I Would Suggest It Be Putoff...

...this is how the leftists would have you believe the situation is in the middle east!


...until after the US Presidential election because based on past performance there is no way Obama would provide military assistance to our only friend in the Middle East.

UN looks to Iran for advice on women's rights
Posted: May 03, 2010, 12:15 PM by NP Editor
The UN seems determined to never let a chance go by to make itself look ridiculous. The latest example is the election last week of Iran as a member of the Commission on the Status of Women, part of the UN’s economic and social council. Women are so overwhelmingly discriminated against in Iran that they'd have to make considerable progress just to claim  second-rate status. As the International Campaign for Human Rights in Iran pointed out, “women lack the ability to choose their husbands, have no independent right to education after marriage, no right to divorce, no right to child custody, have no protection from violent treatment in public spaces, are restricted by quotas for women’s admission at universities, and are arrested, beaten, and imprisoned for peacefully seeking change of such laws.”
 
 
Stone women to death, get appointed to UN women's rights body
Posted: May 03, 2010, 1:14 PM by Araminta Wordsworth Filed under: Araminta Wordsworth,FC Abroad,Iran,UN,women's rights
Full Comment’s Araminta Wordsworth brings you a regular dose of international punditry at its finest. At first glance, the headline looks like a joke — “Iran wins a seat on UN Commission on the Status of Women.” But this is no laughing matter. The country that sees women as second-class citizens and stones adulteresses to death has won a place by default on the world body’s commission charged with improving the lot of women around the world. Worse still, it acquired — I refuse to use the word “won” — the place by default, thanks to the UN’s bloc voting procedure. It’s the second time the mullahs have used manipulation of the rules to land a place on the commission. As a U.S. official told Fox News, “there is no opportunity [to object]. That is not how the procedure works.”

A Reminder To The Center For Iranian Studies...

...that during the tenure of Jack Layton on Toronto City Council that Toronto declared itself a "nuclear freezone" and this information should be shared with the Iranian President.
 
Terry Glavin: Tehran's Operation In Toronto And Its "Anti-War" Friends.
Posted: April 19, 2010, 2:00 PM by NP Editor Filed under: Iran,Terry Glavin
Michael Petrou reports on an organization in Toronto that describes itself as a non-partisan centre for Iranian culture and scholarship, but is in fact funded by the Iranian embassy in Ottawa. Founded by a well-connected Iranian diplomat, The Center for Iranian Studies, located at 290 Sheppard Ave. W., was incorporated in January 2008. One of its three directors at the time was Fazel Larijani, who was then Iran's cultural attaché in Ottawa. He is the brother of Ali Larijani, speaker of the Iranian parliament, and Ayatollah Sadeq Larijani, head of the judiciary. It is now time to begin to name names, dates, and places, writes Samira Mohyeddin, whose torments readers will remember from this column. "These students, a lot of them bursary students, were in many of my classes and were adamant supporters of the Islamic Republic. It was often noted by other students that these students from Iran would spy on those of us who would vocalise our opposition to the Iranian regime. I myself have been threatened on numerous occasions, particularly while writing for the University of Toronto newspaper, The Varsity."

Iran And US Presidents

Carter....hostages.

Obama....

Iran convicts US journalist of spying...

8 Years in prison...

...'tricked' into confessing

...and closer to home:

God DAMN America, Redux.
Still voting present; President Obama endured a 50-minute diatribe from socialist Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega that lashed out at a century of what he called terroristic U.S. aggression in Central America and included a rambling denunciation of the U.S.-imposed isolation...

Canada's Position On Iran???? Flaggman Asks

Louise Arbour Head Screwed On Wrong

Former Justice of the Supreme Court of Canada, and current United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, Louise Arbour, is disappointed with her home country. From Reuters, October 22, 2007, “Canada’s commitment slipping, U.N. rights boss says.”:

OTTAWA (Reuters) - Canada’s commitment to human rights is slipping and the country must work hard to regain the position it once held as an international honest broker, a top United Nations official said on Monday.

U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights Louise Arbour, who is Canadian, said she was particularly unhappy that Canada had voted against a nonbinding U.N. declaration of rights for indigenous peoples last month.

Her comments were aimed at the Conservative government, which took power in February 2006 and has shown less interest in multilateral diplomacy than its Liberal predecessor.

Arbour said Canada had historically been perceived as an unbiased nation whose judgment was widely sought and which did not serve narrow interests.

“I am very worried that this very romantic view that we have of ourselves is not being sufficiently nourished and preserved to allow us to continue to occupy a place much larger than the one that our single voice among 192 member states of the United Nations would otherwise allow for,” she said.

“I hope that we … will collectively work very hard to reclaim that privileged space,” she told an Ottawa conference on human rights.

Oh…THIS Louise Arbour?

Let’s see…condemnation of Canada, silence on Iran. This Iran:

Let me spend a few moments highlighting some of the most recent atrocities. In a recent period of less than 30 days, some 31 executions were carried out and 8 women were awaiting execution by stoning. And in Gohardasht prison alone, some 612 individuals were in death row.

Now you might think that litany of horrors couldn’t be surpassed but you would be wrong. Iran remains the only country in the world that continues to execute children and International human rights organizations have indicated a short time ago that 71 minors were incarcerated under the sentence of death.

Could this woman sink any lower?

Iran detains scores at "satanic" rock gig: media

Sat Aug 4, 2007 12:58PM EDT

TEHRAN (Reuters) - Iranian police detained more than 200 people and seized alcohol and drugs in a raid on a "satanic" underground rock concert, media in the conservative Islamic state reported on Saturday.

Iran, which has launched an annual summer crackdown on "immoral behavior", bans alcohol, narcotics and parties with unrelated men and women dancing, drinking and mixing. Western popular music is frowned upon.

The police operation took place on Wednesday night in the town of Karaj near the capital Tehran, at an event with local disc jockeys, rock and rap groups performing, the media said.
