Well, They've Done 'Something'

Thursday, 12 June 2008

Just to reassure Gary that the UN is in fact taking action.  Iain Murray over at the Corner notes:

Latest from the U.N. Human Rights Commission

What's the biggest human rights issue in the world?  The establishment of a military junta in Zimbabwe?  The callous indifference of the Burmese government to the suffering of their people after the cyclone?  The tyranny in Uzbekistan?  Of course not.  In a move that will gladden Lyndon LaRouche's heart, they have decided that the British monarchy and unwritten constitution need to be challenged.

All the United Nations does is legitimise the agendas of tyrants and provide cover for policies of  inaction from politicians in liberal democracies.  Why do anything, when you can talk about it?
