The Issue

OUTRAGE: On Nov. 12th, the U.N. plans to elect Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chávez to its highest human rights body. This will grant legitimacy to an ailing autocrat who persecutes journalists, judges, human rights activists and student leaders; a man who supports the butchers of Syria and Iran -- just as he backed “brother” Col. Qaddafi to the bitter end. Read more: www.unwatch.org/StopChavez.
