The UN will save us Sen. Dick

No Need to worry, the United Nations Human Rights Commission (America's not on it)is on the case. The Global Diplomats have assuaged our disappointment by installing Libya, Sudan, Syria and Cuba on the Commission to make sure human rights get a fair shake on Planet Earth.

CUBA
For the crime of reporting the news, Jorge Olivera Castillo spent most of two years in the hellish conditions of Cuba's prisons. The director of a small independent news agency, the Havana Press, Olivera Castillo was one of 29 journalists arrested in a massive government crackdown on dissidents and the independent media in March 2003. He was convicted in a one-day, closed-door proceeding under a law prohibiting acts "aimed at subverting the internal order of the nation and destroying its political, economic, and social system." ...we were placed in solitary confinement. We had an hour a day to get some sun. I began having pain in my bones, due to the cell's humidity and the lack of sunlight. I was sick all of one year. The food arrived rotten sometimes, and the water was muddy and brown. I contracted parasites twice. ...Hunger, alienation, the guards' willingness to beat up prisoners who in many cases do not deserve it—the prisoners become so alienated that they turn to self-mutilation. I saw two people make a hot paste by melting plastic shopping bags and then put their hands inside this substance. They lost their hands, which were amputated, and were released on medical parole. Other people stab themselves; swallow wires, small spoons; take fluids that are harmful to their digestive system. To sum it up, it's a world of horror.

SUDAN
The Sudanese Government has a poor human rights record. The Government's security forces reportedly commit extrajudicial killings, rape women, torture, beat and abuse detainees and prisoners and harass and detain persons on the basis of their religion and political affiliation, generally with impunity. The security forces reportedly arrest and detain persons arbitrarily. Those prosecuted cannot be guaranteed a fair trial.

Libya
It is customarily during the process of the arbitrary and unlawful detention to experience searches without courts permission, looting and robbing all the detainees possessions and harassing their wives and daughters. In most cases, the bosses themselves torture the detainees to get information from them or to make them admit doing something, which may lead sometimes to death. They do this as a means of punishment or terrorising the detainees. Also they arrest their parents and torture them to get information from them or to force their wanted relatives to surrender themselves

The types of torture include beating on hands and feet with belts and sticks and electric cables, hanging in twisted and painful positions while beating, using electric shocks, raping and sexual violence as well as threatening them to rape their wives and daughters to force them to admit, not to mention the inhumane treatment that prisoner meets inside the prison like forcing him in many times to drink his urine.
