KOFI ANNAN - International Blowhard

The Sydney Morning Herald published this story in which UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan blames the United States for the recent bombing at the UN Headquarters in Baghdad. As I understand, US Forces offered to provide protection and were told it wasn't welcome.

This is a perfect example of the attitude displayed by most Security Counsel members and indicates why so many Americans think the UN is becoming an increasingly irrelevant international body.

Jon Wright of GDay Mate does a fine job of analyzing the article and I'll defer to it. His are my sentiments precisely.
