made it their mission to turn the Commission on the Status of Women into a politically charged forum," he went on.
The resolution, sponsored by the Palestinians and South Africa, was adopted by a vote of 27-2 with 13 abstentions. The United States and Israel voted against it and European Union members abstained.

"Situation of and assistance to Palestinian women"? Doesn't sound like much of a condemnation to me. There's still nothing about what Israel is allegedly being condemned over. Condemned for what exactly?
And you can see by my link for the UN press release that many countries and issues were discussed. Why is the Calgary Sun saying that only Israel is being singled out when that's not the case?
Grave situation of Palestinian does not sound like a condemnation to you? You are so frickin dishonest.
Geez. Condemnation for

I lived in the Middle East. "Situation of and assistance to Palestinian women" (document E/CN.6/2016/L.3), but no similar vote on Saudi Arabia. The UN is nearly as dishonest as you are.
So you have no idea what Israel's allegedly being condemned for. Another informative Sun News article!

The man chosen as the Israeli military's new chief rabbi has previously implied that soldiers would be permitted to rape women in war.
This comes at a time when the Israeli government lurches further and further to the right, with what has been called "its most hard-right government ever."
Rabbi Col. Eyal Karim was nominated for the top religious position in the Israel Defense Forces, of IDF, by the chief of staff on Monday.
Karim was at the center of a media controversy in Israel in 2012, when it was revealed that, in 2003, he suggested on a religious website that soldiers were permitted to commit acts of rape during wartime.
"One of the important and crucial values in war is maintaining the fighting preparedness of the army ... and the needs and emotions of the individual are pushed aside for the success of the nation at war," he wrote in his response to a question about soldiers raping civilians in war.
"Just as in war, the fence of risk-taking is breached on behalf of others, so are the fences of modesty and kashrut breached... Although fraternizing with a non-Jewess is a very bad thing, it is allowable in war out of consideration for the difficulties of the fighters," Karim continued, according to a translation in the Israeli media.
"Because the success of the collective is what mostly concerns us in war, the Torah allows the individual to satisfy his lust in the permitted conditions for the sake of the general success," he concluded.

I actually noticed nothing was said about why as well.
But Why is the Sun not reporting the facts? Because it's part of the bullshit media we settle for in this country.

The why is obvious. The united Nitwits have their noses up Islam's ass. That's fine except that our man-child pm wants us involved even further with them. Canadians have lots of money right. We can give a little more to support corrupt sheikhs. What do you expect from an org that heaps praise on Saudi's environmental record and scorn on Canada and Aus. Fuck the UN.
Bullshit media is anything Romero quotes. He's a flaming homo. :roll:
No condemnation of Saudi Arabia or even Qater which is not nearly as moderate as people think.
