1. Pull out
Kevin ,   Pittsurgh USA   (04.21.09)
why do we still stay in the UN...
2. Names, please.
jv ,   LA, USA   (04.21.09)
Anybody know where I can find a list of the names of the delegates and the countries who endorsed this crap? tia
3. Come up with a better alternative!
Edithann ,   USA   (04.21.09)
What's the alternative? Let it all be a 'free for all'? Isn't that what we've been trying to avoid?..Just because you don't like seeing the truth about Israel as others see it..only means some viewpoints have to change.. Have you ever giving any thought to why the Jews had to steal Palestine, make 4 million Palestinians homeless and the rest in Concentration Camps? When you come up with that answer..then you'll know why we need a UN... Lets see if Yetnews has the B---s to post this? TATA
4. Xenophobia and Racism.
Aaron ,   SF, USA   (04.21.09)
Because the Arab world is so welcoming of Jews, Americans, Asians, Christians, Druze, Sectarian differences, Homosexuality, African tribal differences, etc. How the hell was Ahmadinejad given the honor of opening the week long meeting up? Hints of Institutionalized racism still existing is a problem but it is hardly anything compared to the atrocities committed in the countries that oppose Israel, which is why putting blame on Israel - an extremely diverse country where B'Hai, Druze, Bedouins, Ethiopians, Libyans, Moroccans, and Arabs can live with rights - makes things worse. International bigotry plagues the world from being able to fix their own problems. Racism will be conquered when each country tackles their internal problems before blaming others. Turkey, Lebanon, Libya, Spain, and many other countries would like to pressure Israel before fixing their own backyard.
5. The U. N.
Bernie ,   Brooklyn, USA   (04.21.09)
What did we REALLY expect? I am with Kevin on this one.... Bernie :)
6. Oxymoronic!!!!
EST ,   Miami USA   (04.21.09)
Look at who is participating in this endorsement ... Lybia= very well known for its'LACK of human rights, Iran= no need to repeat most of what they believe in ... including the fact that they "don't have any homosexuals"(of course they failed to mention the small technicality of why ... they kill them!), funding from Saudi Arabia= where women are beheaded for protecting their children from abusive relatives among other HUMAN RIGHTS ... uhu! Very high standards for the UN so called Human Rights council....If they don't like Israel ... great honor for Israel who doesn't stoop to the animalistic behavior of the countries that make up the so called UN Council for Human Rights
7. He's back-tracking.
Ypip ,   Canada   (04.22.09)
8. He just says what says to stay in power
Knowles2 ,   Coventry England   (04.22.09)
Just two things faild to mention, one there clear paragraph in the declaration that say theHolocoust did happen and it should never be forgotten and Iran signed up to that document menaing he agrees with that statement. He says what says in public to stay in power it not neccessary what he believes in or what he know he got to do for his country.
9. UN more useless than a rotten fish.
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (04.22.09)
10. to #8 you nieve
gsea   (04.22.09)
Iran sign that paper only after the big boycotting from europ countries, she as always trying to give you what you want to hear, she needs europ support badly, but as you see http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3704653,00.html they r still deny the holocaust and don't recognize the jews right to have their own stat, well Israel is the only jewish satat there is.
