The UN Chokes Again

John Kerry respects the UN. John Kerry wants to turn over some of our sovereignty to the UN. The UN shows once again what an impotent organization it is:

KHARTOUM (Reuters) - The United Nations warned on Wednesday it would not be able to cope if conditions do not improve in Sudan's Darfur region, devastated by violence which has driven more than 1.5 million from their homes.
U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan said earlier this week Sudan had made no progress in the last month to stop the violence, maintain a shaky cease-fire signed in April, or punish those responsible for the fighting. The United States has branded the violence genocide and blames Khartoum and militias.
"We've been receiving reports after reports of clashes, cease-fire breaches ... and so on. So the security situation did not improve," said Radhia Achouri, spokeswoman for the U.N. advanced mission in Sudan.
She said the trend of increasing numbers of displaced by violence in Darfur could soon reach a total of a third of Darfur's six million population being affected by the conflict, saying that was "terrible."
"If the situation continues like this we cannot keep up with this. We cannot keep up with the level of needs," she told reporters in Khartoum. The U.N. has said it has received just a little over half the required funds to meet the needs of the 1.5 million displaced in Darfur. More than 200,000 have also fled to neighboring Chad, encamped in the desolate eastern desert.

The UN is nothing but a good idea, turned into a sham, that is now led by dictators and thugs that are not worthy of having a say in their own nations issues let alone the worlds issues.

Update: Never mind. Iran's Mohhamad Khatami is feeling pretty good about the situation:

Iranian President Mohammad Khatami has expressed confidence that the Sudanese government will be able to solve the crisis in the troubled Darfur region.
Speaking before the Sudanese parliament on Tuesday, the second-day of his three-day visit, Mr. Khatami said Iran is ready to help Sudan solve the Darfur crisis.

My fears have been alleviated. You know, I think Khatami can probably solve the problem better than Kofi Annan.
