Darfur

Mia Farrow in a piece in the WSJ about Sudan.

She has been to Darfur 7 times and cannot understand why the UN hasn’t passed Resolution 1769 in order to help the starving people in the region.

Can anyone name one problem the UN ever solved?

The UN is nothing more than one big international committee that has lots of meetings.

Think about it. When’s the last time a committee meeting solved anything? When I worked in a Fortune 500 company, I cannot remember one meeting that actually resulted in some problem actually being solved. More often than not, we ended our meetings with an agreement to have more meetings.

The UN is worthless and, once again, unless the US is willing to go in there as the world’s cop more people will needlessly die in refugee camps. More talking isn’t going to get it done.

And the meetings will continue, until we figure out why no work is being done.
