the u.n. sucks

article - the observer | international | "how many more must die before kofi quits?"

the u.n. sucks! the article puts it pretty clearly too. ironically this article is all about consistency also (like my previous post). the point of this article is that the u.n under kofi's leadership has betrayed the very ideals that "the left" has stood for both in the u.s. and the u.k. yet "the left" has supported the u.n. against "the conservatives" because they view being against the conservatives as their primary role. they abandon their ideals because of politics and needing to be different from "the right."

it would be nice if we could consistently support freedom in the world (even if it is proposed by the u.n.) and consistently fight evil in the world (even if it is in the u.n.).
