"Oil for Food", "Raping children in the Congo", "Ruud Rubbers", and Rebecca Peters lobbying to take away our guns via a UN treaty. It all adds up now. The UN wants our guns so that they can steal our money and rape our children. I can't find a link to the Congo story yet, only video. These people have the audacity to condemn our troops for putting underwear on POW's heads while their troops AND diplomats are raping 12 year old girls in Africa???????! From my cold dead hands you ask? Yes, Mr. Heston, from my cold dead hands. Dear God help us.

They are a sick, hypocritical lot indeed. I'm hoping that this Lubbers character turns on kofi and spills the beans about what he knows. Apparently, he's upset with kofi so who knows what we might learn in the near future.

If you had copied in the original title instead of fabricating your own, you would not have had the problem.

I despise the UN and everything it stands for. I deeply resent the UN for demanding taxpayer money from Americans for any purpose whatsoever. I want the UN GONE, yesterday!

It helps in searching, you know...

Since at least one of his accusers is a US citizen and the report delivered to Coffee A-No-Nothing said not only was the accusation true but there was a pattern of such behaior the Fox story left unanswered some key questions.

Did he give up his Diplomatic Passport?
Was he Immediately arrested for Sexual Assualt by the NYPD?
Has State put him on criminal hold as a flight risk?
When's his arraignment in NY?

or are they just going to let him get away with it?

The answers are, of course, no. The worst thing that ever happens to these bile ridden creatures is that they lose their job. Unlike US troops, they never subject themselves to local laws. You see, they are above the rest of us.

I truly would like to see his face slather all over the world a Level Sexual Predator with all the incumbent limitations of movement and housing slapped on him. Will it happen? No but it sure would be nice. I'd even be happy if State declared him one and forbade him ever to enter the US, a US Embassy/Consulate/Military installation again.

Ruud Lubbers has a long career in public service in the Netherlands and elsewhere.

I believe they meant to say, "Ruud Lubbers has a long career in public servicing in the Netherlands and elsewhere."
