UNITED NATIONS – Less than 48 hours after WND reported that under the Obama administration the website for the United States mission to the United Nations had been scrubbed of its flag emblem and archives, those apparently have been restored.
The new site had brought howls and criticisms from previous US/UN officials.
"I think the loss of the American flag (from the home page) is a very telling symbol, that they still have the U.N. seal up there. They had that flag up there when I arrived (as ambassador). It was there when I got there and to replace it with the U.N. seal I think is more symbolic perhaps than the Obama administration realizes. It says a lot to the American public what their priorities are," former Ambassador John Bolton said.
But the website today exhibited a new – albeit tiny – flag logo in the top left part of the page:
Updated website, with new U.S. flag

But the new and "improved" site was missing some important and traditional features.

So Odinga is celebrating Ramadan, eh?
Gee, who would have figured out Odinga's connection to Islam?
OTOH, this is almost a catch-22 situation wrt the way I look at it....Would love to have the flag removed IFF all U.S. funding and property was removed as well!
Everything about this disgusting, America-hating administration is a lie.
Everything.
Taking down the American flag and raising the flag of communist China symbolizes the entire philosophy of our president; it demonstrates his patriotism (lack of), foreign policy, economic policy and perspective of the Constitution and rule of law.
