The UN High Commissioner for Human Rights has condemned the policies of US Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump, equating them to bigotry.

Zeid Raad al-Hussein did not mention Mr Trump by name, but he singled out the businessman's support of torture and his policies towards Muslims.

"Bigotry is not proof of strong leadership," Mr Hussein said.

Think how many more votes Trump would get if he were to declare that he would get the US out of the UN and move that cess pool out of the US.

Trump probably realizes that the UN Building is a waste of prime Manhattan real estate.

Move their headquarters to Zimbabwe. Then withdraw.

This is the same creep that helped establish the International Criminal Court, “Prince” Zeid. He’s also tried on several occasions to push an international blasphemy law of sorts via the UN. The man is bad news.

The UN is one of the biggest mistakes of history, having its charter based on the USSR’s 1936 constitution due to Alger Hiss. Nothing short of the destruction of that abomination would suffice.

The communists would kinda like that. Then they could try to set it up as a one-world government like they always wanted to do.

The UN High Commissioner for Human Rights has condemned the policies of US Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump, equating them to bigotry.

The only noteworthy information I this thread is...

How the hell did a member of the Muslim Mass Murdering culture end up being UN High Commissioner for "human rights?"

Is this a joke?

The criminal muslim culture arbitrarily kills dozens or hundreds every day without a clue of what "Human Rights" means.

Other than for throwing hundreds of millions$ down a rat hole why are we still in The United Nations?

Anything in the UN having to do with “human rights” has anti-Israel jihadi and/or leftists in control of it. The predecessor Human Rights Commission was the same way.

I think Trump Tower would look good on the former location of the UN.

OOOh OOOh OOOh, (yeah it looks hex, but what the hell.) I got excited.

Reality show idea. I know you Cruzers thing Donald is all about reality shows.

Wouldn’t you all love to see the UN diplomats waterboarded 5 6 and 7 pm.

I would. Would make my food go down very well.

Damnit, cant use the /sarc tag. I actually like the idea.

“Bigotry is not proof of strong leadership,” Mr Hussein said”

Im surprised Hussein found time in the day between beating his wife, or honor killing his Daughter to make any statement.

If Zeid Raad al-Hussein if against Trump, then he must be doing something right...no idea who this guy is, but I’ve seen enough Husseins in my life time to know he’s bad news...just like Sadam, Barack, etc...

He’s a member of the Hashemite (Jordanian) royal family and a chief architect of the International Criminal Court. Tried pushing a worldwide anti-blasphemy law via the UN a couple of times.

Trump sure has all the right enemies.

I’d love to see him kick the U.N. out of the U.S. and redevelop that building in New York. Would be the sweetest irony, wouldn’t it?

Time to gut the vehicle that is feeding the NWO and expanding its totalitarian powers - the UN.
