Mark Malloch Brown, United Nations deputy secretary on July 31, 2006:
"What is troubling to me is the US and UK now carry with them a particular set of baggage in the Middle East. The challenge for them is to recognise that ultimately they have to allow others to share the lead in this effort diplomatically and (in putting together) a stabilisation force."
"It’s not helpful for it again to appear to be the team that led on Iraq or even on Afghanistan. It’s not helpful to couch this war in the language of international terrorism. Hizbollah employs terrorist tactics, it is an organisation however whose roots historically are completely separate and different from Al Qaeda."
"It draws on a strong political well of support in southern Lebanon and after the events of the last few weeks more deeply, and until that is addressed you are not going to stop it."
What would it take to get rid of these UN imbeciles?

Isn't this the a$shole who attacked Fox News and Rush ?
Thanks for posting this. The entire interview's infuriating.
Al Qaeda didn't invent terrorism. These people are so stupid, it should be outlawed.
Yes it is. He's just spouting the DNC talking points.
On the future of Hizbollah: "Everybody would want a solution here which takes away the recruiting power of Hizbollah in the broader Arab world."
"That is one which addresses the territorial issue of the Sheba farms, which in a broader way addresses Lebanon’s sovereignty and integrity in a way that allows Hizbollah a political as against a militia future inside an independent Lebanon."
"If those issues can be addressed, then the support for a militarised Hizbollah falls away. But the idea that there is a peace which either Hizbollah would respect, or which would draw the wind out of Hizbollah’s sails which doesn’t address those political things is I think far-fetched."
"Over time there’s got to be a similar future as there have been for other terrorist fighters; a settlement which addresses the political issues of their cause as well as the military ones. Which secures disarmament and reintegration into a non violent political process."
"Hizbollah now is the principle voice of Shia Muslims in Lebanon – something like 40 per cent of the population – that gives them immense power as a political party if they were to forsake the military route."
Appoint Bolton for starters.
is this the guy who called us stingy? the UN is more than worthless: it is dangerous, protecting our enemies and legitimizing their actions. we should get out of the UN and start an organization that is truly interested in freedom and peace.
past asshat comments by Brown:
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1646073/posts
"Much of the public discourse that reaches the U.S. heartland has been largely abandoned to its loudest detractors such as Rush Limbaugh and Fox News,"
"the prevailing [US] practice of seeking to use the UN almost by stealth as a diplomatic tool while failing to stand up for it against its domestic critics is simply not sustainable. You will lose the UN one way or another."
Washington, he said, was too happy to tolerate "too much unchecked UN-bashing and stereotyping".
"You [the US] have to engage to help make this institution a better institution. And you need to engage, if I dare say so, with your own public opinion to explain better why the UN matters to American interests."
"The UN's role is in effect a secret in middle America even as it is highlighted in the Middle East and other parts of the world,"
I thought the name familiar.
Thanks.
Looking forward to hearing Rush on this today.
BTW, Sheba farms was SYRIAN territory CAPTURED by Israel in the 6 Day War.
It aint Lebanese territory. But the UN putzes insist Israel continue to chop off its limbs to satisfy the Islamofascists who in the words of Alan Dershowitz would still want israel detroyed if it was the "size of a postage stamp".
Lord Halifax felt the same way about Goebbels and Ribbentrop... until they made him and Chamberlain fools on the world stage. Their 'foolishness' would later be paid in the lives of countless millions.
We should do an email campaign to the un and demand this jerk resign or do not give a penny to the un untill this guys is treated the way he feels about the usa. If he is in a new york rest he should be shunned. How much are they getting from Iran now. It looks to me that this is the USA,ENGLAND AND THE JEWS AGAINST THE WORLD.But if this guy hates us so much ,no money!
He's a real scold.
Into this
to Malloch Brown
Hezbollah's spokesperson Hassan Ezzedin on Shebbaa farms: "If they go from Sheba'a, we will not stop fighting them. Our goal is to liberate the 1948 borders of Palestine...[Jews] can go back to Germany or wherever they came from.” New Yorker, (October 14, 2002).
Yeah, Israel should negotiate with that.
It is the same man who lives in a Soros dig in New York and pays a minimal rent. It is incredible how the self-hating Jew Soros supports the anti-Semite Mark Malloch Brown. It's a pairing made in Hell.
If you intentionally target innocent civilians with your rockets and bombs, you are a terrorist. If you wear civilian clothes, shoot at your enemy, and then hide behind mom and the kids at the dinner table, you are a terrorist. If you use ambulances to move your men and arms around town, you are a terrorist. If you shoot and try to draw return fire into civilian areas, you are a terrorist. It’s not all that difficult to understand.
