What the…

Asphinctersayswhaaaa?

U.N. satellite imagery experts have determined that material that could be used to make biological or chemical weapons and banned long-range missiles has been removed from 109 sites in Iraq, U.N. weapons inspectors said in a report obtained Thursday.

U.N. inspectors have been blocked from returning to Iraq since the U.S.-led war in 2003 so they have been using satellite photos to see what happened to the sites that were subject to U.N. monitoring because their equipment had both civilian and military uses.

“Particularly because of the continued insurgency in Iraq, U.N. weapons experts are concerned about missing biological and chemical weapons,” said CBS News Foreign Affairs Analyst Pamela Falk from the U.N. “Satellite imagery has its limits and inspection experts are hoping to be able to get back into Iraq to find out if the weapons are missing or were destroyed.”

I’m sorry...is that a UN inspector/weapons expert talking about WMD?

That looks an awful lot like confirmation from the frigging UN that there were specific sites that contained WMD and they’d like to see them now.

WHERE THE FUCK WERE THESE PEOPLE TWO YEARS AGO?  When the “Bush lied people died” mantra was gaining steam, where were these experts and why didn’t they say “Hey, we have satellite coverages of some specific WMD sites where we know bad shit exists.  Wanna see?”

Fucking irresponsible cockfucking assmonkeys is what they are.  The UN is completely useless.  Worse than that, they are becoming more and more responsible for the very hardships they are supposed to prevent.  It’s corrupt from the top down and we should walk away from it and throw them off US soil.

AP: Oil-For-Food Investigators Resign

If there is a single human being reading this who is surprised that the UN would gloss over the Food-For-Oil investigation , do me a favor.  Kill yourself.  You’re not smart enough to remember to breathe.  ;)

Two senior investigators with the committee probing corruption in the U.N. oil-for-food program have resigned in protest, saying they believe a report that cleared Kofi Annan of meddling in the $64 billion operation was too soft on the secretary-general, a panel member confirmed Wednesday.

The investigators felt the Independent Inquiry Committee, led by former U.S. Federal Reserve chairman Paul Volcker, played down findings critical of Annan when it released an interim report in late March related to his son, said Mark Pieth, one of three leaders of the committee.

“You follow a trail and you want to see people pick it up,” Pieth told The Associated Press, referring to the two top investigators who left. The committee “told the story” that the investigators presented, “but we made different conclusions than they would have.”

I’ll bet you did...different like “Glorious Leader Kofi is blameless?”

Funny...when some private acting on his own need to humiliate others does something that crosses the line...Bush, as leader, is said to be personally responsible.  Those same people, when faced with the corrupt immorality of the UN, stealing from, raping, even murdering those they are sworn to pritect...those same people who blame Bush for the actions of someone far removed from him will say Kofi’s not responsible.  Even though his ties to the thieves are so close as to be BLOOD RELATED.  If nothing else...Kofi Anan is incompetent.  And yet the people who call daily for Bush’s head don’t seem to give a shit, and more kids get raped, more money gets stolen, more civilians murdered by UN thuggery.

That, my friends, is illogical, and furthermore we have a word for that particular type of illogic...it’s called “hypocrisy.”

“We reproached the secretary-general that he was satisfied with his top guys, who told him after 24 hours that everything was fine,” he added, referring to the internal probe of Kofi Annan. “It’s not a good thing to have these guys who only say what you want to hear.”

If only everyone in positions of power understood this.  From theconvenience store manager to the President, people who get a little power love to surround themselves with yes men.

Hat tip: Ace.
