U.N.surprised
Hyperlink! Among the member-states of the UN's shiny new Human Rights Council: Cuba (undemocratic), where there is only one political party and those with HIV/AIDS are locked away without any due process; China (undemocratic), where there is only one political party and countless tens of thousands of politicla prisoners have simply disappeared from the face of the earth; Pakistan (undemocratic), where Osama bin Laden makes his home and A.Q. Khan is a national hero; Saudi Arabia (undemocratic), where women can be imprisoned for leaving the house unescorted by a male relative and Filipino guest workers are forbidden from practicing Christianity even while they form the backbone of the Saudi economy; and Russia (democratic!), whose population never met a Serbian war crime they didn't applaud and whose army has been unspeakably brutal in Chechnya. The new and "improved" Human Rights Council, just as sick a joke as the old Human Rights Commission.

Hyperlink 2! India is the world's most populous democracy, America is the world's most powerful democracy. There is absolutely no reason why the Republic of India and the United States of America should not become the best of friends. On top of producing nifty devices to ease everyday living and revealing mind-blowing truths about the world around us, science also creates camaraderie. Science!
