In Case You Hadn't Already Realized (33 out of 192 UN countries walked out on Ahamadinejad's speech)
American Thinker ^ | 09/25/2010 | Richard N. Weltz

Posted on 09/25/2010 10:55:28 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

When Iran's Ahmadinejad started throwing out crazy accusations from the UN General Assembly's podium, claiming that the United States government had organized the September 11 attacks, members of the US delegation stood up and walked out.

So also did the delegations of what the NY Times pegs at about 33 nations. That's thirty-three countries whose leaders refused to listed to the anti-American ravings of the Iranian lunatic. Nice. You could probably name all thirty-three countries pretty close to correctly just off the back of your hand.

But, wait. There are 192 member nations of the UN -- every one of whose delegations sat and listened except for the approximately 33 who stood by us (and the Israelis, who were absent due to the Jewish holiday of Succos).

Any wonder why the UN is so reliably ready to stand against us and to condemn Israel with monotonous regularity? The real wonder is why we stay in that nefarious organization and why we host it in our most prominent city.

Shocker! I would have thought Obama’s appointed delegates would have applauded.

Good call on Mexico. Not surprising about Russia.

Mexico stayed around, in effect siding with the Iranians. I hope the members of Congress who applauded the president of Mexico as he abused our hospitality and attacked the people of Arizona in the Capitol, have taken note. Bit by bit, Mexico is becoming a defacto enemy of the USA, with its government actually facilitating and encouraging the violation of our borders by people traffickers, dope smugglers, and mobs of law-breaking illegals.

Well only because you don´t walk out does not necessarily mean that you agree with this speech. but of course it would haven been a nice gesture if they had walked out too.

Bravo to Costa Rica. And I take it that Israel wasn’t there to begin with, so never had the option of walking out.

Hell no. In fact, 33 more Mexicans came in as soon as those 33 left.


Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

The UN had a time and place but it no longer exists. That is why having real leaders like George W. Bush is important. We can no longer depend on the rest of the world to do the right thing at the right time.
