RE: Request for an honest and effectual UPR report on the United States by the Human Rights Council of the United Nations

To Their Excellencies, Ambassadors to the United Nations:
I, the undersigned, Joseph Zernik, a resident of the United States of America, read with great hope the news regarding the first ever, November 2010, Universal Periodic Review (UPR) of Human Rights in the United States by the Human Rights Council of the United Nations.
Based on my personal experiences and observations, I recognize the widespread corruption of the justice system in the United States, and failure of United States government to uphold its responsibilities and obligations pursuant to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
I read the staff reports of the Human Rights Council of the United Nations, and was invigorated in my hopes that the final UPR report would likewise reflect the urgent need for the United States to address the rampant violations of the Human Rights of its own people. 
I also hope that the final UPR report would call upon the United States to cooperate with observers and rapporteurs that were and would be commissioned by the United Nations, in efforts to monitor efforts and progress by the United States in addressing such violations, following the issuance of the November 2010 UPR report of the United Nations Human Rights Council.   
We, who live in the United States, suffered substantial deterioration in our Human, Civil, and Constitutional Rights, particularly in the past decade. The UPR process of the United Nations is a unique opportunity for the truth in this matter to be finally heard – loud and clear.
I believe that the UPR process could reflect the United Nations at its best, and trust that on November 5, 2010, you would vote for an honest and effectual UPR report on Human Rights in the United States of America.
Sincerely,


Joseph Zernik, PhD
