UN ELECTS IRAN TO THEIR ARMS TRADE POST

UN Watch reports that the UN has picked one of the most dangerous totalitarians for an unsuitable spot (Hat tip: The Weekly Standard):
“Right after a UN Security Council report found Iran guilty of illegally transferring guns and bombs to Syria, which is now murdering thousands of its own people, it defies logic, morality and common sense for the UN to now elect this same regime to a global post regulating the transfer of guns and bombs,” said Hillel Neuer, executive director of UN Watch, a non-governmental monitoring group based in Geneva.


“This is like choosing Bernie Madoff to police fraud on the stock market. And the U.N.’s scandalous choice of Iran is exactly why we fear that Syria’s declared bid for a U.N. Human Rights Council seat is not impossible.”
What this tells is that the UN is becoming extremely dangerous themselves, and another reason why membership with them is ultimately pointless.
