Note
In this statement on human rights questions to the Third Committee of the General Assembly, the representative of Pakistan argues against naming human rights abusers. She criticizes the "lopsided focus on civil and political rights," and the "selectivity, politicization and double standards." Rather than having the Special Rapporteur on extra-judicial, summary and arbitrary executions focus on "sensitive theological jurisprudence regarding selective religions" she would rather have them focus on "the extra-territorial nature of these killings in situations of foreign occupation." Translation: focus on Israel instead of Muslim states.
