    The UN's removed Saudi Arabia from its list of child violators http://bigstory.ap.org/article/0d40f3d8028f429499fb185bb387de2a/un-takes-saudi-coalition-yemen-list-child-violators
    The UN verified a total of 1,953 children killed or injured last year by Saudi Arabia, and 101 attacks on hospitals and schools.

    But why were they removed?
    Because Saudi Arabia threatened to withhold funding from the UN.
    Shills.

    How can I take the UN seriously when Saudi Arabia, one of the world's biggest human rights violators, sits on UN's human rights panel?

      Editing … Okay, now I gotta ask, what does "shill" mean? I see it thrown around like napalm in Vietnam and I just don't get it.

      Editing … Also after reading the article it's blatantly obvious that even though there was some extortion type of shit in there, it's very well legally based and it would be ridiculous to try and stop them when their claim is legally sound. Now there will be a re-review and if they are deemed quilty, they get back on the list.
