UN okay with gay executions?
Quote:
The UN has a remarkable track record of doing virtually nothing when presented with mass killings or genocide. "Never again!" was the cry after the holocaust. Since then, the world has witnessed a dozen more never agains with strong condemnation from the UN coming after the corpses pile up. A resolution of the sort that was voted on in the General Assembly is significant for its clarity of message: "It's okay to kill the gays."

What are the politics behind this? While I understand that there are many nations that are perpetual human rights violators, I don't understand why the greater powers don't stand up.
What am I missing?
