Is it funny? I think there is some cultural difference on jokes.So i try to translate a joke which i recently saw an Weibo (a Chinese website) : There must be something wrong with the UN，recently.The Russia Authority claims,"Human rights is above the state sovereignty,while US makes a noise,who is fiercely insistent on the inviolability of the sovereignty.
