Saudi Arabia arrests nearly 400K citizens annually on religious and moral grounds but the UN would rather criticize Canada

 The UN's top human rights official, Navi Pillay says in her speech, a copy of which UN Watch blog managed to get.
quote:Moves to restrict freedom of assembly continue to alarm me, as is the case in the province of Quebec in Canada in the context of students’ protests.unquote
There's nothing in her speech about the lack of freedom to assemble in Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UAE .... nada, zilch, zero, nothing.  What a hypocrite of a woman !!   What a hypocritical organization !!

How many kilos in gold chains do you receive annually from your masters the Saudis, Ms Pillay?  Those chains are keeping your morals and conscience in their hands, you lying hypocrite.

WHEREAS in the kingdom of white gowns and black tents whose population is   less than 27 Million,  the annual arrests made on moral and religious wrongdoing  are almost 400,000.  What does that tell you?  Even more, what does that tell you about the lunatic asylum like the UN which is filled to the brim with the worst madcaps known to common sense individuals?

From Saudi blogger Saudi Jeans we hear that:

....Al-alsheikh has had some quiet months on the job since then, but that did not last for long. The Nail Polish Girl affair came and forced him to speak up.


The typical response to stories like this in the past was usually very defensive. Typically, the Commission president or spokesman man would come out to defend and justify the aggressive behavior of their staff in the field, and accuse the media – local and international – of targeting the Commission and being biased against it.
However, things went a bit differently this time. Instead of defending them, Al-alsheikh attempted to play down the story and instead directed criticism at his own men saying Commission members who abuse their power would be fired immediately.


That was unusual, to say the least.
Are we finally going to see change in the Commission? Is Al-alshiekh serious about reform? And even if he has a true desire to fix it, can he actually do that? The Commission annual report for last year offers some numbers that could help us answer the aforementioned questions.


According to the report, most of the employees in this government body are not very educated. The Commission employs 4389 men: 60% of the these employees do not have a college degree, and half of those did not even finish high school. It is safe to assume that most of them are field officers, the ones you usually see in malls and patrolling streets in white GMC trucks.


The report indicates that the Commission field offers have arrested 392,325 persons for two types of offense: religious and moral. That number translates to 1.5% of the country’s population, and it shows a 20% increase over the previous year.


The news items that I have read summarizing the report’s conclusions do not provide more details regarding the nature of the offenses, but based on history we can probably guess that the definition of what actions count as offenses depend on the interpretation the Commission field officers. The very same officers who severely lack education and who seem to act as if they are entitled by God to perform their job, even if that meant infringing on citizens’ rights and invading their privacy.


Looking at the numbers, history and the status quo in the country, fixing the Commission might seem like an impossible mission. There are very few reasons to be optimistic, and so many ones to be pessimistic. Abdul-Latif Al-alshiekh has to turn it around and somehow make it work in a modern country where citizens know their rights and fight for them. He will probably need a magic wand. Would his men let him have one?


With all the human right abuses going on in Muslim countries, the hypocrite Pillay and the entire United Nations have the gall to criticize Canada?   
We must get out of the lunatic asylum.   The sooner the better.
