UN Passes Resolution Protecting Islam from Criticism
Holy Smoke!
It didn’t attract much notice, but the General Assembly of the United Nations ended the year by passing a disgusting resolution protecting Islam from criticism of its human rights violations.
Lots of non-Muslims voted for it – a sign that more and more corrupt Third World governments are identifying with the ideology of Islam, even if they don’t accept its doctrines.
The resolution goes under the innocuous title “Combating defamation of religions” – but the text singles out “Islam and Muslims in particular”. It expresses “deep concern that Islam is frequently and wrongly associated with human rights violations and terrorism”.
Wrongly associated? As of today, terrorists have carried out 10,277 separate attacks since September 11, 2001. They all belong to the same religion, and it ain’t Methodism.
The resolution (which of course makes no mention of the vicious persecution of Christians) was pushed through by the 57-nation Organisation of the Islamic Conference (OIC), which has been agitating for it for years. Naturally every Muslim country was among the 108 supporters, but it’s interesting to note how other countries lined up.
Cuba, China, North Korea and Zimbabwe all voted the same way. I’ll give you one guess.
I suppose that means we shouldn’t post the Muhammad cartoons anymore. At least according to the United Nations. Let’s see. I want to make sure I understand this. You can make fun of any religion to your hearts content. Christians and Jews are fair game. Just don’t dare look at Islam the wrong way. Okay, that makes sense, if you are afraid. The only reason the UN would pander to one religion is that they are afraid not to.
The UN has become nothing but a joke.

That is disgusting indeed. I wonder what the ACLU and all the liberals will have to say about this; you know because they are always dogging Christians and telling us to shut up.
I vote we make our own UN for the blogging world.

“…has become…”? It’s really hard to pay attention to it anymore. You would have thought after the decades that it’s been here, some efficiency and value would have come out of it, but instead it’s become worse than the US Congress. I used to accept its mission as a peacekeeping tool, but not any longer. And actions like this just turn it backward.

Sorta Blogless Sunday Pinup…
Happy Sunday! It is another fantastic day in America. The Sun is shiny, the geese are honking, the ducks are quacking - you should hear the cacaphony in the pond area behind my home. This pinup is by Bill Randall, with a wee bit of help from the Stars…
