Serious allegations and proof of widespread fraud, money laundering, sexual abuse (including of children), drugs, obstruction of justice, kickbacks and payoffs, etc, are apparently not good enough for the UN. But, HEY!, some rumors are "sufficiently serious to merit an official inquiry." (via the Drudge Report)
The UN has learned of "very, very serious" allegations that the United States is secretly detaining terrorism suspects in various locations around the world, notably aboard prison ships, the UN’s special rapporteur on terrorism said.
While the accusations were rumours, rapporteur Manfred Nowak said the situation was sufficiently serious to merit an official inquiry.
"There are very, very serious accusations that the United States is maintaining secret camps, notably on ships," the Austrian UN official told AFP, adding that the vessels were believed to be in the Indian Ocean region.
"They are only rumours, but they appear sufficiently well-based to merit an official inquiry," he added.
Apparently, that is all that it takes to condemn the United States, especially with GWB and the GOP in charge. I’m wondering, does the UN, and the Left, actually have real proof of anything? All I ever see is innuendo, rumors, and faulty logic.
Great job! The U.N. has absolutely no ground to stand on accusing the U.S. of anything! I can’t believe anyone still takes them serious. It amazes me. They really need to go.
I’m back from vacation and ready to roll! I’ve got a petition for you if you get a chance.
gee, i always thought that innuendo, rumors and faulty logic used against the other side was the best thing to get the attention away from the money laundering, sexual abuse, and corruption that my side was doing…
then i opened my eyes, and became a Republican. and am now reviled by the rest of the world.
can’t please everyone. i’ll settle for pleasing those who matter.
You know, I have no verification on this, but I heard that Nowak likes to have sex with donkeys.
I think it bears investigation.
Apparently the UN has a new policy….it’s called “Blame Bush”. (Divert attention by throwing mud).
It didn’t work for Kerry and the Liberals…but Kofi is too STUPID to know that.
I think we should start rumors about Hillary’s lesbian lover. Watch the moonbats go crazy asking for proof, something they have never had.
