Thanks Pokey! This is another good one by Mark. I love all his references to the pompous Norwegian.

Thanks Poke mon. Steyn has vision. Genius, imo.

IMO, Mark Steyn should be protected in a germ-free bubble and have his own personal taster.

God Bless him and keep him safe.

For the purposes of comparison, the UN has far more cash swilling about, and its global network predates Dell’s by half a century; yet, when the tsunami hit, it took not four days but four weeks for its staff to establish a presence at Banda Aceh. Dell’s ‘coalition’ is pretty eclectic — capitalist, Eurostatist, Chinese Communist, Chinese Nationalist, Latin, Anglophone, Jewish, Muslim — yet it functions harmoniously. Meanwhile, all that that pompous Norwegian who heads up the UN humanitarian bureaucracy could do was give press conferences in New York hectoring the developed world for its ‘stinginess’, so every Western government promptly dipped into its taxpayers’ pockets and threw more money at the pompous Norwegian than he can ever usefully spend, and the only result will be that, when the next tsunami hits, it’ll take ’em even longer to get to the scene, but the pompous Norwegian will be able to give even more hectoring press conferences, perhaps with lavish visual aids.

BIG BUMP! A Steyn Grand Slam.

Would that the Senate Democrats would get it and stop worshipping the decrepit UN.

Bump for later reading; thanks for the ping, Pokey! (Two in two days; I'm feeling blessed!)

Not all Dutchmen or Belgians will wish to follow their compatriots down the Eurinal of history.

I have quoted this man so often, I should be paying him royalties. Thanks, Pokey!

I've already bought the books....

the Eurinal of history

That phrase alone is worth the read!
