Kofi Annan the UN Chief Is Immoral
April 24, 2003
At a Humans Rights Commission meeting in Geneva, U.N. Chief Kofi Annan
reminded the United States to follow the Geneva Conventions regarding
civilians and public order. The gall. It's like the United States has done
nothing so far to help any civilian or keep public order!
This underscores his immorality and here is why:
- He openly supported the regime of Saddam Hussein along with France,
Germany, Russia and China.
- He did nothing to effectively end the torture and disorder Hussein
created in his country and others.
- He ignored human rights abuses evidenced by reports of torture, murder
and rape in Iraq.
- He knew and at least passively supported the diversion of Iraqi oil to
buy weapons instead of food and medicine. Many civilians, especially
babies and children died.
- He forgets about the United State's politically correct approach to
the war that avoided civilians and undoubtedly saved thousands of lives.
- He conveniently forgets that Iraqi citizens recently suffered looting
at their own hands. Somehow he doesn't believe that Iraq must accept
responsibility for crimes by its citizens.
- He ignores Coalition efforts to provide food, medicine, water and
other supplies and repeatedly warns the United States that food and aid
are needed.
Annan believes he is on "high moral ground" and lets everyone know it by
chastising the US for its efforts in Iraq. He "plays to the crowd" that
hates America because that keeps him in power.
Annan criticizes the United States because we were right about Iraq and
he was not.
He cannot take the moral high ground because he is immoral. He and the
United Nations must accept responsibility for their inaction in Iraq. If
they do not, they prove they are all immoral and irrelevant.
