Iran, Saudi Arabia likely to become a members UN Women agency board

The stupid Shia Iranians were rightly banned. Iran must be bombed by USA, Shia Islam is a lie and a deviance.

The Sunni Saudis were correctly allowed on the agency, since their views represent God's views.

Allah deems that women must fulfill various roles, and so Saudi Arabia must spread Allah's way via the agency.

Iran is a cancer, the same way that Indians and Isrealians are. China must bomb India and Syria for Israel.

Saudi Arabia and Pakistan will bring sense to humankind and will seek to educate Amreeka.

Allah hu akbar.

ISLAM WILL RULE THE WORLD, IT IS FAST GROWING IN USA.

So, is Islam a peaceful religion?

Is Christianity?

No. Then again, I'm an agnostic, lol.

btw, the 9/11 hijackers came from flight schools in the US, not from Saudi Arabia.

Whether it is Saudi Arabia, Iran, Egypt, or any similar ME country.

Women are treated with the up most dignity and respect.

The UN is correct in using these nations to teach the West how women should be treated.

The 2002 Mecca girls' school fire happened on March 11, 2002 in Mecca, Saudi Arabia. Fourteen students were killed. The event was especially notable due to complaints that Saudi Arabia's "religious police" (aka the Committee for the Propagation of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice) stopped schoolgirls from leaving the burning building and hindered rescue workers because they were not wearing correct Islamic dress.[1] As Hanny Megally, Executive Director of the Middle East and North Africa division of Human Rights Watch put it: "Women and girls may have died unnecessarily because of extreme interpretations of the Islamic dress code. State authorities with direct and indirect responsibility for this tragedy must be held accountable."[2]

According to at least two reports, members of the Committee for the Propagation of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice (CPVPV), also known as Mutaween, would not allow the girls to escape or to be saved from the fire because they were 'not properly covered', and the mutaween did not want physical contact to take place between the girls and the civil defense forces for fear of sexual enticement, and variously that the girls were locked in by the police, or forced back into the building.[2][6

The CPVPV denied the charges of beating or locking the gates but the incident and the accounts of witnesses were reported in Saudi newspapers such as the "Saudi Gazette" and "Al-Iqtisaddiyya". The result was a very rare public criticism of the group.[6]

Also criticized was the General Presidency for Girls' Education (GPGE), "an autonomous government agency long controlled by conservative clerics", that administers girls schools in Saudi Arabia.[2]

We need to call a meeting of all the world leaders to the UN building in New York, explain we can no longer support the UN, ask for those who support our position to walk out with us.

Once out we drop a small tactical nuclear weapon right on top with everyone inside.

If you stand beside a tyrant, you are a tyrant, and can die with the tyrants.

Compromise? Diplomacy? What a joke.

The United Nations rejected Iran's bid for a seat to the board of the new U.N. agency to promote equality for women after fierce opposition from the United States and human rights
groups to Tehran's treatment of women.

But the U.N. accepted the bid of Saudi Arabia, which is also opposed by human rights groups.

In Saudi Arabia, women are not allowed to drive and are barred from many facilities used by men.

The Asian group put forward an uncontested 10-nation slate that included Iran and Saudi Arabia,selected for one of two slots for emerging donor nations. The other nations selected by the Asian group for the board are Bangladesh, India, China, Malaysia, Indonesia, South Korea, Japan, Kazakhstan and Pakistan.

Just don't take the UN seriously anymore, the UN lost all credibility for me over the oil for food program, they aren't interested in protecting human rights only stealing money from the poor and profiting off other people's suffering. I wouldn't be surprised if the UN board is bribed daily.

From 2009:

Riyadh says there is "no discrimination against women in the laws of the Kingdom."

And Zeid Bin Abdul Mushin Al Hussein, vice president of the Saudi Human Rights Commission, told the experts: "Human rights in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia are based on Sharia law."

"Islamic principles reinforce human rights," he said.

But the application of Sharia law in a rape case last month drew international criticism and fanned concerns about the status of women in the conservative Islamic state, where powerful clerics demand the strict seclusion of females.

King Abdullah pardoned a 19-year-old woman sentenced to flogging for being in the company of a man she was not related to. The pair were abducted and gang-raped by seven men who were jailed for up to five years for their crime.

But U.N. experts questioned women's access to the police and judiciary to lodge complaints, and their rights to own land and get bank loans, especially in rural areas. They also raised concerns over the ability to choose or divorce one's husband, and rules prohibiting women from driving.

When a body such as the UN can be so stupid as to allow Islamic fanatics a say on women's rights, its time to dismantle the body.

The UN must be gotten rid of.

Saudi feminist Wajeha al-Hawaidar describes male guardianship as "a form of slavery."

"A Saudi woman can't even buy a phone without the guardian's permission," said al-Hawaidar, who has been banned from writing or appearing on Saudi television networks because of her vocal support of women's rights. "This law deals with women as juveniles who can't be in charge of themselves at the same time it gives all powers to men."

Some judges even punish the women themselves for rebelling against their fathers. In one high-profile adhl case, a young single mother, Samar Badawi, sued her father and demanded he be stripped of his guardianship. She fled her house in March 2008 and spent around two years in a women's protection house in Jeddah, waiting for the court ruling.

In April, she got it — she was sentenced to six months in prison for disobedience.

In Saudi Arabia, no woman can travel, gain admittance to a public hospital or live independently without a "mahram," or guardian. Men can beat women who don't obey, with special instructions not to pop the eye, break an arm or leave a mark on their bodies.

In the Saudi public school curriculum, boys are taught how to use their guardianship rights.

"Be jealous, beat her hands, protect her and achieve superiority over her," reads page 212 of the Prophet Sayings textbook for 11th grade.
