And HRC told us her hero was margret sanger, of eugenics fame.

Maybe if the UN based this claim on the number of aborted female fetuses????

The only value of the UN is it gives spy agencies the opportunity to spy on each other.

Turn the UN into housing for the illegal aliens waiting for their trial date.

Well, there are multiple articles about it from 2015.

We live in a bizarro world where countries that stone women to death for "allowing" themselves to be raped, are condemning a country that had a female Prime Minister as far back as 1969 for women's rights abuses.

Quote:
Israel’s UN Ambassador Ron Prosor denounced the resolution saying it was further proof of the UN’s bias against Israel, as it was the only country singled out by the 45-member commission.

“If anyone has ever doubted that the UN is biased against Israel, today we got further proof. Of the 193 member states in this institution, dozens slaughter innocent civilians and impose discriminatory laws that marginalize women and yet they all get a free pass. The Commission on the Status of Women itself includes some of the worst violators of human rights, as Iran and Sudan,â€

Well we certainly know which way societies around the globe are morphing into.
And it's not pretty.

Women are losing their rights here with men taking over their sports, their jobs, their issues..all by declaring themselves women.

And I feel no sympathy as these now scorned women cheered them on in the beginning. So even the US is going down that path.

And this is something new? LOL


We are just going back to the old ways, that were in place for decades, what we went thru was just a brief temporary period when women gained some ground, thats it really.

Such a measure is so BLATANTLY FALSE that it eliminates any credibility of such declarations.

It simply shows that the UN hates Israel and is anti-semitic.
