Sixty years after the UN adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the world is seemingly split between North and South or rich and poor as nations argue over what rights should take priority civil and political or economic and social rights.

The UN passed resolutions BANNING criticism of Islam's violation of UN Declaration of Human Rights: article 18 among other violations. The Human Rights Council actually SIDED WITH the violaters of the Declaration of Human Rights. Thus, the UN ENDORSES Islamic attacks on atheists, polytheists, apostates, women and homosexuals and BANS the VICTIMS from criticising these violations. The UN is not capable of talking about Human Rights. The UN is no more than a stooge for rich Islamic oil states.

What is the use of this council if it just meets but takes no action? Most countries and corrupt regimes don't change their policies because they are shamed.

Couldn't have said it better, you are absolutely right. The double standard persist because of human greed, "we" support,like, and are even willing to accept flaws of yours if you have money, and therefore power over us.

For the past 61 years, Israel has refused to allow the Palestinian refugees to go back.

Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Article 13 (2):

Everyone has the right to leave any country, including his own, and to return to his country.

There is a definite standard to hold Israel accountable.
