The foregoing is a link to the roster of member nations of the United Nations Human Rights Council. It includes such well-known bastions of human rights as Angola, Bahrain, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, China, Cuba, Djibouti, Nigeria, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Senegal, to name but a few.
Australia, Israel, New Zealand and the United States have declined to participate in this august body -- thank goodness. |
