Oh Joy

Heard this morning on the radio that the UN resolution on Sudan has had to drop the threat of sanctions against the government.

If you hear anyone supporting doing anything to save lives (over 30,000 dead already) you must respond, "No we must only act when we have UN approval, otherwise it will be illegal".

While the Bush administration is far from perfect, the left are even worse. So blinded by their hatred of the right they can't see the flaws of a UN system where North Korea and Zimbabwee have equal voting rights with Canada and the United Kingdom. Where coutries don't act in the greater good, they act in their domestic political interests. Where dictators and democratically elected rulers are afforded equal status.

Of course anyone supporting military intervention should be charged with war crimes.

The left don't care about the lives of the people in Sudan. The Dimocrats and Greens never said anything about it until the US senate passed a resolution calling it a genocide. They suddenly found time to comment once the press became interested.

One sentiment I agree with entirely: "Democracy thrives though conflict. Without a serious left, able to structure a coherent argument, the right will only atrophy".
