Courageous women in the Islamic Republic of Iran are taking off their hijabs as a sign of resistance to the oppressive Sharia regime under which they live, and at least 29 women have been arrested for doing so. Some of them have gotten long prison terms. A lawyer who defends women who don’t wear the hijab was sentenced to 38 years in prison and 148 lashes.
The UN is a sick joke, and should be defunded entirely and expelled from New York.
“Iran Appointed to U.N. Women’s Rights Committee,” by Adam Kredo, Washington Free Beacon, March 13, 2019:
Iran, one of the top human rights abusers in the world, has been awarded a seat on a key United Nations committee that oversees complaints about the global abuse of women.
An announcement by the U.N. on Wednesday said that Iran and Nigeria, another country that is no stranger to human rights abuses, would be promoted to the international organization’s Committee on the Status of Women, which oversees abuses committed by oppressive states, such as Iran and Nigeria.
Foreign policy observers on Twitter were quick to condemn the decision and bemoaning the U.S. taxpayer dollars that are used to fund such committees….

With this Islamic tyrannical misogynistic regime of Iran it’s even more extreme, to murderous extent, than imprisoning women for refusing to wear the hijab
This is because human rights in that vicious “mullah regime “ of Iran don’t actually exist especially for females. For that heinously cruel and murderous Islamic tyranny is very brutal and vicious to the Iranian people. Especially regarding females. Both girls and women. For example a teenage girl in Iran was talking to her boyfriend on the phone and then the Islamic state “police” walked over to her and shot her dead. They did that wicked and malicious thing to her because she was talking to her boyfriend and they also didn’t like her clothing. [1] That was a clear cut case of murder and vicious Islamic madness by Iran’s Islamic state “ police”, who call themselves the “Revolutionary Guards”, they got away with their hideous and malice –filled evil because the mullahs as well as other villains in power in that Islamic tyranny. .

One would think that as HALF the population,
women would halt matters until corrected.
Sometimes the world needs “Lysistrata” type of women of old Greek Myth… but that is Western tradition.
[Lysistrata ( Greek: “Army Disbanded” ) is an ancient Greek comedy by Aristophanes]

To imprison women for not wearing the hijab is but one part of the anti-female tyranny of this tyrannical “mullah regime” of Iran.
For that ruthless cruel brutal heinous l regime of Iran that is so unfittingly has the word “Republic” in its title ,for its called “ The Islamic Republic of Iran” [ I R I]. On the topic of this Islamic tyranny a former Muslim revealed that “The IRI system recognizes women as dependent upon men and incomplete human beings who need to be supervised and controlled by men and the State. This author further exposed that “Women are created for the purposes of giving pleasure to men and child bearing – functions that confine them to the home” This is a male Chauvinistic as can possibly be. In addition this writer further makes it known that “The IRI legal system still retains traditional patriarchal bias that can be described as nothing but systemic subordination of women , which is undoubtedly a human rights violation .” This author further reveals that “Iran is of what Islamic fundamentalists desire, an Islamic State, and the consequence of achieving it “State Terror. Instead of utopia, Iran is an Islamic totalitarian nightmare…” and “the Islamic Republic of Iran exists and operates as what every Islamic fundamentalist dreams of, an Islamic state ruled by Sharia …What followed its establishment was the inevitable consequence and inexorable logic of its Islamic premises; state terrorism, a merciless tyranny.” [1] This heinous Islamic has been also exposed by another author who was born and lived in a Middle Eastern nation for many years. She wrote “Female freedom and independence is one of the greatest sins in Islam…” and “Women in Islam are considered unclean, deemed inferior even to dirt.” [2] All this is wicked, unjust and misogynistic to the extreme. Islam had not regard for human life, regardless of what the apologists for this religion will claim.

Robert Spencer states:
“The UN is a sick joke, and should be defunded entirely and expelled from New York.”
This certainly seems reasonable to me. Can anyone think of any strategic reason, in the best interest of the United States, why the UN should NOT be defunded – and expelled from New York?

Nope.

Nothing is beneath the UN which needs to become as extinct as the League of Nations. And at least the League of Nations was “merely” impotent while the UN is regularly malevolent.

So true.

Not sure why we don’t hear more on this issue from Persian-America author Azar Nafisi or from uber-feminist author Irshad Manji….

The UN committee that oversees complaints of violence toward women. I guess the purpose of putting Iran on the committee is to ensure that there is enough violence towards women — not to reduce it. Mission accomplished. Once again the inmates are put in charge of the institution.
It goes without saying that the violence against women in islam is not really “violence towards women” at all but necessary training of these “inferiors” and that it is for their own good. Give me a break.
When history looks back on this period of insanity the world is experiencing today the world will simply shake its head in disbelief. In this context it’s surprising that the UN has not given humanitarian awards to Hitler, Stalin or Mao…yet.

The UN is organizing and fighting for more countries to join the EU and give their sovereignty up….this sounds like an organized group trying to take over the globe. The UN should be looked at as an enemy of democracy and freedom. I am watching the UN and EU very closely and i do not like what i see.

The last I read is that we are blowing 10 billion dollars a year for this rat hole. About 20 percent of the UN budget.

A new body should be created named the United Civilized Nations. Any democratic nation that protects freedom of speech and freedom of religion could become part of it.
If only.

As Iran imprisons women for not wearing hijab, UN names it to women’s rights committee
……………….
Just perverse–but no surprise. The UN has been appointing the world’s worst human right’s abusers to its various human right’s councils for decades now.
