We should show no patience for liars.   Refer to the following:

For some time many of us have believed it time to remove our support from the UN and this is an example why.   Sadly, our persistent support for this organization of liars means that our taxpayer dollars support people like those who publish pure propaganda that is both demeaning and erroneous.    For example the link above is to an article that was written by UN "experts" denouncing the recent law enacted by the State of Arizona that enforces US Federal Law.  

The indented sentences, paragraphs or phrases below were lifted from the linked article:

"The Arizona law permits authorities to demand immigration papers from anyone stopped, detained or arrested who sparks a "reasonable suspicion" of illegal entry into the United States."

This is true.  This is also federal law.   All non-citizens must carry their immigration papers on them at all times.  If during a lawful stop or other lawful detention an officer has reason to suspect someone may not be legally in the United States, that officer may request the individual's legal identification.  The Arizona law also identifies specific documents that attest to an individual's status as a citizen or legal resident which are to be accepted without question.  Among these are a valid driver's license or state issued identification card that itself would require proof of status prior to its issuance.  

"...in violation of global accords that are binding in the United States, such as the international convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination and a separate convention on the Protection of the Rights of All Migrant Workers and Members of Their Families."

The Arizona law is specific in its statements that a reasonable suspicion cannot be based solely upon the racial characteristics of the individual.   The fact that this law specifically forbids racial profiling in no way makes it any easier to racially profile today than it was prior to this law being enacted.   

"The experts also take aim at another law passed by the Arizona legislature that bans public schools from teaching ethnic studies curriculum. Their statement advises the U.S. government to "take all measures necessary to ensure that the immigration law is in line with international human-rights standards and to devise and carry out any mechanism to control migration with due regard of the rights of people to be free from discrimination and to have access to their cultural heritage."

As noted this is a second law in Arizona that bans courses whose intent is to build barriers between persons of different ethnic origins.   It outlaws courses that promote the overthrow of the US Government.  Apparently these courses were not simply teaching heritage but were also promoting racial solidarity. 

"They also second the view of other critics of the law who contend it's an invitation to the racial profiling of detainees"

The Arizona law specifically forbids racial profiling.   As such, if law enforcement officers might be prone to racial profiling, and there has been no reported evidence that they are, this law makes it more difficult, not easier.   

"Additionally, relevant international standards require that detention be used only as an exceptional measure, justified, narrowly tailored and proportional in each individual case, and that it be subject to judicial review."

To begin, Arizona should not be concerned with international standards.  Despite this the Arizona law provides that any person detained because they are suspected of being in the country illegally are presented to federal officers in the state.  Should they need to take the person to another state, before this can happen the transit must be subjected to judicial review.  

"States are obligated to not only eradicate racial discrimination, but also to promote a social and political environment conducive to respect for ethnic and cultural diversity."

Says who?  There is no requirement for any state to promote a social and political environment conducive to respect for ethnic and cultural diversity.  It is so often said and perhaps it may look good to some on a bumper sticker but Strength in Diversity is pure hogwash.   This country is strong despite its cultural diversity.  It is strong because our ancestors found a way to eliminate the diversity and come together in a melting pot and it is this melting pot that has been the source of our strength as a nation, not the diversity.  Diversity was only the raw material.   

"On Sunday, U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder said the U.S. government is still considering that strategy — but stressed he still worries that enforcement of the law could result in racial profiling."

Eric Holder has also identified during Congressional testimony that he hasn't yet read the bill.   Odd that on Sunday he was considering a strategy for undermining a state law that he hadn't read.   This is evidence that his opposition is purely political.
