The same Country that heads a UN Human Rights Panel is about to Crucify a Teenage Boy [1]

If there's ever any doubt the world is run by psychopaths, this fact should clear that up: Saudi Arabia, the country who was just now selected to lead a key Human Rights panel for the UN [2], is also about to crucify a teenage boy [3]. From Mic.com:

A Saudi teenager is facing death by crucifixion in his home country of Saudi Arabia on charges activists say are politically motivated. 

In 2012, Ali Mohammed al-Nimr, then 17, was arrested in the country's Qatif province on reportedly shaky charges of illegal protesting and gun possession, the International Business Times [4] reported Wednesday. There was never any evidence to support the guns charge.

After being arrested, al-Nimr was held in jail and not allowed to speak to a lawyer. According to the British legal aid group Reprieve [5], al-Nimr was subject to torture to extract a forced confession. A closed appeals process — which he was not invited to and occurred without his knowledge — dismissed any remaining possibility that the nation's legal system would prevent his biblical execution.
