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 unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Does this mean chicks in Iran can wear poodle skirts and bobbie sox now?

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