Parting Shots From Kofi

Kofi Annan delivered some well placed jabs at King George and his administration today in his farewell address at Harry Truman's presidential library in Independence, Missouri. Annan was particularly hard on Georgie regarding the invasion of Iraq without UN authorization: "When power, especially military force, is used, the world will consider it legitimate only when convinced that it is being used for the right purpose, for broadly shared aims, in accordance with broadly accepted norms." Much like a father chastising his son (which unfortunately Georgie's daddy failed to do), Kofi Annan (while praising Harry Truman), appeared to tell him: "As President Truman said, the responsibility of the great states is to serve, and not dominate, the peoples of the world," Mr Annan said. "He believed strongly that henceforth security must be collective and indivisible. That was why, for instance ... he insisted, when faced with aggression by North Korea against the south in 1950, on bringing the issue to the United Nations." Read on..... Of course as Georgie did with his daddy or any other person of authority with a touch of intelligence, he will do nothing but show phony self-righteous indignation, pout like a baby, and do exactly the opposite.
