Sudan in UN Human Rights Commission is a joke, but the sad thing is that there are more non-democratic countries vs. truly democratic countries in the world - unfortunally this also shows in the UN. However good thing is that democracy is winning - it is expanding...

There are about 85 countries in the world representing 38 percent of the global population who are free, democratic, lawful and respectful of human rights. The numbers are growing fast - just look at the 20th century, when democracy took off, and think 100 years from now... countries like Sudan will be fewer and fewer...

If we can keep the UN alive for the next 50 years, then we might see the day, when a democratic globe solve its issues in civilized manners via the UN... and maybe, just maybe - this could leave the globle to real world peace...
