The United Nations is pointless, toothless and morally corrupt
It’s that most wonderful time of the year in New York. I mean of course the time when the United Nations General Assembly is in session.
There really is nothing like it. If you can’t get down a couple of blocks on foot you can at least console yourself that some African despot is holed up in his 5-star hotel.
And if you can’t cross town in a car then you can be safe in the knowledge that some Arab potentate is raiding the minibar in a hotel of their choice.
But at least you know that the real action is going on over on the floor of the United Nations.
On Tuesday it was Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan of Turkey who was up. And from the main podium at the UN he used an analogy that people like him enjoy using on 1st Avenue.
“Just as Hitler was stopped by the alliance of humanity 70 years ago, Netanyahu and his murder network must also be stopped by the alliance of humanity.”
At the 79th General Assembly the Turkish president also criticized the U.N. for failing to fulfill its original mission and instead becoming “a dysfunctional structure.”
He’s right on that last bit, at least. But unfortunately he seems not to realize is that one reason the UN is dysfunctional is because it allows despots like him to use the stage to attack not only the country that is hosting them but also our democratic allies.
Jack’s Note: It’s time the UN was dispensed with. Like the League of Nations before it, it has become an organization responsible for more death and destruction than ever imagined. A talk shop for morally bankrupt bottom feeders who have never done a decent days work in their entire lives and can’t stop the violence even if they wanted to. They do not have the power and they do not have the credibility to do anything other than throw Israel to the wolves at the present time. They are as a group to be despised.
