United Nations, Kofi Annan and The Pity of It All
If something good can come out of a war, United Nations is certainly the best example de tirer du mal même un bien.
To save succeeding generations from the scourge of war it's United Nations main goal and she's has been failing on that since 1945.
Kofy Annan is the seventh Secretary-General of the United Nations and the first African to be elected and is certainly by far the most incompetent Secretary General in the history of the Organization.
It is true.The Secretary General of the United Nations has no army, no money (that comes from the main enemy of United Nations-the government of United States) but he is not the Queen of England either.
The Secretary General of The UN has huge influence that is essentially a product of what every body-even those who administer the empire- can easily see:his impartiality.
The Secretary General is interested in The Peoples of United Nations,peoples of the empire included.
That a Secretary General of United Nations will seat and do nothing while peoples of United Nations (Irak,Lebanon,Palestine) are being killed,colonized,humilated,raped,denied their basic human rights invites pessimism.
That this Secretary General is an African and therefore someone with moral duty to be against any form of colonization,any form of racism - and is not possible to understand the policy of the empire towards the Arabs whithout admiting the obvious:It is a policy based on Racism -that this Secretary General does not act against this, invites suicide.
They(the administrators of the american empire and their friends) consider the Arabs has half human beings, they despised the arabs.They have the same attitude that the French,British,Portuguese colonial elite used to have towards ...Mr kofy Annan ancestors.
And still have at close doors.
What a Pity!Mr Kofy Annan intervention would not have impeded the american invasion of Irak and the subsequent crimes against the innocent people of Irak,neither his intervention would have stopped the american dog in the middle east in invading and raping Lebanon, but his intervention would have saved the honour of African man in the Arab world,where we are, as everywhere, despised.
His intervention, and by intervention I do not mean evasive diplomatic language or useless trips to Israel but a strong "BASTA!",would have sent a very powerfull message of hope to the Arab world and to all those who are figthing against injustice.
Had Mr Kofy Annan being little more a General and less a secretary he would have probably chosen to resign by now and had he had courage to do it, he would have probably done more against racism,colonialism than all the speechs,conferences,manifestations produced during his life time.
But an act of moral courage is impossible from such a man.
If there was a conspiracy to prove that black man is incomptent,lazy, coward,without any leadership skills, it would not have been possible to find a better example than the present Secretary General of United Nations.
Other aspect very disturbing of this lost oppotunity is the almost complete absence of criticism of Mr Koffy Annan.
Certainly racism au contraire has something to do with it, were Mr Annan Swedish, the criticis would have been numerous and much more implacable. Criticism about his role(negligence at best) during the genocide in Rwanda would certainly have forced him to resign in disgrace.
But what is really sad and tragic is absence of criticism from Africans and Afro-americans.
It is as if one of our brother or sister is in position of power,what is important is to be THERE.
That he or she (Colin Powell or Condoleezza Rice, for example) can by their action be directly involved in criminal policies responsible for the death of thousands of our brothers and sisters in the Arab world,that he or she can by his inaction (the present Secretary of the United nations) be responsible for doing nothing to prevent those criminal policies, does not matter.
What is important is that the brother or the sister is in the power or in the office. As almost always in our history, what is important is the form not the susbstance.Nowdays, the colour of skin is much important than the man.
What a pity that those who are from the people that suffer the most from racism,colonization did not learn nothing from History and prefer today to play the role of executioners.
No one never told the present "Secretary General" of the United Nations that he was elected to defend the Charter of the United Nations and that the Charter of the UN is much important important than the constitution of the empire.
From the Charter of the UN depend the happiness of The Peoples of The World; from the constitution of the empire, only the greedy of the few.The moral choice to be done is not so difficult.
Africa, once more lost (through one of his son) a Rendez Vous with History.
What a shame!What a pity!What a lost opportunity!
