UN General Assembly seeks to Protect Transvestite Terrorists
More United Nonsense
No More Muslim Sexual Stereotyping

Warning.
If you are employed by airport security, do not frisk terror suspects with mustaches in women’s garb.
If you work for Homeland Security, do not pat down Middle Easterners with pointed objects protruding from their full length black burqas.
Should the Muslims in questions be men in drag or trans-genders, you may be dragged before the international court of law at The Hague for a human rights violation.
The United Nations General Assembly is considering a blanket ban on security measures taken to detect terrorists that ”risk unduly penalizing transgender persons whose personal appearance and data are subject to change.”
Martin Scheinin, a UN Special Rapporteur, in a report to the international body of legislators says that current security practices are offensive to “persons of diverse sexual orientation and gender identities.”
A Special Rapporteur is an individual who works for the United Nations under a mandate from the UN Human Rights Committee.
In the report, Mr. Scheinin writes: “Enhanced immigration controls that focus attention on male bombers who may be dressing as females to avoid scrutiny make transgender persons susceptible to increased harassment and suspicion.”
The Special Rapporteur goes on to contend: “Counter-terrorism measures that involve increased travel document security, such as stricter procedures for issuing, changing and verifying identity documents, risk unduly penalizing transgender persons whose personal appearance and data are subject to change. This jeopardizes the right of persons of diverse sexual orientations and gender identities to recognition before the law”
Frank Gaffney, founder and president of the Center for Security Policy, expressed his outrage at the report in an interview with CNSNews.com.
“It strikes me as a parody of U.N. political correctness and sexual universality,” Mr. Gaffney said, “and it’s just hard for me to believe that anybody thinks that these notions actually should trump security concerns – as I think it’s only too clear that … the people who are trying to blow us up have absolutely no use for any of these sexual proclivities.”
Gaffney also pointed out that terrorists “would be only too delighted to take advantage – indeed we’ve seen them taking advantage – of burqas and other subterfuges to disguise their malign intents.”
In the report, Mr. Scheinin also takes aim at perceived gender roles, suggesting that counter-terror practices involving both sexes be reevaluated due to their basis in traditional perceptions of gender. He writes: “The United Kingdom anti-radicalization initiatives seeking to include Muslim women as counter-terrorism agents on the basis of their position ‘at the heart not only of their communities but also of their families,’ may reinforce stereotypical gender norms about roles of women within the family.”
The use of masculine gender roles in counterterrorism also draws Scheinin’s ire. He says that “techniques that seek to evoke feelings of emasculation in detainees or suspected terrorists may hinder the fight against terrorism by provoking hyper-masculine responses that include acceptance or advocacy of violence.”
Steven Groves, a fellow at the conservative Heritage Foundation, expressed a lack of surprise at the report, saying that it was comparable with Scheinin’s past work for the UN and typical of the UN Human Rights Council.
“Instead of the Human Rights Council focusing how the human rights of people who are blown apart by terrorists impact people’s human rights,” Groves said, “they created a new office for someone to go and make sure that the terrorists’ human rights, and the human rights of almost everyone else – except for the victims of terrorism – are being protected, and so that is (Scheinin’s) mission.”
