(Foreign Policy) Daniel Ayalon - The United Nations, which began its life with a plurality of democratic nations, now allows for an automatic majority of nondemocratic nations. The international system dictates that Arab and Islamic nations, and their knee-jerk defenders, have a majority in almost all of its bodies. This is amply demonstrated by the disproportionate amount of time spent condemning Israel. If there were ever an example of the inmates running the asylum, it is the UN Human Rights Council. This body has whitewashed the human rights record of some of the world's most repressive regimes, while also providing them with a forum to condemn the actions of a free and open nation, Israel. The Libyan regime, which is currently massacring its citizens, successfully sought a place on the Human Rights Council only last year with the support of 155 states in a secret ballot. The council recently released a lengthy report partly praising Libya's human rights record, and commending the Libyan regime for "the importance that the country attached to human rights." The writer is Israel's Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs. 2011-03-04 00:00:00Full Article
