Hypocrisy

Janet Albrechtsen in The Australian nails it.
The UN system works to legitimate rather than obliterate terrorism. The Nobel peace prize committee got one thing right. Tragically, the UN is "an organisation that can hardly become more than its members permit". On the terrorism front so far, that has meant UN-fomented terrorism and a UN-inspired definition of self-defence that prevents a country from defending itself against terrorists. At that rate, let's hope the UN digs its own grave before it digs one for the rest of us.

Read it all.
