SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Dec 31 – The UN General
Assembly on New Years Eve
confirmed its tax and waste of
over $3 billion in public
funds in a meeting from which
UN Secretary General Antonio
Guterres banned Inner City
Press while he sat on vacation
in Lisbon.
The
meeting was presided over by
Turkish operative Volkan
Bozkir, whose bigoted
statements have resulted in
even NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio
refusing to meet with him, and
who has refused to disclose
who pays his staff.
Previous
Presidents of the General
Assembly John Ashe (RIP) and
Sam Kutesa were shown to have
taken Chinese government firm
bribes. The only reform
announced by the UN was the
disclosure of who pays which
staff members. But Bozkir has
eliminated even that. And his
spokesman Brenden Varma, as
soon as banned Inner City
Press in writing asked him
about it, blocked Inner City
Press on Twitter.
Bozkir
looked angry as Syria spoke
against the IIIM, and Myanmar
defended its treatment of the
Rohingya. When he called on
the US and a voice said,
"please hold," he tried to
move on. But they he waited,
until Kelly Kraft - yet to act
on Guterres' censorship - came
to the seat to speak.
There
weren't even the rights of
reply one would have expected.
The UN under Guterres and
Bozkir is dying a slow death,
sinking into irrelevance as
well as censorship. What is
the public paying for? 2021:
shape up or ship out.
In the
past, votes were taken before
Christmas. But with lazy
Secretary General Guterres
fixated on leaving town to
either collect bribes or
launch a campaign for a second
term with Portuguese media,
the UNGA floundered more than
usual.
When
finally the trough was opened
up, it was dominated by anti
human rights speeches
including by Cameroon, here.
(Guterres has suppored 30+
year ruler Paul Biya in
killing civilians there).
Cameroon
voted with the rogues
throughout, as did Kazakhstan,
while at least 40 states
weren't even present. Yemen
voted against Iran.
When a vote was
called for, some bemoaned
it. And it wasn't
even over - it has to be
repeated on December 24. Watch
