The Human Rights Commission (UNCHR) was a body of the United Nations intended to investigate and expose human rights violations. However, it ended up spending disproportionate amounts of time and money criticizing the world's most devoted defenders of human rights (including the United States) while paying hardly any attention at all to the world's greatest violators (particularly, various Communist dictatorships such as the USSR and China).
The UNCHR was created in 1946 and dissolved in 2006, when it was replaced by the equally problematic United Nations Human Rights Council.
