How many scores of times has Israel been condemned in a UN resolution and this is the first one for North Korea?!? Yet another example of the uselessness of the UN.

“what Sonagi said should….”

And on Sonagi’s point.

Periodically, I’ll go back and kick myself in the rear, hard, for being so stupid for so long when it came to thinking about the UN.

What Sonagi should have been painfully obvious the whole time.

When the majority of the nations in a “democratic” org are anti-democratic or dehabilitatingly corrupt, who but an idiot would believe the org would be anything except like its members?

But, I was that idiot for many years….

Meet some of the members of the UN Human Rights Commission:

China, Congo, Cuba, Egypt, Guatemala, Indonesia, Nigeria, Pakistan, Peru, Russian Federation, Saudi Arabia, Sudan

It’s like putting gang members and drug dealers on neighborhood crime watch patrol.

After letting it sink in for a day.

The fact 50% of the United Nations body could not find a way to vote for an impotent resolution to condemn human rights violations in a nation like North Korea has once and for all killed any esteem and hope I had for the United Nations as defined by what people like to say it stands for and its mission statement.

Dongfang hong, Baduk. Fortunately for you and your people, Chinese language institutes are springing up all over Korea. Don’t worry - you won’t have to kowtow. Modern Chinese shake hands or say “hello” while doing this windshield wiper hand wave.

I’m glad I don’t live in a country that uses torture or runs top secret prison camps. I live in the USA!

China voted against the resolution. The US, I am sure, were for it. Korea had to choose.

Korea would have voted for it with full enthusiasm under Kim YoungSam’s administration. Korea would have done the same under Kim DaeJoong’s administration.

Now, we have Rho. Rho wants to take the country away from the US influence and single-handedly bring the country under Chinese influence. Yesterday, Hu Jintao addressed Korean Assembly and you should have seen Secretary of State Lee grovel.

These student radicals want to take Korea over to China. They think this is the way for Korean unification and peace in the peninsula.

They are wrong! China will use Koreans to fight its war against Japan. Historically, Korea belonged to China before 20th century. Then it got eaten up by Japan. Now, these brilliant Lincolns and Votaires are going to sell the country back to China.

We will see how this people fare under Chinese influence. China can be a very harsh master. Just look at NK.(and Mongolia and VietNam).

What Roh is trying to do is gain a prefered relation with Asia’s future supply of DDD workers and sweatshop employees. If anyone thinks there’s any other reason they keep pandering to the people they rather see nuked, they’re kidding themselves.
