How the UN Oppresses the Islamic World
Pajamas Media ^ | 08/13/2014 | Roger Simon

People reading the title of this article should be excused for doing a double-take. To most of us the United Nations has been — especially in the last few decades — a debating society dedicated to the promulgation of anti-Semitism. It seems all the organization does is pass resolutions condemning Israel, that is when they’re not launching investigations of the same country via their Human Rights Council, a latter-day branch of the Wehrmacht, led by posturing Third World bigots, that usually meets at beachfront resorts.

Even UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon has been a tiny bit perturbed of late by the orgy of Jew-hatred emanating from the organization he heads. Forget Boko Haram and ISIS, forget 170,000 dead in Syria — it’s the Jews that are the problem.

But this has all been going on for so long and with such idiotic single-mindedness that it has become a joke. Hardly anyone with half a brain would take it seriously — except perhaps a member of the Brandeis faculty, and they absolutely do have half a brain.

And Israel, if you haven’t noticed, is doing pretty well as one of the world leaders in everything from microchips to medical research, possibly the world leader for their size. Most recently, they’ve come up with a way to diagnose cervical cancer with a smartphone. An Israeli tech company, Mobileye (a purveyor to Tesla), was able to break a record for one of their nation’s companies with an 890 million dollar IPO last week right in the midst of the Gaza conflagration and a global stock meltdown.

As you may also have noticed, the Islamic world hasn’t been having a lot of tech IPOs lately. They’ve been too busy killing each other — and everybody else — for a long time.

The UN is a collection of marshmallow-major non-achievers who are too inept to even be politicians.

May the flies of a thousand camels come to rest on their marajuana pots and may they all leave.

NOW!

Decent article... describes the UN as the enablers for Hamas.

Well, I DID also notice it was written by Roger Simon, who is one of the most vile pieces of human garbage I have ever met.

I suppose that also affected my decision to stop reading.

The title is sarcasm. But you knew that.

The author’s premise is that the UN “oppresses” the Islamic world by letting it run amok in 7th-century fashion.
