the decision by the WHO to appoint Robert Mugabe as a goodwill ambassador has raised a few questioning eyebrows because of his country’s record of human rights abuse – http://tinyurl.com/y7m546u5
I suspect this appointment is purely a symbolic one, however – don’t expect much in the . . .
way of active promotion of the work of the WHO by a 93 yr old man who spends much of his time asleep . . .
I can only imagine that the old tyrant has some embarrassing photos of WHO leaders shagging small boys, or goats, or reading The Daily Mail.
There’s no other reason why this mass murderer should be being recognised, other than in court.

The WHO is part of United Nations. Didn’t the UN appoint a Saudi recently as a human rights advocate?

The UN are also responsible for the War on Drugs, which has killed more than 100,000 people in Mexico alone since 2006, so it’s anybody’s guess how many people have died or lost their freedom worldwide in the past 50-odd years.
