U.N. Lowers Flag for Kim Jong Il

Human rights group U.N. Watch sends out this photo of the U.N. Human Rights Council in Geneva flying its flag at half mast for the funeral of dead North Korean dictator Kim Jong Il:



U.N. Watch says other U.N. buildings are honoring Kim Jong Il in this manner, too.

Hillel Neuer, the executive director of the group, blasted the U.N. “We understand that the UN follows diplomatic protocol, but the world body must not forget that its founding purpose is to defend basic human rights, and sadly that message is at serious risk of being blurred today,” Neuer said in a statement. "Today should be a time for the UN to show solidarity with the victims -- the millions of North Koreans brutalized by Kim's merciless policies of starvation, torture and oppression -- and not with the perpetrator."

Yeah, as if we needed another reason to despise the Unneaded Nuisance. Let's ditch that den of communists before they drag this country any further down the road to global socialism/serfdom where they, of course, become the Ultimate Necessity.

Remember "TRICK OR TREAT FOR UNICEF" ????

They said it was for Humanitarian Purposes but the monies collected went to provide Food and First Aid supplies for the Terrorists fighting against Rhodesia from 1965-80 and Viet Cong during 1965-75.....

Also the UN was responsible for most of the bloodshed in the Congo during the 1960's....

I'm wondering if O'bummer had the US capitol building do the same. Wouldn't surprise me in the least. We should have pulled our funding out of the UN long ago.

you have to remember they have to pander to the whole world(not just the states we like)..governments and leaders of many nations..they have to appease a-lot, me thinks

I imagine world leaders having brat fits all the time
power games..pissing contests..etc...
