The member nations figured the best way to emasculate and silence the UN would be to elect an effete Korean to the bully pulpit.

Well you did try to start a fire and that in a post about UNSG Ban. You're obvioudly not practicing what you preach and when it was pointed out you're making up reasons to justify your hypocrisy. Personally, I think your mission statement is BS. You're a showboater who just wants to bring attention to himself.

Actually, I went to the Koreatimes site and found nothing but posts by some kyopo kids who are railing about exterminating "whitewonsoongi" from Itaewon or other foreign populated places. The subject matter of the other posts are the usual "japs are evil" rhetoric we see in Korea-themed websites. What article?

Have you noticed that you are sounding very illogical and shooting yourself in the foot, to say the least? Well let's just say for the sake of argument that a "Korean basher" on this blog did bring that up. Well sure there will be a "fire", but no one is going to say "Hey, that kyopo is covering that up!!" Heck I don't think anyone here will care that a kyopo didn't mention the article.

I just wanted to bring attention to this story which is a perfect bait material

If it’s “perfect bait material”, then why bring it to the attention of the bloggers and readers of this blog?

Whoever you are, I didn’t appreciate you using my comments to spew your hatred.
