UN to monitor defamation of Islam
Ehtasham Khan in Geneva | April 13, 2005 00:05 IST
The United Nations' Commission on Human Rights on Tuesday adopted a resolution to monitor defamation of religions, particularly Islam.
The votingªon the resolution took place at the ongoing 61st session of the UNCHR in Geneva, Switzerland.
Thirty-oneªcountries voted in favour of the resolution, 16 voted against and five abstained from voting.
United States, United Kingdom and Israel voted in the negative. Russia and China voted in favour of the resolution. India was among those who abstained.
The resolution was pushed forward by Pakistan on behalf of the Organisation of Islamic Conference. It was put under Agenda Item 6 thatªdeals withªracism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and all forms of discrimination.
According to this resolution, the Special Rapporteur of the UN will "examine the situation of Muslims and Arab peoples in various parts of the world, the discrimination faced by them with regard to access to justice, political participation, respect of cultures, physical assaults and attacks against their places of worship, cultural centres, business and properties."
The Special Rapporteur will submit a report on this issue next year and give recommendations to improve the situation.
Though the resolution talks about right of all religions, it has special reference to Islam and Muslims. Therefore, some countries opposed it seeking the deletion of words Islam and Muslims. They called the resolution "biased."
However, OIC nations managed to gain majority support in the voting after month-long diplomatic negotiations with other countries. A similar resolution moved by the OIC was defeated in voting last year.
The OIC pushed this resolution alleging "discrimination against Muslims in the aftermath of the September 11 attack in America."
It said Islam was continuously targeted and defamed by many countries, individuals and the media at several fora, including the United Nations.
The resolution expresses "deep concern" regarding the "intensification of the campaign of defamation of religions, and the ethnic and religious profiling of Muslim minorities, in the aftermath of the tragic events of 11 September 2001."
The resolution urges all states to "take all possible measures to promote tolerance and respect for all religions and their value system…"

=========== Documents linking Atta, Saddam, Nidal, bin Ladin ===========
Handwritten letter dated Feb. 19, 1998 linking bin Laden and Saddam Hussein
discussing arrival of a secret envoy sent by bin Laden to Iraq.
The signature beneath the letter is a codename, "MDA" - the Mukhabarat.
We know the U.N. has no interest in stopping the 'defemation' of Christianity.
... or slavery or terrorism or child rape by UN personel.
Islam: the belief that those who don't hold to a backward and violent and oppresive cult should be subjugated or killed.
You can bet your bottom dollar I hate it.
It's up to Muslims to define Islam. If they make it the above defamation will be the least of their worries while one brave American stands.
BARF!
I think you summed it up nicely.
United States, United Kingdom and Israel voted in the negative.
So, there are only three left. Looks like Islam conquered the rest of the world.
Is the UN also going to monitor the defamation of Hindus, Christians, Jews, Buddhists, and everybody who isn't a Muslim all throughout the Muslim world? Start with Saudi Arabia, Koffee.
I detest, hate, and loathe the horrid UN. Billions are wasted annually by this colossal monument to stupidity, do-nothing bureaucracy, and fecklessness.
In stead of worrying about so-called "defamation," maybe the UN should try to do something about actual terrorism.
Let's hope they carry out the task with same diligence they applied to monitoring Saddam's "oil for food" program.
Yet another persuasive reason to eliminate the U.N. It would be different if muslims were being slaughtered somewhere, by non-muslims, of course.
Well, that's it.
I am now an official "Get the United States Out of the United Nations" convert.
I had hoped that it could be salvaged through reform but it is hopelessly corrupt.
Defund the organization, send the diplomats and their staffs straight to ...err... Geneva; strip the building and implode it; dump the rubble out beyond the continental shelf so it doesn't pollute the territory of the United States any further.
Given his alleged contempt for the organization, John Bolton is the ideal pick for the next UN ambassador. If he can't wreck it, no one can.
Where ever Orwell is he must be laughing his a$$ off.
UN to monitor defamation of Islam
WHAT ABOUT PERSECUTIONS OF CHRISTIANS IN AFRICA!!! This makes me so upset. The ACLU is looking after Islam, the UN should be looking after those that cannot protect themselves. UN OUT OF THE US NOW!!
The UN is going to destroy itself even before Bolton gets hold of it.
