HOUSTON  --  A United Nations High Court has issued an order demanding the United States halt the executions of five Mexican citizens on Texas' death row.

One of them is scheduled to be put to death in three weeks.  Jose Medellin was convicted in the gang murders of teenagers Jennifer Ertman and Elizabeth Pena, more than 15 years ago in Houston.

Victims' advocates acknowledge the World Court's bias against capital punishment, but they say the brutality of his crime makes Medellin a poor poster child for the cause.

The U.N. court agreed with arguments that Medellin and the other four Texas death row inmates did not have adequate access to the Consulate of their home country.

But, as a practical matter, there's little the international court can do to enforce its order.

I hate the United Nations!!! I have seen what they do first hand. I was in Iraq protecting the WMD inspectors who United Nations send there after the Gulf War.

In East Timor the East Timorese people told the U.N. that they did not want Muslims in their country. They were under Indonesaion rule. Indonesia is the largest Islamic nation.

The "Peace Keeper" from Pakistan were raping and sexually abusing women and children. I served in East Timor in 2000 with INTERFET (International Forces in East Timor) when Australia led the multi national force. There was non of the abuse that the Paki's did.

The U.N. did nothing to stop the abuse. I say lets kick the unUnited Nations out of the USA for good!!!!
