Now it's the U.N. Human Rights Council

This past week, seventeen members of the Organization of the Islam Conference were elected to the "new and improved" United Nations Human Rights Council. That's right --the council responsible for addressing human rights violations includes representatives from several of the most repressive, Islamist countries, such as Saudi Arabia and Algeria. So much for Kofi Annan's attempt to restore credibility and relevance to the United Nations.

Ann Bayefsky, of Eyeon theUN.org, has the goods in the Washington Times.
