This is a serious man, with serious ideas.

You know what’s really important right now? Defeating the spectre of international Islamic terrorism, currently championed by ISIS.

But you know what’s even more important?

Respecting the human rights of those terrorists.

New York Times:

Death sentences for terrorism are often handed down after unfair trials by special courts that disrespect human rights and the rule of law, U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon said Monday in remarks commemorating World Day Against the Death Penalty.

While 65 countries retain the death penalty for terrorism-related offenses, experience shows that executing “terrorists” mostly fuels propaganda for their movements by creating perceived martyrs, Ban said.

“The death penalty is a cruel and inhumane practice. It has no place in the 21st Century,” Ban said. “To be legitimate and effective, counter-terror measures, like all security operations, must be anchored in respect for human rights and the rule of law.”

Ban Ban. Do it.

It’s insane that we’re even taking these sorts of statements seriously. It’s like we’re living in some absurd Monty Python parody of a society ruled by Jews, but the program never ends and the joke has worn thin.

And yes, you read his statement right. He’s saying that “if you kill the terrorists, they win.”

You just went full-Trudeau here. Never go full-Trudeau.

He also warned against states that criminalize free expression through vague anti-terror measures.

“Let us be clear: participation in peaceful protests and criticism of a government — whether in private, on the Internet or in the media — are neither crimes nor terrorist acts. The threat or use of the death penalty in such cases is an egregious violation of human rights,” Ban said.

Hey, wow, thanks, Ban. You’re basically saying that we should be allowed free speech, and that clamping down on “hate speech” in the name of fighting terrorism isn’t legitimate, right?

Right?

Oh, wait…

Somebody bog this faggot, for the love of the Lord…

If we’re going to have a gook chief of the UN, I nominate Duterte’s Nazi ambassador for the job.

The slant-eyed UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon has come out and condemned India for banning gay sex, suggesting that they should instead be encouraging men to stick their penises inside of other men’s anuses.

Ki-Moon made the statements as the UN was celebrating 70 years of terror at their UN70 anniversary extravaganza.

From the gay South African website MAMBLA we hear more on the brave statements of the Chief international gook:

“We are all different from one another, but we all have the same human rights. I am proud to stand for the equality of all people, including those who are lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender,” said Ban.

“I staunchly oppose the criminalisation of homosexuality. I speak out because laws criminalising consensual, adult same-sex relationships violate basic rights to privacy and to freedom from discrimination. Even if they are not enforced, these laws breed intolerance,” he explained.

IBN Live reported that Ban further stated that the “Indian government should really promote the human rights of those people with different sexual orientation, homosexuality. This penal code should be decriminalised for those people of homosexuality.”

…

Homosexuality was made illegal in India in December 2013 when the Supreme Court of India reinstated a colonial-era law criminalising gay sex.

It was recently revealed that almost 600 people have been arrested under the law over the past year. Penalties include life imprisonment.

It is only a matter of time before these exact same arguments are used in defense of pedophilia.  Seriously.  And anyone who went along with the faggot agenda is going to have no excuse not to go with the baby-sex agenda.

Eight members of the same family, including five children, have been killed in Israel’s Gaza offensive which has claimed 85 lives since it began its retaliation for Hamas rocket attacks on Tel Aviv and other Israeli cities.

Palestinian medical officials said a strike early Thursday struck a home in the southern Gaza city of Khan Younis, killing eight members of the Al Haj family.

Earlier, at least eight others were killed when a strike hit a Gaza beach café where they were watching the World Cup semi-final match between Argentina and the Netherlands, said Mahmoud Sawali, who said he lost at least two of his brothers in the attack.

The Israeli military said it was investigating both incidents. It also said it struck a car in Gaza carrying three Islamic Jihad militants involved in firing rockets.

The militant group confirmed that its men were killed in the strike. Hamas officials said that the Palestinian side of its border crossing with Israel had also been destroyed in Israeli airstrikes.

The Israeli military has continued its aerial offensive in Hamas-dominated Gaza for a third day today while militants fired rockets at Israeli cities.

The Health Ministry in Gaza has reported 85 deaths, including 22 today. It says about half were women and children though the exact breakdown could not immediately be confirmed. A four-year-old girl and a five-year-old boy were reported to have been among those killed today.

U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, who was due to brief the Security Council on the crisis later today, has condemned the rocket attacks and urged Israel to show restraint. He told reporters: ‘Gaza is on a knife edge.’

Military spokesman Lt. Col. Peter Lerner said Israel struck more than 320 Hamas targets overnight, focusing on underground tunnel networks and rocket launching sites. That brought the total number of targets hit to 750 in three days of the offensive.

Lerner said Israel has already mobilized 20,000 reservists for a possible ground operation into Gaza, but for the time being Israel remained focused on maximizing its air campaign.

The UN Security council has been meeting in secret for two days, planning action against Russia, which may in fact result in a NATO invasion of Ukraine and open war with occupying Russian forces.

They have now agreed to hold an open and televised meeting.

From the AP:

Ukraine has asked the other four permanent council members — the U.S., Britain, France and China — for help in stopping Russia’s “aggression.”

…

Ukraine’s U.N. ambassador, Yuriy Sergeyev, said Russia has rejected Ukraine’s proposal to hold immediate bilateral consultations.

U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said earlier Saturday that he is “gravely concerned about the deterioration of the situation” in Ukraine. He spoke later by telephone with Putin.

A Ban spokesman delivered the statement Saturday afternoon as members of the Security Council met in an emergency closed-door session for the second straight day on the rapidly developing events in Ukraine’s Crimea region.

The Security Council decided to hold the open meeting after struggling behind closed doors to reach agreement on how to meet. Some members wanted open, or public consultations, on Ukraine, which Russia initially opposed.

Ban’s statement called for “full respect for and preservation of the independence, sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine” and demanded the “immediate restoration of calm and direct dialogue between all concerned.”

British Ambassador Mark Lyall Grant said the meeting is to determine “what justification Russia claims to have” for its de facto military takeover of the strategic Crimea region.

As a permanent member of the Security Council, Russia has veto power and can block the U.N.’s most powerful body from adopting any resolution criticizing or sanctioning Moscow.

Outside the council chamber, Ukraine’s U.N. ambassador called on countries to do everything possible to stop Russia’s “aggression.”

“The Russian Federation brutally violated the basic principles of the Charter of the United Nations,” Sergeyev told reporters.

During a break, an exasperated Russian U.N. Ambassador Vitaly Churkin told reporters, “We are ready for serious discussions.“

Ban was flying to Geneva on Saturday where he planned to meet the following day with his special envoy Robert Serry, the Netherlands’ first ambassador to Ukraine.

This is absolutely shaping up to be a World War scenario.  I don’t know if that is going to happen.  And I don’t know if it would be a good thing or a bad thing.  It would certainly clear some things up.

The crazy Korean even went so far as to claim that the Jews are “working for peace.”  What does this even mean?

I think that North Korea guy should be the head of the UN instead.  He is super cool.

From the Jerusalem Post:

UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon praised the American Jewish community for its partnership in fighting injustice while stressing the need to “stand strong against extremists,” while speaking in New York Tuesday night.

At the 50th anniversary tribute gala dinner of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, Ban said the UN and American Jewry “share a common goal… and identical values” in the pursuit of “peace and human dignity for all.”

In his brief speech to the estimated 1,100 attendees, Ban said: “There can be no mistaking the distinct imprint that American Jewish organizations have made on the United Nations.

“Over the years we have campaigned together against injustice and intolerance. Our joint legacy is solid. The question now is where we go from here.”

Despite “living in an era of tremendous opportunity,” Ban acknowledged present threats and challenges. He reiterated that, “no one – not Jews, Muslims or anyone else – should suffer or be targeted because of the creed they follow.

“My position is unequivocal: anti-Semitism has no place in the 21st century,” he said. “Too much is at stake to allow such discrimination to persist.”
