Iran “concerned over human rights violations in Ireland”

[Doozer]

RACISM IN IRELAND was discussed at the UN Human Rights Council meeting today.
The 19th session the council was a follow-up hearing on Ireland’s commitments*as part of the Universal Periodic Review
. The country wishes to become a member of the UN Human Rights Council.
During the meeting, Iran’s representative welcomed Ireland’s report but said Iran remains concerned over human rights violations in Ireland.
He said this was in regard to the frequent occasions of racism, xenophobia and discrimination against Muslims and minorities in Ireland. He also alleged there was racial profiling undertaken by police in Ireland.
Iran’s representative went on to criticise the low living standards in many Irish prisons, such as overcrowding and inadequate santiation.
Iran recommended that Ireland take measures to tackle racial discrimination and combat more resolutely all forms of racism and xenophobia.
It also stated that the government should take firm action against perpetrators of these acts by promoting intercultural understanding and tolerance. Iran said Ireland should support Muslim citizens in enabling them to practice their religion.
Speaking in reply, Ireland’s ambassador to the UN, His Excellency Mr Gerard Corr, stated that there was no objective basis for the allegation that there is frequent discrimination against Muslims or persons belonging to minorities in Ireland.
He said that the Irish government is committed to ensuring any form of racism is combated and that members of the police force undergo anti-racism training.

There's a sh*t storm headed their way so I think they have more to worry about than human rights violations in little old Ireland

Not me - this is a deeply racist country. And the Irish abroad (where they are exposed to way more cultures than here) are the most racist, ignorant f**kers you can imagine.

Yes, the irony of Iran criticising Ireland for human rights abuse doesn't escape me, but the point is valid - this is a very racist country. Forget race - look at the different viewpoints between fellow 'Christians' throughout the 32 counties.

Was about time for someone to highlight this. Ireland is indeed very discriminative against minorities (and is very sneaky about hiding it).

Read somewhere recently that the Israelis had informed the Americans that they will hold off until after the US presidential election on 6th November. That leaves a further 45 days until the Mayan calendar ends. Armageddon is coming my friends and there aint enough room for us all in the national bunker in Athlone, so my advice is book your favourite escort, take her off to some romantic location (1 of the 10 places to see before you die) and then enjoy watching the last sunset together.
