Mugabe reads Democratic Underground?
As if to prove the UN is losing it’s grip, it gets Mugabe to address a hunger conference. Why not just put Libya on the Human Rights Commission? It gets better:
Zimbabwe President Robert Mugabe on Monday railed against U.S. President George W. Bush and British Prime Minister Tony Blair, calling them “unholy men” and “international terrorists” bent on world domination.
Mugabe departed from his text at a ceremony for the 60th anniversary of the United Nation’s Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) to accuse Bush and Blair of illegally invading Iraq and looking to unseat governments elsewhere.
“Must we allow these men, the two unholy men of our millennium, who in the same way as Hitler and Mussolini formed (an) unholy alliance … to attack an innocent country?” he said, occasionally gesticulating for emphasis.
As long as the UN gives relevancy to these sorts, it will continue to become less relevant itself.
