"Reasons to hate the United Nations, number 2375:

With Iran threatening to wipe Israil off the map, Al Zakawi busy with his start-a-civil-war-through-sectarian-murder programme. A genocide going on in Darfur, Robert Mugabie turning the former bread-basket of Africa into a basket case and Fidel Castro still inexplicably alive it's good good to see the all-encompasing moral authority of the United Nations being turned to the most vital human rights issue facing mankind today. I refer of course to giving New Zealand Maori more rights!"

SNN 42 is out, Shire Network News podcast that is. I'm just listening to it now. Apart from much other wisdom Tom Paine's item, which I quote above, caps off nicely the whole Marxist Sociology Professor from Mexico episode. Of course SNN tells it best- not only because they tell it last, and stand on the shoulders of the giants who have commentated all week before them, but because there's nobody else quite so terribly clever and amusing.

Another git from the UN stopped by NZ to reveal to us some bullshit wisdom, bullshit history and bullshit advice. This time New Zealand wasn't buying! On your bike Rodolfo!
