WHEN ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS: THE HUMAN RIGHTS RECORD OF THE UNITED NATIONS

Message:
Abstract:
This article examines the human rights abuses perpetrated by the United Nations missions in places like Kosovo، Congo and Haiti where the United Nations power has been practically comparable to the State power. It will also investigate similar cases of abuses committed by highest-ranking UN officials in New York headquarter and Geneva offices. The violations examined in this article include not just hundreds of documented cases of sexual assaults and rapes، and all kind sexual abuses often of children but also tear gassing students، assaulting international journalists، shooting at women and children and even killing peaceful protestors. The article will show that the terrifying human rights record of United Nations is in fact a result of the structure، nature and belief system of the ruling members and officials of the organization. The article also examines the close affiliation of this belief system with terror networks both before and after the end of the cold war.
