UN is nowhere to be seen -- unless you count at meetings, in five-star hotels, and holding press conferences.

I'm glad to see that the Dutch can still think, what with all the legal drugs over there. I am still very concerned with my brethren who stayed there though and hope they don't get totally run over by the heathen.

I'm liking it that Diplomad is getting exposure via FR. Wicked funny.

Can't wait for more insider reports to come out....like, what they dined on (extravagant) while others starve....stuff like that.

The UN is full of greedy, evil hypocrites. I want as many to know that as possible.

Thanks for posting this. It is encouraging to read that a "can do" attitude still counts for something.

Does this mean we can stop whipping ourselves for being stingy and for having re-elected a President who takes too long to speak publicly about a disaster?

"...the city's Embassies got a letter from the local UN representative requesting a meeting for Ms. Margareeta Wahlstrom..."

The UN only wants these meetings so they can find out what the non-UN effort is doing, then they'll turn around and take credit for it! The US/Aussie/Indian/Japanese group needs to issue it's own releases or tell the UNcredibles to pound sand. Let the UN mouthpieces twist in the wind.

Here is the link to the "previous post" mentioned in the article: UNsanity Update

I didn't find a FR thread on that article. It sounds like The Diplomad is one together dude and has a site worth bookmarking!

I still don't understand why the President disbanded the coalition and turned it's control over to the UN.....unless he felt he made his point.

Well, let's see the aussieyanks set it all up, got it rolling, saving thousands of lives and the UN comes sniffling around and wants everybody to wear the "powder-puff hat of uselessness".... just so the UN can get credit for stuff IT did NOT do to help the victims.

OH, YUK! I hate the UN, I really and honestly do. I just hate them!!
