Appointments

Our old pal Jean Ziegler has just been elected one of 18 “experts” on human rights whose job is to advise the United Nations on, well, human rights.

The election is good news for the Castro regime.

After all, as readers of this blog would be aware, the Left-wing Swiss academic has a thing for dictators, especially those of the “revolutionary” variety such as Muammar al-Gaddafi. And Robert Mugabe. And of course, our very own Fidel Castro.

Here is the announcement of his election. And here is some background.

Totally shameless.
