HIJACK

NSW Jewish Board of Deputies Chief Executive Vic Alhadeff writes in the Australian about how the UN human rights agenda has been hijacked - UN's human rights agenda hijacked.

The institution of the UN is vital. The extent to which it has been hijacked has reached crisis point, however. The imperative to tackle human rights issues is thus subsumed by anti-democratic agendas. It falls to the democracies among us to haul this once-august body back on track.
