Here's a nice dilemma for Lefties. What if UN peacekeepers in the Congo turn out to have been encouraging elephant poaching? Would they continue to give the organisation their unconditional support?

    FTA

    ........"that it betrayed the Bosnian Muslims in Srebrenica. Never mind that its officials were illicitly running oil-for-food scams with Saddam. Never mind that it ordered its local commander not to seize the arms caches that were about to be used for the Rwandan genocide. Never mind that its officials have now been accused of selling arms to the Congolese militias. At least it means well.

      Yay!!

      UN Hatespeak!!

      We Christian Conservatives have long been opposed to the UN! After all, what self respectin Christian would be in favor of an organization whos mission is to establish a world body devoted to that mission.

      And I hear ya pacman! You make a good point! When an organization experiences some failure amongst its poeple ... its good, rational reasonin to demand its demise. (Not that Im agreein with the content of the story ... it IS a blogger mind you.)

      But I liek the tauntin nature of your description...

      "Here's a nice dilemma for Lefties. What if UN peacekeepers in the Congo turn out to have been encouraging elephant poaching? Would they continue to give the organisation their unconditional support?"

      Of course, the exact same thing could be sayed of us Conservatives. With the lowest favorables in our history ... how bad for our nation does Neo-Conism have to get ... before we all decided enough is enough ... and vote for them Libbies!

      Huh?

      That is just one of many stories of such horrible acts. Perhaps Goppy was the progeny of such an abomination.

    Poachers in Congo slaughter 14 elephants

    "The killings, reported to have taken place in the last two weeks, come as the United Nations faces allegations that elements with its peacekeeping force in the central African country may have traded guns for ivory with rebel fighters."
