In dat HP artikel lees ik:
Asma Jahangir, de Pakistaanse VN-rapporteur voor religieuze onverdraagzaamheid en internationaal gelauwerd pleitbezorger voor de mensenrechten, geeft Nederlandse politici het dringende advies doortastend te handelen tegen Geert Wilders. In Wordt Vervolgd, het maandblad van Amnesty International dat morgen verschijnt, roept ze Nederlandse politici op niet stil te zitten: “Doe er wat aan, laat zien dat je ertegen bent opgewassen.”
Ik vroeg mij af "Is karaktermoord niet voldoende?" De volgende stap in dat proces is huurmoord. Bedoelt ze dat met 'doortastend?" Immers, ze komt uit Pakistan en daar hebben ze, zo is gebleken, geen moeite met een politieke moord meer of minder.
Nu verwacht ik niet dat onze politici uit het hout gesneden zijn om politieke moord te bevelen maar ze zouden een begin kunnen maken met het op democratische manier afschaffen van de beveiliging van Geert. Dat is een heel grote stap in de goede richting.

@ Mahalingam

Ik zie de politici van het establishment er inderdaad niet toe in staat een moord te bevelen, maar zij zijn wel in staat een moord opzettelijk niet te voorkomen. Daar hebben Wim Kok, Klaas de Vries en Benk Korthals zich immers in het verleden schuldig aan gemaakt.

To Farouk Hosni's fans, it seems the only conceivable objection to crowning him global protector of culture is his public habit of making anti-Israel slurs, notably last year's offer to burn Hebrew books. "If he had held his tongue, perhaps a red carpet would await Farouk Hosni in France," an article in Le Figaro lamented last week, as the Egyptian Culture Minister landed in Paris ahead of this week's meeting to decide the next chief of the U.N. Education, Scientific and Cultural Organization (more commonly known as Unesco). But there is another reason to pause before appointing Egypt's Culture Minister as Unesco head: namely, the unbroken social, political and cultural repression in Egypt under his tenure.

Egyptian minister blames Jews for UNESCO loss
http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340 ... 77,00.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Egypt's culture minister on Wednesday blamed a conspiracy "cooked up in New York" by the world's Jews for keeping him from becoming the next head of the UN's agency for culture and education.

Farouk Hosny was defeated on Tuesday by Bulgarian diplomat Irina Bokova in a tight race for the position of UNESCO chair.

"It was clear by the end of the competition that there was a conspiracy against me," Hosny told reporters at the airport upon his return from Paris.

"There are a group of the world's Jews who had a major influence in the elections who were a serious threat to Egypt taking this position," he said.

Ik heb het steeds vreemd gevonden hoe iemand die onderdeel uitmaakt van een cultuur wiens doel is: vernietiging van alle andere culturen en alle onderwijs uitgesloten Koranonderwijs, in aanmerking kon komen voor zulk een post.
Na eerdere anti-semitische uitspraken en oproepen voor 'boekverbrandingen' van deze man is het niet verwonderlijk dat de 'Joden' het opnieuw gedaan hebben.
Ben blij dat het gezond verstand uiteindelijk heeft kunnen primerenen ik wens Irina Bokova veel succes Houdt mijn hart vast voor de volgende verkiezingen. Mohammedanen zullen nog vastberadener zijn om er iemand van hun door te drukken.
Waar Mohammedanen het voor het zeggen hebben gaat alle cultuur en opvoeding in verval.

Logisch! Geen mens heeft islam nodig. Islam heeft echter wel onze beschaving nodig. Maar dat zegt men er niet bij. Wie verkondigt nu opgewekt en blijmoedig dat hij zit te wachten op zijn ontmaskering?

Dus moet die ontmaskering van islam zo lang mogelijk tegen gehouden worden. Met intimidatie, list en bedrog. Maar vooral met de terreur van de angst die de moslimmens in zijn greep houdt.

Wel grote bekken hebben over het feit dat Israel de grenzen goed bewaakt, maar zelf niet toelaten dat Joden ( in hun eigen land) op de grond van de al-Aqsa moskee lopen.
Gewonden door rellen bij al-Aqsa moskee
zondag 27 september 2009

JERUZALEM (ANP) - Bij rellen op de Tempelberg in Jeruzalem zijn zondag tientallen gewonden gevallen. Dat hebben ooggetuigen en de Israëlische politie meegedeeld.

Palestijnse jongeren wierpen bij de al-Aqsa moskee stenen naar Israëlische agenten. Die reageerden onder meer met traangas. De onrust zou zijn ontstaan, nadat een groep toeristen het terrein van de moskee was opgegaan.

Aanvankelijk zei de politie dat het om joden ging, maar later werd gezegd dat het Franse toeristen van niet-joodse herkomst betrof. De verwarring is mogelijk ontstaan, doordat een groep orthodoxe en rechtse Joden zich in de vroege ochtend bij de poort had verzameld, waar de politie toeristen toelaat tot de voor Joden en moslims heilige plaats.

De politie meldde dat zeventien agenten gewond zijn geraakt. Ooggetuigen zeiden zeker tien gewonde Palestijnen te hebben gezien. Rond de moskee hing zondagmiddag een gespannen sfeer. Tientallen agenten patrouilleerden door de straten en barricadeerden sommige van de belangrijkste poorten naar de Oude Stad.

De tekst (transcript (engels) ) van de rede van Netanyahu voor de UN.
Spoiler! :
Mr. President, Ladies and Gentlemen,

Nearly 62 years ago, the United Nations recognized the right of the Jews, an ancient people 3,500 years-old, to a state of their own in their ancestral homeland.

I stand here today as the Prime Minister of Israel, the Jewish state, and I speak to you on behalf of my country and my people.

The United Nations was founded after the carnage of World War II and the horrors of the Holocaust. It was charged with preventing the recurrence of such horrendous events.

Nothing has undermined that central mission more than the systematic assault on the truth. Yesterday the President of Iran stood at this very podium, spewing his latest anti-Semitic rants. Just a few days earlier, he again claimed that the Holocaust is a lie.

Last month, I went to a villa in a suburb of Berlin called Wannsee. There, on January 20, 1942, after a hearty meal, senior Nazi officials met and decided how to exterminate the Jewish people. The detailed minutes of that meeting have been preserved by successive German governments. Here is a copy of those minutes, in which the Nazis issued precise instructions on how to carry out the extermination of the Jews. Is this a lie?

A day before I was in Wannsee, I was given in Berlin the original construction plans for the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp. Those plans are signed by Hitler’s deputy, Heinrich Himmler himself. Here is a copy of the plans for Auschwitz-Birkenau, where one million Jews were murdered. Is this too a lie?

This June, President Obama visited the Buchenwald concentration camp. Did President Obama pay tribute to a lie?

And what of the Auschwitz survivors whose arms still bear the tattooed numbers branded on them by the Nazis? Are those tattoos a lie? One-third of all Jews perished in the conflagration. Nearly every Jewish family was affected, including my own. My wife's grandparents, her father’s two sisters and three brothers, and all the aunts, uncles and cousins were all murdered by the Nazis. Is that also a lie?

Yesterday, the man who calls the Holocaust a lie spoke from this podium. To those who refused to come here and to those who left this room in protest, I commend you. You stood up for moral clarity and you brought honor to your countries.

But to those who gave this Holocaust-denier a hearing, I say on behalf of my people, the Jewish people, and decent people everywhere: Have you no shame? Have you no decency?

A mere six decades after the Holocaust, you give legitimacy to a man who denies that the murder of six million Jews took place and pledges to wipe out the Jewish state.

What a disgrace! What a mockery of the charter of the United Nations! Perhaps some of you think that this man and his odious regime threaten only the Jews. You're wrong.

History has shown us time and again that what starts with attacks on the Jews eventually ends up engulfing many others.

This Iranian regime is fueled by an extreme fundamentalism that burst onto the world scene three decades ago after lying dormant for centuries. In the past thirty years, this fanaticism has swept the globe with a murderous violence and cold-blooded impartiality in its choice of victims. It has callously slaughtered Moslems and Christians, Jews and Hindus, and many others. Though it is comprised of different offshoots, the adherents of this unforgiving creed seek to return humanity to medieval times.

Wherever they can, they impose a backward regimented society where women, minorities, gays or anyone not deemed to be a true believer is brutally subjugated. The struggle against this fanaticism does not pit faith against faith nor civilization against civilization.

It pits civilization against barbarism, the 21st century against the 9th century, those who sanctify life against those who glorify death.

The primitivism of the 9th century ought to be no match for the progress of the 21st century. The allure of freedom, the power of technology, the reach of communications should surely win the day. Ultimately, the past cannot triumph over the future. And the future offers all nations magnificent bounties of hope. The pace of progress is growing exponentially.

It took us centuries to get from the printing press to the telephone, decades to get from the telephone to the personal computer, and only a few years to get from the personal computer to the internet.

What seemed impossible a few years ago is already outdated, and we can scarcely fathom the changes that are yet to come. We will crack the genetic code. We will cure the incurable. We will lengthen our lives. We will find a cheap alternative to fossil fuels and clean up the planet.

I am proud that my country Israel is at the forefront of these advances – by leading innovations in science and technology, medicine and biology, agriculture and water, energy and the environment. These innovations the world over offer humanity a sunlit future of unimagined promise.

But if the most primitive fanaticism can acquire the most deadly weapons, the march of history could be reversed for a time. And like the belated victory over the Nazis, the forces of progress and freedom will prevail only after an horrific toll of blood and fortune has been exacted from mankind. That is why the greatest threat facing the world today is the marriage between religious fanaticism and the weapons of mass destruction.

The most urgent challenge facing this body is to prevent the tyrants of Tehran from acquiring nuclear weapons. Are the member states of the United Nations up to that challenge? Will the international community confront a despotism that terrorizes its own people as they bravely stand up for freedom?

Will it take action against the dictators who stole an election in broad daylight and gunned down Iranian protesters who died in the streets choking in their own blood? Will the international community thwart the world's most pernicious sponsors and practitioners of terrorism?

Above all, will the international community stop the terrorist regime of Iran from developing atomic weapons, thereby endangering the peace of the entire world?

The people of Iran are courageously standing up to this regime. People of goodwill around the world stand with them, as do the thousands who have been protesting outside this hall. Will the United Nations stand by their side?

Ladies and Gentlemen,

The jury is still out on the United Nations, and recent signs are not encouraging. Rather than condemning the terrorists and their Iranian patrons, some here have condemned their victims. That is exactly what a recent UN report on Gaza did, falsely equating the terrorists with those they targeted.

For eight long years, Hamas fired from Gaza thousands of missiles, mortars and rockets on nearby Israeli cities. Year after year, as these missiles were deliberately hurled at our civilians, not a single UN resolution was passed condemning those criminal attacks. We heard nothing – absolutely nothing – from the UN Human Rights Council, a misnamed institution if there ever was one.

In 2005, hoping to advance peace, Israel unilaterally withdrew from every inch of Gaza. It dismantled 21 settlements and uprooted over 8,000 Israelis. We didn't get peace. Instead we got an Iranian backed terror base fifty miles from Tel Aviv. Life in Israeli towns and cities next to Gaza became a nightmare. You see, the Hamas rocket attacks not only continued, they increased tenfold. Again, the UN was silent.

Finally, after eight years of this unremitting assault, Israel was finally forced to respond. But how should we have responded? Well, there is only one example in history of thousands of rockets being fired on a country's civilian population. It happened when the Nazis rocketed British cities during World War II. During that war, the allies leveled German cities, causing hundreds of thousands of casualties. Israel chose to respond differently. Faced with an enemy committing a double war crime of firing on civilians while hiding behind civilians – Israel sought to conduct surgical strikes against the rocket launchers.

That was no easy task because the terrorists were firing missiles from homes and schools, using mosques as weapons depots and ferreting explosives in ambulances. Israel, by contrast, tried to minimize casualties by urging Palestinian civilians to vacate the targeted areas.

We dropped countless flyers over their homes, sent thousands of text messages and called thousands of cell phones asking people to leave. Never has a country gone to such extraordinary lengths to remove the enemy's civilian population from harm's way.

Yet faced with such a clear case of aggressor and victim, who did the UN Human Rights Council decide to condemn? Israel. A democracy legitimately defending itself against terror is morally hanged, drawn and quartered, and given an unfair trial to boot.

By these twisted standards, the UN Human Rights Council would have dragged Roosevelt and Churchill to the dock as war criminals. What a perversion of truth. What a perversion of justice.

Delegates of the United Nations,

Will you accept this farce?

Because if you do, the United Nations would revert to its darkest days, when the worst violators of human rights sat in judgment against the law-abiding democracies, when Zionism was equated with racism and when an automatic majority could declare that the earth is flat.

If this body does not reject this report, it would send a message to terrorists everywhere: Terror pays; if you launch your attacks from densely populated areas, you will win immunity. And in condemning Israel, this body would also deal a mortal blow to peace. Here's why.

When Israel left Gaza, many hoped that the missile attacks would stop. Others believed that at the very least, Israel would have international legitimacy to exercise its right of self-defense. What legitimacy? What self-defense?

The same UN that cheered Israel as it left Gaza and promised to back our right of self-defense now accuses us –my people, my country - of war crimes? And for what? For acting responsibly in self-defense. What a travesty!

Israel justly defended itself against terror. This biased and unjust report is a clear-cut test for all governments. Will you stand with Israel or will you stand with the terrorists?

We must know the answer to that question now. Now and not later. Because if Israel is again asked to take more risks for peace, we must know today that you will stand with us tomorrow. Only if we have the confidence that we can defend ourselves can we take further risks for peace.

Ladies and Gentlemen,

All of Israel wants peace.

Any time an Arab leader genuinely wanted peace with us, we made peace. We made peace with Egypt led by Anwar Sadat. We made peace with Jordan led by King Hussein. And if the Palestinians truly want peace, I and my government, and the people of Israel, will make peace. But we want a genuine peace, a defensible peace, a permanent peace. In 1947, this body voted to establish two states for two peoples – a Jewish state and an Arab state. The Jews accepted that resolution. The Arabs rejected it.

We ask the Palestinians to finally do what they have refused to do for 62 years: Say yes to a Jewish state. Just as we are asked to recognize a nation-state for the Palestinian people, the Palestinians must be asked to recognize the nation state of the Jewish people. The Jewish people are not foreign conquerors in the Land of Israel. This is the land of our forefathers.

Inscribed on the walls outside this building is the great Biblical vision of peace: "Nation shall not lift up sword against nation. They shall learn war no more." These words were spoken by the Jewish prophet Isaiah 2,800 years ago as he walked in my country, in my city, in the hills of Judea and in the streets of Jerusalem.

We are not strangers to this land. It is our homeland. As deeply connected as we are to this land, we recognize that the Palestinians also live there and want a home of their own. We want to live side by side with them, two free peoples living in peace, prosperity and dignity.

But we must have security. The Palestinians should have all the powers to govern themselves except those handful of powers that could endanger Israel.

That is why a Palestinian state must be effectively demilitarized. We don't want another Gaza, another Iranian backed terror base abutting Jerusalem and perched on the hills a few kilometers from Tel Aviv.

We want peace.

I believe such a peace can be achieved. But only if we roll back the forces of terror, led by Iran, that seek to destroy peace, eliminate Israel and overthrow the world order. The question facing the international community is whether it is prepared to confront those forces or accommodate them.

Over seventy years ago, Winston Churchill lamented what he called the "confirmed unteachability of mankind," the unfortunate habit of civilized societies to sleep until danger nearly overtakes them.

Churchill bemoaned what he called the "want of foresight, the unwillingness to act when action will be simple and effective, the lack of clear thinking, the confusion of counsel until emergency comes, until self-preservation strikes its jarring gong.”

I speak here today in the hope that Churchill's assessment of the "unteachibility of mankind" is for once proven wrong.

I speak here today in the hope that we can learn from history -- that we can prevent danger in time.

In the spirit of the timeless words spoken to Joshua over 3,000 years ago, let us be strong and of good courage. Let us confront this peril, secure our future and, God willing, forge an enduring peace for generations to come.

UN Human Rights Council Passes Obama's Resolution Condemning Blasphemy of Islam....
http://www.weaselzippers.net/blog/2009/ ... islam.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
The U.N. Human Rights Council approved a U.S.-backed resolution Friday deploring attacks on religions while insisting that freedom of expression remains a basic right.

The inaugural resolution sponsored by the U.S. since it joined the council in June broke a long-running deadlock between Western and Islamic countries in the wake of the publication of cartoons depicting the Muslim Prophet Muhammad.

The resolution has no effect in law but provides Muslim countries with moral ammunition the next time they feel central tenets of Islam are being ridiculed by Western politicians or media through "negative racial and religious stereotyping."

American diplomats say the measure — co-sponsored by Egypt — is part of the Obama administration's effort to reach out to Muslim countries.

U.S. co-sponsors anti-free speech resolution at the UN
http://www.jihadwatch.org/2009/10/us-co ... he-un.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Free speech death watch. The U.N. Human Rights Council approved the resolution, cosponsored by the U.S. and Egypt, yesterday.

It calls on states to condemn and criminalize "any advocacy of national, racial or religious hatred that constitutes incitement to discrimination, hostility or violence." It also condemns "negative stereotyping of religions and racial groups," which is of course an oblique reference to accurate reporting about the jihad doctrine and Islamic supremacism -- which is always the focus of whining by the Organization of the Islamic Conference and other groups about negative "stereotyping" of Islam. They never say anything when people like Osama bin Laden and Khaled Sheikh Mohammed issue detailed Koranic expositions justifying violence and hatred; but when people like Geert Wilders and others report about such expositions, that's "negative stereotyping."

And the worst aspect of this and all such measures is that the "Incitement" and the "hatred" are in the eye of the beholder. The powerful can decide to silence the powerless by classifying their views as hate speech.

You Can't Say That
http://weeklystandard.com/Content/Publi ... 3ytrhc.asp" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
The Obama administration has marked its first foray into the UN human rights establishment by backing calls for limits on freedom of expression. The newly-minted American policy was rolled out at the latest session of the UN Human Rights Council, which ended in Geneva on Friday. American diplomats were there for the first time as full Council members and intent on making friends.

President Obama chose to join the Council despite the fact that the Organization of the Islamic Conference holds the balance of power and human rights abusers are among its lead actors, including China, Cuba, and Saudi Arabia. Islamic states quickly interpreted the president's penchant for "engagement" as meaning fundamental rights were now up for grabs. Few would have predicted, however, that the shift would begin with America's most treasured freedom.
The new resolution, championed by the Obama administration, has a number of disturbing elements. It emphasizes that "the exercise of the right to freedom of expression carries with it special duties and responsibilities . . ." which include taking action against anything meeting the description of "negative racial and religious stereotyping." It also purports to "recognize . . . the moral and social responsibilities of the media" and supports "the media's elaboration of voluntary codes of professional ethical conduct" in relation to "combating racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance."

Pakistan's Ambassador Zamir Akram, speaking on behalf of the Organization of the Islamic Conference, made it clear that they understand the resolution and its protection against religious stereotyping as allowing free speech to be trumped by anything that defames or negatively stereotypes religion. The idea of protecting the human rights "of religions" instead of individuals is a favorite of those countries that do not protect free speech and which use religion--as defined by government--to curtail it.

Just say no to blasphemy laws
http://blogs.usatoday.com/oped/2009/10/ ... laws-.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Around the world, free speech is being sacrificed on the altar of religion. Whether defined as hate speech, discrimination or simple blasphemy, governments are declaring unlimited free speech as the enemy of freedom of religion. This growing movement has reached the United Nations, where religiously conservative countries received a boost in their campaign to pass an international blasphemy law. It came from the most unlikely of places: the United States.

While attracting surprisingly little attention, the Obama administration supported the effort of largely Muslim nations in the U.N. Human Rights Council to recognize exceptions to free speech for any "negative racial and religious stereotyping." The exception was made as part of a resolution supporting free speech that passed this month, but it is the exception, not the rule that worries civil libertarians. Though the resolution was passed unanimously, European and developing countries made it clear that they remain at odds on the issue of protecting religions from criticism. It is viewed as a transparent bid to appeal to the "Muslim street" and our Arab allies, with the administration seeking greater coexistence through the curtailment of objectionable speech. Though it has no direct enforcement (and is weaker than earlier versions), it is still viewed as a victory for those who sought to juxtapose and balance the rights of speech and religion.

@ hans van de mortel

Jij onderschat het aantal hoogopgeleide godsdienstwaanzinnigen. Op mijn universiteit lopen bijvoorbeeld veel moslima's met een hoofddoek rond (en daarnaast moslima's zonder hoofddoek).

Bovendien hoeft men niet hoogopgeleid te zijn om Engels te kunnen lezen. Van mensen met een HBO- of MBO-opleiding verwacht ik bijvoorbeeld dat zij Engels kunnen lezen.

Zojuist geplaatst in het topic over Barack Obama, maar aangezien deze video tevens over de VN gaat, bij deze nogmaals hier:

@ Mahalingham,
De moord op wijlen Pim Fortuyn wordt opnieuw onderzocht, zo meldde media eerder vorige week. Saillant detail is natuurlijk, dat het voorkomen daarvan vrijwel afwezig was. Teveel belangen waren in het geding, waar onder die van 'de politiek correct denkende elite' wat weer heel wat anders is dan de atheïstische elite.
Het blijft verdacht, dat er zo'n lacune is in Politie dossiers rondom 'dierenactivisten' en mensenhandelaren. Ook het ontbreken van een online Justitie registratie 'wie waar in een NL gevangenis zit', laat zien dat de onderlinge betrokkenen elkaar nog niet vertrouwen. Angst voor directe aansprakelijkheid & verantwoordelijkheid bij niet terug komen van een gedetineerde na een verlof speelt natuurlijk ook een rol. Nu is er weer zo'n Bulgaar op de loop! (Het scheelt wel de uitzetting procedure - de PVV zal dit als winst inboeken lijkt mij).

Klaarblijkelijk is men in Den Haag op de hoogte van de activiteiten van de Mensenrechtencommissie van de Verenigde Naties. Ons land zal ook wel weer aan de beurt komen, nu zelfs Rusland in de beklaagdenbank staat.
Volgens het ND van 2009-10-31, blz. 5 (redactie buitenland) :

"Dat land doet volgens de commissie te weinig om journalisten, activisten, gedetineerden en anderen te beschermen tegen moord, marteling en ander misbruik".

Iran gekozen in vrouwenrechten-commissie VN
2 mei 2010
Afgelopen woensdag werd Iran bij acclamatie gekozen in de vrouwenrechten-commissie van de Verenigde Naties. Deze commissie heet in het Engels de Commission on the Status of Women (CSW) en is een onderdeel van de Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC). In een persbericht van de laatstgenoemde organisatie kan men de verkiezing zelf lezen (in de zesde alinea onder het kopje Other Elections, Appointments and Nominations). Daar kan men tevens lezen dat Nederland tot dezelfde VN-commissie ter bevordering van vrouwenrechten is gekozen. Reden te meer voor de Nederlandse media om de wel zeer opmerkelijke verkiezing van Iran tot die commissie te melden en aan de kaak te stellen. Althans, dat zou men denken. Maar nee hoor, alleen weblogs als Contradicere en Artikel 7 melden het nieuws en stellen deze misstand aan de kaak.

Libië en andere mensenrechtenschenders gekozen in VN-Mensenrechtenraad
14 mei 2010
Gisteren zijn door de Algemene Vergadering van de Verenigde Naties 14 nieuwe leden van de VN-Mensenrechtenraad gekozen. Onder de nieuwe leden bevinden zich notoire mensenrechtenschenders als Libië, Angola, Maleisië en Mauritanië (in het laatstgenoemde land leven bijvoorbeeld meer dan een half miljoen mensen in slavernij).

De VN-Mensenrechtenraad had bij vrijheidslievende mensen al geen goede naam, door haar strijd tegen "godslastering" en haar obsessie met Israël. Desondanks vonden 155 van de 192 leden van de Algemene Vergadering het een goed idee om Libië tot de VN-Mensenrechtenraad te verkiezen. Andere mensenrechtenschenders kregen zelfs nog meer steun.
