One of the things that got erased off the Internet when my WordPress blog was suppressed was my discussion of the fact that conditions for women are bad in a lot of countries. There are a significant number of countries who are represented at the United Nations where I would already have been executed on live TV by now, just for speaking up about the government's abuses of me, or where I would be the mother of 10 mostly starving children, and so on. If today the United Nations is talking about "fisheries" and "floods in Pakistan" on its website, it's also because the United States is powerful in the world, and what the U.S. says goes in a lot of situations. It doesn't make what the Obama administration is doing right. There is nothing that's going to make what the Obama adminstration is doing the right thing to do.
