        Well of course it’s biased. Against countries committing horrific human rights violations. Like the US. That’s what it’s there for.

        How much has America changed? Please read about its history of Slavery, the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882, Jim Crow laws, the Emergency Quota Act of 1921, the Immigration Act of 1924, Japanese Internment, etc. How much has America changed? Not much really.

        Makes Sense....when USA leaders say nice things about Dicators, cozy up to them and envy the way they run their countries, the obvious next step is to leave the UN Human Rights Council and try to discredit it.

        N. Haley"When council passes 70+ resolutions against Israel, a country with a strong human rights record,&just 7 resolutions against Iran, a country with an abysmal human rights record, you know something is seriously wrong,” she wrote in an op-ed for The Washington Post

        Replying to @ReginaldOhiri @BBCNews There are many essays and editorials by reputable writers that go the other way.Hopefully someday when Hamas is not ruling,there will be a peaceful compromise.

        Oh the irony from a country separating children from their parents. I think the best hope we can have is that the US isolates itself into insignificance.

        Then fix your biased voting system maybe? You Americans are the entire reason why you have an orange dictator in office.
