Kofi Speaks
Secretary-General Kofi Annan, the failed UN chief, reflexively weighs in about Israel: Israel is in “flagrant violation” of a poorly crafted peace accord for trying to prevent weapons from being delivered to terrorists who had been raining missiles on their cities. The only thing that jolts Annan into semi-sentience is Israel — and you won't be hearing anything complementary. Hezbollah said they would disarm, but now have said they won't, and because no one else is going to do it for them, Israel has to risk life and limb to protect life and limb. Kofi doesn't say, we will have to look into Israel's claims, for the Kofi is a knee-jerk parrot of terrorist logic. Kofi doesn't condemn the gang that took over Lebanon for now not disarming. Kofi doesn't condemn France for its hypocrisy in affecting involvement, but when it comes down to it, committing all of 200 troops, a whole 50 of whom have arrived. Nothing like a leader who thinks about stuff.
