UN-believable

[Liberty Lover]

Great news to hear that the UN has appointed Libya as the Chair of their Human Rights Committee. Libya, for God's sake!

Libya: a police state ruled by a mad dictator who hates Israel and has a passion for acquiring his own weapons of mass destruction. Where torture and Govt-sponsored murder are routine. Where women have those good old-fashion (and boy we do mean OLD-fashioned) Muslim human rights. And where the Govt maintains a close relationship - including providing training camps - with terrorist groups.

So welcome, Libya, to the Chairmanship - a perfect exemplar of the role of morality, justice, freedom and common sense play in the contemporary United Nations Organisation.

so what the dictator in Libya hates Israel, thats just good.

[Old Friend]

Guess whose in charge of their commission for disarmament?

[Liberty Lover]

LOL.

But hey... Me thinks that the Iraqi's i'll know all about that pretty soon.

[Old Friend]

Answer: Iraq (http://www.cnn.com/2003/WORLD/meast/01/28/sprj.irq.disarmament.conference/)

I suppose the tortured mind of a leftist would also consider that to be a "good thing".

It just begs the question, why are we still dealing with these nincompoops?

Peace in Middle Earth in our time


MINAS TIRITH (Gondor News Network) - Thousands of peace activists took to the streets of Minas Tirith and other cities of Middle Earth today to protest what they termed a rush to war with Mordor.

“We need more time for diplomacy,” said a key member of the Middle-Earth Security Council, Saruman the White. “I am not convinced by the evidence presented by my esteemed colleague, Gandalf the Grey, or that the Dark Lord Sauron presents an imminent danger to the peoples of the West.”

Many of the people protesting war in Mordor agreed with Saruman’s remarks. “Sauron says he’s destroyed his Rings of Mass Destruction (RMD) and that’s good enough for me,” said one fellow carrying a sign that said “Elrond is a Balrog.” Another demonstrator urged, “Give the RMD inspectors more time. There’s no reason to rush to any judgment just because Mount Doom is belching lava, the Dark Tower is rebuilt, and Osgiliath has been decimated.” A third protester piped up, “I haven’t heard a single bit of convincing evidence connecting the Nazgul with Sauron. I think they destroyed Osgiliath on their own initiative without any support from Sauron. Besides, it’s understandable they’re angry with Gondor. We haven’t done nearly as much for the Orcs and Goblins and Easterlings as the Nazgul and Sauron have. It’s understandable they throw their support to them. It’s our own fault really.”

As the protesters continued their march through the city, they chanted, “No blood for Mount Doom,” voicing a common sentiment that the leaders of the Western peoples are really seeking to get their hands on the powerful Mount Doom, where the One Ring of Power was allegedly forged.

Gandalf the Grey was unavailable for comment. A spokesman said he was in an undisclosed underground location, which sources have revealed is codenamed: Moria.

If Libya is in charge of Human rights, it will bring the world spotlight towards them and force them to strengthen their human rights issues.

[The Sniper]

Hmm no i dont think i argee with Libya being in the UN (which i didnt even think they where)let alone being chair of some Human Rights Board. But then again If the UN voted such an odd choice for the chair then there must be some reason behind it or it would be making fornt page news with the right wing facist press England seems populated with. My guess is its not as clear cut as it sounds however you right wingers might like to present it.

Oh btw very funny link with LoTRs there Liberty just swap Sauron with George Bush and Saruman with Tony Blair and then it would work better.

[CruelVerdad]

Well, the UN has always done whatever they want to....
Everything is possible with them..!

That is completely unrelated.

[Palmares]

The UN is bullshit. It is what Hitler envisioned, a world government.

It should be named the United Nations of America.

The UN holds no real sway without the US.

[Sol]

Mordor = Iraq? So right wingers really are this delusional?? That explains a lot.

[Liberty Lover]

"That is completely unrelated."

Yeah sorry...I hit post reply instead of new topic

[Smoking Frog II]

I heard from someone that Mordor represents France.

I don't think it's true though. oh, and by thge way;

www.chairmanmoo.com

is a fine site.

[Uhuru na Umoja]

Mordor is France in the book or article?

If your referring to the book, Tolkien strongly resisted any claims that The Lord of the Rings was alegorical. He very vehemently refuted claims that Mordor was France, Nazi Germany, or any other nation.
