UN taps Islamic Republic of Iran to chair Human Rights Council Social Forum, sparks outrage

The Islamic Republic of Iran is set to chair the United Nations' Council Social Human Rights Forum on Thursday and Friday, in accordance with the organization's regional rotation procedure.

Given the nation's record in regard to human rights, namely the rights of women, the move has garnered criticism from politicians and citizens all over the world.

Islamic regime ambassador Ali Bahreini was appointed in May to lead the forum, which will take place on November 2 and 3 and focus on "the contribution of science, technology and innovation to the promotion of human rights."

The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg.

  • That is the problem with everything. They try and make it better without realizing the old is fine.

Hey why not?  Iran has a great record on human rights.  In fact, they rank near 100% in human rights.
