Another Fund From the U.N.
The would-be world government, the U.N., has unveiled a fund aimed at curing yet another one of the world's ills:
Secretary-General Kofi Annan has announced the creation of a fund to promote democratric institutions and practices around the world - an idea first proposed by the United States.
Gad, what were we thinking?
The United Nations currently supports emerging democracies with legal, technical and financial assistance and advice. Nonetheless, the secretary-general [Kofi Annan] has said the United Nations needs to improve coordination of democracy building activities and mobilization of resources.
The General Assembly said the fund will provide assistance "for projects that consolidate and strengthen democratic institutions and facilitate democratic governance in new or restored democracies."
It's a noble cause indeed. But let's see...the Oil-for-Food probe is still incomplete, with neither Kofi Annan nor his son Kojo in the clear. Nuclear bomb plans go missing from U.N. files. And, a scandal involving U.N. peackeepers sexually abusing women and children in Africa has yet to be investigated.
And we expect the U.N. to be able to competently oversee this latest cache of money? Someone pinch me, I must be dreaming.
