No Free Speech at the UN

Filed by Yaakov Menken @ 12:43 pm

Apparently this was the first time the Council president, Ambassador Luis Alfonso de Alba of Mexico, ever rejected a speech as “inadmissible.” So after you watch, you can have a look at the various comments which he admitted with thanks to the delegates.

  1. How do we convince people that the UN has become a tool for third world dictators to try and pull everybody down into their level?

  2. Everytime I begin to think that the internet, and especially youtube is bringing us down a level, something like the full video comes along and I realize it can still do powerful good stuff to expose hypocrisy and educate a lot of ordinary folks and young folks. No transcript would have the same circulation ,and even if it somehow did, it just wouldn’t have the same impact. You just see it - it shows itself.
