A Congressional Task Force for International Religious Freedom (TIRF) will hold an off-the-record briefing to discuss the "defamation of religions" resolutions at the United Nations' Human Rights Council and their impact on the freedoms of religion and expression. While Pakistan (on behalf of the Organization of Islamic Conference) has sponsored these resolutions at the UN to counter "Islamophobia" since 1999, the effect has been a dangerous increase in restrictions on the freedom of religion and expression throughout the world that go beyond traditionally accepted international standards. The briefing is open to the public and will discuss the implications of these resolutions and how concerns of "Islamophobia" can be addressed while maintaining fundamental international standards.
The rest.

More evidence of this HRC tyranny leaving foot prints that lead right to Turtle Bay.
Again: the UN's "human rights" are INFERIOR to the civil rights and individual civil liberty in constituted rule of common law liberal democracies.
Seriously, why would we take any advice on "rights" issues from civilly devolved unstable totalitarian crap holes like Pakistan et al? They only know the "rights" of power and rule of the most vicious thug.
If the UN really cared about freedom and empowerment for the world's people's, they would be spreading Anglo-American constituional rights and law throughout the globe instead of the compromised and insincerely ceded "entitlements" of global authoritarianism.
The UN is a by aand large run by failed states that support a failed ideology, what a sinkhole.
I like that analogy Cat Fur.
I will now start referring to the UN as the congress of failed states....and the commissariat of failed social order.
