United Nations Human Rights Council

Saudi Arabia to behead man 
for renouncing Islam

Defendant to be executed after he posted a video of 
himself ripping up a Quran, hitting it with his shoe

So the sensible thing would be to take the case to the United Nations. Go to the UN Human Rights Council and get the barbaric Saudi Arabian sentence overturned.

But wait a minute - look at the list of members of the United Nations Human Rights Council - Saudi Arabia is a member until December 31st, 2016.

Now there's a conflict of interest if ever there was one. A country famous for abusing human rights has the United Nations backed power to decide whether or not it abuses human rights.
