General Assembly. And today, Barrack Azid Hussein, who was Ohmshidi’s observer to the United Nations (he did not merit the title “Ambassador”), had to listen as country after country condemned AIRE for its human rights violations.
    â€œChristian worshipers slaughtered, a young boy’s arm crushed under the wheel of a car—and these are not isolated incidents, but are the policy of the government in Washington.”
    â€œA point of order, Ambassador, the name of the city is Muslimabad,” Hussein said.
    Hussein was gaveled by the Secretary General.
    â€œThe gentleman is not recognized, and will not interrupt again.”
    The ambassador from England continued. “It is, indeed, a sad commentary on the times, when the country that was once looked up to by the rest of the world, the country of tolerance, the country of good will, the country who held up a light of liberty for the rest of the world, has now become a pariah among nations. I weep for the hundreds of thousands of young Americans who, throughout the history of that once, great nation, gave their lives for the peace of the world. Great Britain supports the resolution condemning the—so called—American Islamic Republic of Enlightenment.”
    Hamid Karim Rahman, ambassador from Pakistan, defended the American Islamic Republic.
    â€œFor many years, the United States of America conducted war against Islam, and, with bribes, encouraged Muslim to fight Muslim. Now, they are no longer a threat to peace in the Middle East. Pakistan, and the fifty-five other Muslim nations who are members of the United Nations, protest this proposed resolution, and join with the Organization of Islamic Cooperation in praising AIRE for its awakening. We are proud to say that the American Islamic Republic of Enlightenment is a valued member of the OIC.”
    Despite the protest of all fifty-six Muslim members of the United Nations, the resolution of condemnation for violation of human rights passed, and a formal censure was issued.

    Resolution 3817 is hereby issued by the United Nations in assembly in Geneva, Switzerland:
    1. Expressing grave concern at the deteriorating situation, the escalation of violence, and the disregard of human life by the entity identifying itself as the American Islamic Republic of Enlightenment, formerly the United States of America.
    2. Reiterating the responsibility of the AIRE authorities to protect their people and reaffirming that armed representatives of the government bear the primary responsibility to take all feasible steps to ensure the protection of its citizens.
    3. Condemning the gross and systematic violation of human rights, including arbitrary detentions, torture, and summary executions.
    4. Further condemning acts of violence and intimidation committed by the authorities against independent journalists, media professionals, and associated personnel, and urging these authorities to comply with their obligations under international humanitarian law as outlined in previous resolutions issued by this body.
    5. Warning the authorities of the American Islamic Republic of Enlightenment (formerly the United States of America), that continued crimes against the civilian population may amount to crimes against humanity.

    This resolution of condemnation was the first ever passed against the United States, though the resolution itself was quick to point out that the AIRE was no longer the U.S.A.
    Nevertheless, news of the resolution appeared in newspapers and on radio and television around the world. The irony was that all the Western nations that used to be the allies of the U.S., such as Canada, Great Britain, France, Germany, Spain, Israel, and Japan, were in support of the resolution. So too were Russia and China.
    Those nations that once condemned the United States were quick to issue statements of support for the American Islamic Republic of Enlightenment. In fact, the fifty-six member nations of the
