The recently-abolished 53-member Human Rights Commission has re-incarnated as another avatar of mindless feckless inconsequential gibberish, now with fewer members, but much like its predecessor, a completely powerless propaganda vehicle for third-world countries with second-rate human rights records.
Besides Arab and other Muslim countries, "yes" votes were cast by African nations, Brazil, China, Cuba, Ecuador, Guatemala, India, Mexico, the Philippines, Russia and Sri Lanka. Only EU countries and Canada voted against a mandatory one-week review of alleged Israeli rights abuses.
The vote was 29 votes to 12. The effect will be to discredit the new smaller UN commission just as the old one had been completely ignored by informed world opinion. [As opposed to deformed world opinion in such bastions of humanity and freedom like China, Cuba, Russia, and the notoriously anti-human rights Muslim and African "political cultures."]
The United Nations simply appears impervious to serious reform. There is an irreducible core of morally, ethically, and politically retarded nations unable to rise out of the fever swamps their political elites require, like obnoxious insects, to procreate and subsist on parasitized populations.
Reforming the UN would require draining these swamps, destroying the political parasites, and inserting actual human rights into their constitutional cultures.
This is impossible, given the configuration of the UN, and so informed political observers will continue to treat the UN with the disdain and outright scorn this failed NGO deserves.
"Much have I seen and known; cities of men And manners, climates, councils, governments, ...the fortune of us that are the moon's men doth ebb and flow like the sea, being govern'd, as the sea is, by the moon" [Henry IV, I.ii.31-33] HISTORY NEVER REPEATS ITSELF, BUT IT OFTEN RHYMES "There is a Providence that protects idiots, drunkards, children and the United States of America." Otto von Bismarck
