UN president’s homophobia angers

A leading gay rights group has expressed concern at newly-appointed UN Assembly President Ali Abdussalam Treki’s recent comments regarding homosexuality and LGBTI rights.
In an interview prior to his first address to the UN Assembly in his new role, Treki was asked about the statement in favour of the decriminalisation of homosexuality signed by 66 countries and read by the Argentinian representative last December at the General Assembly in New York, and declared himself to be “not in favour at all”.
Treki also stated that decriminalisation was “not acceptable in the majority of the world” and that “there are some countries that allow that (sic), thinking it is a kind of democracy”.
The International Lesbian & Gay Association (ILGA) this week issued an appeal to the representatives of the States which signed the statement against criminalisation of homosexuality, but also voted to elect Treki, to demand an explanation from him.
The ILGA issued a statement expressing their “deep worry and outrage” at Treki’s “failure to consider the protection of the life and safety of lesbians, gay men, trans, intersex and bisexual people all over the world.
“Considering that the statement called for the universal decriminalisation of homosexuality, one cannot but conclude that the new President of the UN Assembly is in favour of criminalising lesbians and gay men, bisexual, trans and intersex people. The worrying and serious implications of this attitude, coming from the new head of an institution which is supposed to regard human rights – all human rights – as the most sacred value, cannot be overstated.”

  1. Positive identity politics based around sexuality may be a Western construct, but being attracted to members of one’s own sex is not – or why would anyone bother to attack people for it? The very point of democracy and international community is that everybody deserves representation, and in making these comments Mr Treki is directly failing in his duty to represent a significant proportion of the people who contributed to his election. His position is untenable.

  2. It is high-time to shut up and drown-out the stupid zeloted bigots!!!!

  3. Cadiz,

    Although we like people from the consulate to write here we prefer not to have idiots like you write.

    Can you please not take LSD when you write. I guess you get an erection going to gay websites like this or perhaps it is part of your job to monitor the media. You have a condition known as homophobia. Psychiatrist in the middle east can help you with this.

    Homosexuality existed long before you did in the Middle East. It will be around long after you are gone. Not a Western Costruct but reality. Fuckheads like you might be able to have us killed in parts of the Middle East, but you in Australia now. So go Fuck yourself if you do not like us! We do not care!

    This Monster in the UN is no different to other Monsters in the UN. We will remove him. He is a disgrace to humanity. Do not try and support him. You cannot win this one. Go back to your consulate and swallow one of those pills you have you idiot, and do not take LSD again as it does not agree with you!

  4. Dear Cadiz, It may be true that some people may hijack the movement to attain equal rights for homosexuals, for their own purposes.

    That does not alter the fact that homosexuals do want equal rights.

    Most of the world’s Muslims live in poverty and are not a threat to anyone. Muslim fanatics and scoundrels misuse the faith of Muslims and their poverty by encouraging those poor people to commit acts of terrorism. The fanatics and scoundrels do that to advance themselves to a higher status in their societies.

    In response to terrorism provoked by those scoundrels the Western nations direct their military forces to attack the poorest people in the world with the most advanced weapons in the world.

    A marketable mainstream commodity and a Western PR construct.

    Should we dismiss the outrages inflicted on the poorest people in the world because Anti-Terrorism is a marketable mainstream commodity and a Western PR construct?

    I do not.

    You dismiss the struggles by homosexuals throughout the world to gain equal rights because some people have hijacked that movement for their own purposes.

    You are a fucking idiot Cadiz.

  5. A welcome reminder of why living in western democratic nation’s has its pluses.

    No doubt the Libyan Treki was also welcoming the return home of the Lockerbie bomber…and cheering the good work done in bombing the evil Americans and its Scottish lackies.

  6. Homosexuality as a marketable mainstream commodity is a western PR construct, linked to pornography, prostitution, and anti-faith activism. Not a foundation for something if it is intended to endure.

    In Britain, as they head in the direction (once again) of Mary Zelden­rust-Noordanus’s perspective, it tends to look positively scary & unworkable.

    In Holland, is no ‘global’ future in what the COC are asking for, it is just not going to happen, so swings and roundabouts, and a period of net reversal.

    McCarthyism was the wrong way to go, because the Head of the UN, he is not going to buy into it, and he was voted into office by the very same people signing off on, an endorsement to gay globalism, not so long ago.

    Ali Abdussalam Treki, is more important than progressing the other, being the message.

  7. do not trust islamists because they do not think it is wrong to do anything anyone who is not a muslim
