Iowahawk has dredged up the first draft of Kofi Annan's deranged US-bashing speech.

First, in today's world we are all responsible for each other's security. Against such threats as nuclear proliferation, climate change, global pandemics or terrorist accountants plotting UN audits from their safe havens in failed superpowers, no nation can make itself secure by seeking supremacy over others, and their private financial records. Only by working together can we hope to achieve lasting security for ourselves, and perhaps a nice comfortable villa in Switzerland. Let’s just say that “you scratch my back, I’ll scratch yours.”

But when we look at the murder, rape and starvation still being inflicted on the people of Darfur, we realize that our teams of fun-loving security back-scratchers can sometimes be a PR headache. That’s why we must also summon the political, economic and marketing muscle to keep ahead of the news cycle. Boys will be boys, and in the grand scheme of things, do a few rambunctious UN troops really matter when all the planet’s children are under the looming threat of climate change? I mean, what's with that? Do you people hate the planet’s children or something?

As far as I'm concerned, what a few, consenting UN members do in the privacy of their own 'illicit-gain paid for mansions' is between them and their nameless, faceless Swiss bankers. Besides, what's a few hundred million dollars between friends. It's not like all that oil money was supposed to go to the unwashed masses that make up all those dirty countries (especially when there are Lear jets to buy).

well there was a theory that the "Liberals" were
silent on Darfur.

Annan has been pretty vocal on that subject.

Talk is cheap, Anonymous Moron.

LOL

Talk = Intentions.

More of the same old liberal hypocrisy.

Simberg says : " Talk is cheap".

Funny, isnt' that what I say about your involvement in Iraq.

Talk is cheap. Sacrificing your personal blood, sweat and money,
that's hard.

And in what physical ways are you "sacrificing your personal blood, sweat and money" in supporting Al Qaeda win (which is what the policies you espouse would led to) in Iraq? When have you been to Darfur to put yourself between the killers and the innocent?
