Blaming the US and our President for his own greed and complacency, Annan warned, hypocritically, I might add, that &#8220;The Security Council is not just another stage on which to act out national interests&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>I guess it&#8217;s the stage where we act out our personal interests, instead. Like Security Council members who were paid off to protect Hussein&#8217;s regime from the inevitable.\u00c2\u00a0When a great, lumbering oaf like the UN under Annan has refuses to act\u00c2\u00a0as they&#8217;ve refused to act against Hezbollah, as they&#8217;ve refused to act in support of the refugees of Darfor, as they refused to act to save Rwandans, as they&#8217;ve refused to act to wrestle Somalia from the al-Quada warlords, as they let Bosnians and Kosovars languish under their respective oppressors.<\/p>\n<p>I think it&#8217;s just a little bit strange that Annan relied on the United States, soley, to bring peace to the world in his early years, in Haiti, Bosnia, Kosovo, Somalia, East Timor, etc.\u00c2\u00a0while the rest of the world joyfully tagged along with just enough support to call it a UN mission, but when a real threat has raised up,\u00c2\u00a0and huge amounts of cash was exchanged, the UN\u00c2\u00a0suddenly draws up in the fetal position and then criticizes the US for acting with a cobbled-together coalition.<\/p>\n<p>Shame on you, Kofi.
