But, it's for the children....so, it's ok

What? Did you really expect better of the UN?

The better question is why they didn't partner with this organization sooner. /dripping sarcasm

How long is it going to take for us the boot the U.N. out of our country? I'm sure Riyadh would love to have them

UN's Border Specialist from Mexico Cancels visit to inspect Virginia, USA's practices.

Mexicans Without Borders staffers HOPE to reschedule "inspections"

A United Nations official investigating Prince William County's illegal immigration crackdown abruptly postponed his high-profile trip to the community late Monday night, upsetting a slate of seven events set for today and tomorrow.

"I write to you with much regret for having to postpone the trip to Washington that I had promised you," said Jorge Bustamante, U.N. special rapporteur for the human rights of migrants.

Bustamante did not specify why the meeting was cancelled in a letter to local immigrant leader Ricardo Juarez of Mexicans Without Borders, calling it only, "something unexpected of extreme gravity."

Mexicans Without Borders coordinators would not elaborate on the reasons for the cancellation and hoped Bustamante would return at a later date.

Oh, you meant a terrorist group besides the U.N.

IIROSA Secretary-General Dr. Adnan Khalil Basha and UNICEF's Gulf Area Representative Dr. Ayman Abu Laban signed the deal.

Dr. Ayman Abu Laban. That about sums it up.

Its for the children.

Simple fix you take a red marker and put it thru their name off the list they come see its easy.

Just after we rejoined UNICEF! After many years without US participation.

So a UN organization is partnering with a group designated by the UN as a terrorist organization?

re: #45 Ben Hur

A very bad option of only very bad options left considering that Iran is going to go nuclear soon enough. He's figuring that the threat the Saudis have nukes might dissuade the Iranians - or use it as a pawn to get the Iranians to give up their nukes. Putting a chip on the table to lure the Iranians into making a concession even if the US has no interest in seeing nukes in Saudi hands either.

Funny video about a guy who totally loses it at the office.

[Link: www.youtube.com...]

I think that the next international organization the US tries should have a few ground rules. One of the biggest being that that all energy companies and other such procurers of valuable mineral resources all be privately-owned companies. If it weren't for the need for cheap oil and the lack of separation between government and energy company in far too many places, the Arabs would have been told to STFD and STFU a long, long, long time ago.

Saudi and the other Muslim countries with oil tie oil exploration contracts and the like to favorable UN votes. They can achieve this because the energy companies they deal with are in far too many cases organs of the same government who tells its UN ambassadors how to vote.

I used to think that maybe UNICEF was the exception to the rule when it came to UN agencies. But, they are a bloated, inefficient and politicized bureaucracy just like every other agency in that "organization". It is liberalism incarnate though -------> conceived with good intentions, but rife with rules, heavy with staff and red tape with loads of political correctness and moral equivalences tossed in to insure they will not accomplish the actual reason they are in existence in the first place....The UN achieves all that AND justifies and legitimatizes tin pot dictators, despots, and tyrants as an added bonus! Meanwhile, here in the real world, we wring our hands and wonder why we send the UN one penny let alone the billions we have already sent down that rat hole.

Hizbullah chief assassinated after warning Syria's Assad of coup plot

LONDON — Syrian President Bashar Assad reportedly blocked a coup planned by his brother-in-law who has disappeared from public view.

The German daily Die Welt reported that Assad foiled a coup by his brother-in-law, Assaf Chawkat, in February 2008. The newspaper said Chawkat, then Syrian intelligence chief, attempted to overthrow Assad in cooperation with the opposition Muslim Brotherhood and Al Qaida.

Assad was said to have been informed of the coup plans by Hizbullah operational chief Imad Mughniyeh. Days later, the newspaper said, Mughniyeh was assassinated by Chawkat's agents in Damascus.

Really, we should have seized the relatively unpopulated, oil reach northeast corner of saudi arabia, instead of Iraq.
And opened the spigots wide. It would have made perfect sense, given that most of the 911 crew were saudis, and bankrolled by the Kingdom.

Iran would have dropped what it was doing pretty quickly, and Saddam would have fallen into line.

Instead, President Dances-With-Saudis went thru all sorts of convolutions to clear Saudi Arabia and Islam, and went after a secular bad guy innocent of 911, who was well contained, though incredibly annoying. The was was fought, to add insult to our injury, to protect Saudi Arabia, and in a manner least offensive to Saudi Arabia, EVEN AS THE STINKING SAUDS offloaded their disgruntled youth and paid for them to go to Iraq to kill us!

So, here we sit, pumping a billion dollars a day into Iraq while their coffers swell with oil receipts, and they (and the Sauds, for whom the war was fought) moon us.

re: #109 Lyana

In Canada -- prior to 2006 -- schools would give out (on behalf of UNICEF) Halloween collection boxes at elementary schools. so kids would collect pennies/nickels and dimes for UNICEF. (Here in Canada it was collection boxes, little orange boxes -- not bags). UNICEF stopped doing this (that is, handing out the boxes to the schools and having the kids collect money on Halloween night) in 2006. I believe UNICEF said it was not "cost effective." (When kids came to my door prior to 2006, and asked for money for UNICEF -- I said, "No" and I didn't give them money -- I handed them candies. Saying that UNICEF collects monies for questionable "causes" is probably appropriate -- hmmm...saying that I don't give money to UNICEF because, in principle, I'm opposed to supporting terrorists, is meant to be a joke... an over-the-top joke...ditto about the JW (that's the bogus Jehovah Witness "explanation" -- I'm not a JW -- but it did seem to satisfy kids as an "explanation" for my not handing out money for UNICEF...) (btw, I did find it very, very troubling that UN organizations would use children like this -- and I really didn't have the time, effort or desire to attempt to "explain" my real reasons for refusing to give a monetary donation to UNICEF on Halloween...and the children were obviously disappointed...)
