In light of the fantastic success of the Unites States military, the United Nations took this action in anticipation of the liberation of the women (and men and children and other people) of the Islamic Republic of Iran from their present governance. Oops. I forgot—it’s the United Nations, the dictators’ club, the tyrants’ society, the organization for global totalitarians to realize their schemes for global domination.
“The acid on the girls in Afghanistan,the forced circumcision of woman etc.”
You’re right, of course. Socialists run the UN, and are now in charge of our own government’s foreign and domestic policies. The authoritarian governments who populate the UN, by their very nature, must assume that all cultural practices are morally equivalent. This is because for a dictator to acknowledge that a certain practice is immoral in some fundamental sense would be to limit the power of his own government. So, forced circumcision for women may not be Che Guevara’s style, or Obama’s or Mao’s style, but nothing can taken off the table due to some sense of man’s natural rights.
For example, how can our own leaders make a fundamental moral judgment like condemning the practice of forced circumcision on women on the one hand, and on the other presume to decide who can permission to get get a life saving medical procedure and who may not (even if he wants to purchase it?)
As for women’s groups, what can one expect from them. They like arbitrary government power too. It’s the only way they can acheive their agenda. When Juanita Broaddrick went public with having been raped by Bill Clinton, womens organizations mocked and vilified her. It’s not that NOW was pro-rape, understand, it’s that Clinton wanted to deliver on partial birth abortion, and along comes this “nobody” who damages him politically.
