Admissible & Inadmissible: Speeches at the U.N. Human Rights Council

Prequel to the Banned Speech by UN Watch's Hillel Neuer to UN Human Rights Council. Ambassador Luis Alfonso de Alba of Mexico, president of the council, welcomes every offensive statement: denial of crimes in Darfur; mocking of human rights experts; invective against women and gays; glorification of terrorism; Holocaust denial; demonization of Israel -- all admissible. Yet he ruled only one statement "inadmissible": UN Watch's criticism of the Council for ignoring victims of violations in 192 countries, and its failure to live up to the noble dream of its founders.
