Makes perfect sense in a senseless world where Yassir Arafat, the father of modern terrorism, was given the Nobel Peace Prize, and Obama too for no accomplishment whatsoever. What's next? Elhanan

Its the same Saudi who is going to execute 28 people for the Mecca accident

Gemm12 • 8 years ago

Yes, because the US was so gracious in welcoming them to the Human Rights Commission, the Saudi's invited Obama and his colleagues to the beheading and crucification of the 18 year old who has been scheduled for execution.

Mahan99 • 8 years ago

Unbelievable to say the least....shame on Obama for "welcoming" these savages to this Commission. Let's put China, Russia, Iran, and Israel on there too so the "A Team" of Global Human Rights will be in charge of this Killer's Commission....What's next ....making ISIS a UNESCO Member!

Daisy Adler • 8 years ago

Saudi Arabia has taken the number of beaheadings for the year 2015 to 100 capital executions by sword, so it's really deserving the leadership of United Nations Human Rights Council. It beats ISIS record to a pulp for the same place. Next year we can expect the "Islamic State" to replace it at UN.

Daisy Adler • 8 years ago

"The United States said this week it was pleased to hear of Saudi Arabia’s leadership role on a United Nations Human Rights Council"

Nowadays, the United States take the side of all kinds of head-choppers, Saudi Arabia or ISIS murderers.

Arabists in the State Department of course cheer Saudi Arabia “Leadership in UNHCR and so does the Islamist in chief in Washington. Anybody with a heart and a brain is horrified. Impeach! Impeach!

The American Government are so stupid that it is "criminal."

How can a country that beheads people for monir crimes be on any Human Rights Council?

Joe420k • 8 years ago

New Rule, no country can be on the UNHRC if that country denies women the right to drive a car. This whole thing is a joke. No country in the Middle East is worthy to be on that council. All have blood on their hands. Post Ottoman era has not been kind to tranquility. The maps will keep changing for years to come. Saudi Arabia has been the lynch pin fueling ALL that is bad with Sunni Islam today. It's no secret what they have been up to, using their enormous wealth to expand their version of Islam on a global scale. The chickens have come home to roost a million times over. Insane how the world looks the other way while Saudi Arabia has a record worthy of nothing but condemnation. They play the political game as good as their neighbor up north. And could match them dollar to dollar. Israel doesn't seem to be bothered with their good neighbor fueling the ever expanding Jihad nation. A interesting dance between two powerful tribes that claim to represent their religious cohorts across the globe. They view their role as divinely inspired as guardians of the sacred land. And of course, the good book each side claim came from the heavens. Be curious to see how much political capital Israel is willing expend to criticize the addition of Saudi Arab to this council. My guess, not a peep.

You didn't build that! • 8 years ago

The UNHRC would be obsessed with Israel, regardless of who the policymakers are. So, it's actually in Israel's interests for it to be a rogues gallery. American voters, on the other hand, should be questioning the rectitude of their government's participation in such a farce.

Joe420k • 8 years ago

I beg to differ. No one is safe if Wahhabi Sunni Islam continues it's death march across the Middle East. That includes Israel. Look around and see how the neighborhood is up in flames. The call for the jihadists to march to Mecca and Jerusalem might get louder as they expand south.

You didn't build that! • 8 years ago

The UNHRC will be obsessed with Israel, with or without the Saudis. Hopefully, the next American administration won't want to be a party to that.

Yudah ben Amram • 8 years ago

This "appointment" makes as much sense as it would have to appoint Goebbles or Himmler to a human rights' watchgroup. Then again, the Useless Nations are now a coalition of mostly Muslim entities pushing islamofascists agendas worldwide.

Viva Yo • 8 years ago

Without doubt, YoMAMA has to be the most duplicitous POTUS ever.

I am not talking about Lying, which is an oxymoron to Politics.

No matter what you thought of WBush, it is not 100% that he lied about Iraq's WMDs, but at least he remained loyal to his foreign allies.

YoMama is an effing opportunist. He plays ping-pong with Saudi Arabia, first bowing and kissing the ring of Ibn Saud, then several years later he kicks sand in the face of his son King Abdullah. Now, he reverts with the chutzpah and the gall not to merely accept, but to welcome the Saudis as leaders of the UN Human Rights commission? The country that is the poster boy of fascist nepotism, apartheid, misogynism, gay-executing, adulteress stoning, and body part chopping for minor crimes?

YoMama is a serial liar with no sense of integrity, and a demagogue that manages to woo the gullible US democrats time after time. Despisable.

Medhat Ghabrial • 8 years ago

complacency and stupidity and ignorance of the Obama administration. Money and evil dealings are more important than honesty, truth, moral standing and courage. Obama at his best again. Congratulations, they just gave the serial child rapist the keys to the new Kindergarten.

robeka • 8 years ago

Assad is going to be named UNHRC president, so he would have the opportunity to improve the way to kill people around the world and within his own country.
He's someone that really know about that.
So the US advisor said.

robeka • 8 years ago

Sad, the UNHRC have now a contry with one of the worst HR records. Women as second class, head cutting, hands cutting, whoever speak against the regime go to jail or is sentenced to death, no democracy, total apartheid ( no jews allowed even for visiting).
One more UN institution that is worth nothing.

What would be so pleasing about that?

How will this IMPROVE global human rights?

I just don't...

“It is scandalous that the UN chose a country that has beheaded more people this year than ISIS to be head of a key human rights panel,” Neuer said.

this would be sad if the un had any credibility at all when it comes to giving a fuqk about human rights, but since it doesn't this is actually really funny.

the un is the "bizarro world" of int'l bodies, so the fact that israel has more resolutions against it than all other countries combined is actually a testament to how great of a tiny nation it really is.

"The United States said this week it was pleased to hear of Saudi Arabia’s leadership role on a United Nations Human Rights Council advisory group."

Says the MBH who is the new White House Counsel to Obama. I can't wait to see if Trump makes it to the White House. He can turn to all the Obama advisors and " Say !!"

JohnM96 • 8 years ago

Trump loves Saudi Arabia! He actually invests in a number of businesses alongside Saudi royalty. I bet the board meetings are super fun.

Here, you see the rotten fruit of a failed educational system. A sucker for radical causes, without a single thought of his own. Spitting in the wind, perfectly convinced that he's showering the world with wisdom. How dumb does one have to be to spout such drivel where it can't possibly reach receptive ears?

"...an occasion for them to look at human rights around the world but also within their own borders”

I want to say that this is a joke, but countless human beings are dying and suffering under the house of Islam. I'm also interested in Senator Graham's, the lead author of the 9/11 commission report, missing pages that “point a very strong finger at Saudi Arabia as the principal financier” of the 9/11 hijackers.

Saudi Arabia is, arguably, the one country in which slavery is most widespread.

This, mind you, is the country the US State Department of Mr. Obama and Mr. Kerry endorse to head the UN Human Rights Council.

No wonder, one can't but be cynical about the US Obama administration, the UN in general and the UNHRC.

This article once again highlights and indicts BHO for his worthless platitudes for human rights and appalling lack of honesty and integrity as well as sullying the reputation of the country he is supposed to represent, the once mighty & proud U.S. who used to be the defender of the human spirit. Shameful...

Sarita La Cubanita • 8 years ago

I feel a need to correct the first sentence of this article so it is more accurate.

BEFORE: "The United States said this week it was pleased to hear of Saudi Arabia’s leadership role on a United Nations Human Rights Council advisory group."

AFTER: "Barack Hussein Obama is pleased to hear of Saudi Arabia’s leadership role on a United Nations Human Rights Council advisory group."

Aryeh15 • 8 years ago

BHO and the State Department = lovers of Islam in all forms.

The American people are appalled.
