Sorry for the long title but such surreal hypocrisy only comes along once in a life time. From Reuters:
GENEVA (Reuters) – A special U.N. human rights investigator will visit the United States this month to probe racism, an issue that has forced its way into the race to secure the Democratic Party’s presidential nomination.
The United Nations said Doudou Diene would meet federal and local officials, as well as lawmakers and judicial authorities during the May 19-June 6 visit.
“The special rapporteur will…gather first-hand information on issues related to racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance,” a U.N. statement said on Friday.
His three-week visit, at U.S. government invitation, will cover eight cities — Washington D.C., New York, Chicago, Omaha, Los Angeles, New Orleans, Miami and San Juan, Puerto Rico.
Race has become a central issue in the U.S. election cycle because Sen. Barack Obama, the frontrunner in the battle for the Democratic nomination battle, stands to become the country’s first African American president.
His campaign has increased turnout among black voters but has also turned off some white voters in a country with a history of slavery and racial segregation.
Diene, a Senegalese lawyer who has served in the independent post since 2002, will report his findings to the U.N. Human Rights Council next year.
Hey you know who else has a history of slavery and racial segregation? Every U.N. member state.
Arab Muslim states practice slavery of Black Africans now. Slavery wasn’t criminalized in Chad until 2003, where was the U.N. on that one? The Arabized northern peoples of Sudan regularly enslave the Black African animists and Christians of the south. This seems racist to me, or at least discriminatory. But the Sudanese practice of enslaving non-Muslims has suffered little criticism by the U.N. and it’s racist members.
The United Nations is complicit in the sexual slavery of children in Africa as it turned loose its filthy “peacekeeper” forces on that continent with implicit permission to rape and enslave.
The United Nations missions in Africa are marred by a history of rape and pedophilia. U.N. blue helmets who are caught exploiting refugees or forcibly raping women and little girls are usually transported out of the country and lightly punished:
Pamela Shifman, a UNICEF expert on sexual exploitation of children, said abuses are pervasive among U.N. peacekeepers deployed in countries that have been afflicted by grinding poverty and years of conflict. But, she said, “It is not inevitable. That’s a really important message — that we can address impunity. We can address accountability.”

Still, two Pakistani police were removed from Haiti last month after a local woman accused them of raping her at a banana farm outside Gonaives, U.N. officials said. A U.N. investigation dismissed the rape charge but expelled the Pakistanis for hiring a prostitute.
In September a Brazilian peacekeeper was accused of raping a minor in Port-au-Prince, Martin said. The United Nations concluded there was insufficient evidence to prosecute the peacekeeper, she said.
Sexual abuse scandals have shadowed the United Nations since the early 1990s, when U.N. peacekeepers in Cambodia were charged with sexually abusing girls. At the time, the U.N.’s top official in Cambodia, Yasushi Akashi, played down the gravity of the allegations, saying, “Boys will be boys.”
Human rights investigators and journalists documented widespread abuses in 2001 in Kosovo and Bosnia, where U.N. police operated brothels and trafficked women from Eastern Europe to engage in prostitution.
A U.N. spokesman in Kosovo, Neeraj Singh, said a series of reforms had curtailed such abuses. But Singh confirmed that a Pakistani staff member in the office of the High Commissioner for Refugees, Rashid Doon Khan, was arrested in Kosovo on Jan. 28 by an international prosecutor in Kosovo pending a pretrial investigation that “relates to sexual and narcotics-related charges involving minors.“
“Boys will be boys” is their response. And every rape victim was a prostitute. Odd when you realize that a hooker’s livelihood depends on discretion and regulars. Why would all these prostitutes make up stories of rapes by blue helmets? Maybe this needs a little more investigation.
And do we see a pattern here of certain groups, Black Africans and non-Muslim westerners, being targeted for sexual abuse? It’s almost as if the United Nations is full of people with some sort of animus toward those groups.
Even the BBC has lambasted the U.N. for its rape spree. And I’ll repeat that almost all the victims of the rapes, except for the Kosovo women targeted by Muslim peace keepers, are Black. All are African or Eastern European. This is clearly driven by racial animus, by the dehumanization of these groups by racist cultures.
But America needs to be investigated. America needs the U.N. to come in and set us straight on race relations. Right.
In almost every other U.N. member state a Bi-racial man born in the 70s, like myself, would have been murdered. He certainly would not have achieved success, not have lived a good life like I have. But those countries that still commit ethnic cleansing, like Darfur, Vietnam and Laos and Cuba are free to murder, rape and maim with U.N. approval.
Isn’t it time we stop paying the U.N. to act as if we’re Nazi Germany? If the U.N. doesn’t like America, maybe they should leave.
