UN GATE / SDNY,
Nov 30 - The United Nations,
its unaccountable senior
leadership and sychophantic
press corps all seem pleased
by the nomination
of perceived supporters to
represent the US from January
20 on.
Witness the
canned Q&A in the UN noon
briefing of November 23, which
again banned Inner City Press
- and its questions about UN
corruption and sexual abuse, Cameroon,
Honduras
and other UN failures.
Now on November
30, after 10 pm, the UN's
censoring spokesman Stephane
Dujarric has issued this: "The
Secretary-General was pleased
to speak with President-elect
Joseph R. Biden today to
extend his personal
congratulations to the
President-elect.
The Secretary-General
underscored the essential role
played by the enduring close
co-operation between the
United States and the United
Nations. He looks
forward to working with the
President-elect and his team
to building on our partnership
to address the many urgent
issues facing the world today,
including the COVID-19
pandemic, climate change,
upholding peace and security,
promoting human rights, and
addressing humanitarian
needs." What hypocrisy by
Guterres, who supports the
killing of civilians in
Cameroon, and censorship in
UN.
Inner City Press
before corrupt UNSG Antonio
Guterres had it thrown
out without due process
or appeal covered not only the
UN and its "Peacekeeping"
missions in Haiti and
elsewhere, but also Antony
Blinken (here,
meeting Prince Zeid) and Linda
Thomas-Greenfield (here,
after a trip to Somalia; Inner
City Press covered the UN
Security Council trip to
Djibouti).
So would it
be the case that Blinken and
Thomas-Greenfield would cast a
blind eye at UN censorship
and lack of
accountability, from Cameroon
to the banning of the Press
that asks? Watch this site.
