Iran now on UN council of the Status of Women...wait, what?

This one is sadly true.  Iran now sits on a UN council group charged with monitoring the status of women globally.  Black is white, right is wrong and the needs of the few outweigh the needs of the many.

I have never been a fan of the UN and this is but another example of why they cannot be trusted to do the right thing.

 Iran joins UN's global body on the status of women

The UN quietly made way for Iran to join the global body's Commission on the Status of Women on Friday, just days after very publicly suspending Libya from its Human Rights Council. The Islamic Republic, which last year sentenced a supposedly adulterous woman to death by stoning and deploys police to harass women not deemed to be sufficiently covered, became one of the commission's 45 members as part of a group of 11 incoming countries. The UN General Assembly elected or
-- in Iran's case -- named by acclamation members last April to serve for four years but they are only now taking their positions....

I am sure world opinion against this affront to women will start any minute now.
Wait for it....
