SDNY COURTHOUSE,
May 22 – It was UN Security
Council circus. After failing
all over the world, from
#Yemen through #Cameroon to
#Burma, on Sunday the UNSC on
Sunday May 16 held a belated
Zoom meeting on Israel -
Palestine, and Inner City
Press (banned from the UN for
1049 days) live tweeted it, here
and below.
Now on May 22, a
canned UNSC Press Statement
via China, with USUN's Linda
Thomas-Greenfield headed to
Ecuador leaving in place
corrupt UNSG Antonio Guterres
to ban the Press: "The members
of the Security Council
welcomed the announcement of a
ceasefire beginning 21 May and
recognized the important role
Egypt, other regional
countries, the UN, the Middle
East Quartet and other
international partners played
in this regard. The
Security Council called for
the full adherence to the
ceasefire.
The members of the Security
Council mourned the loss of
civilian lives resulting from
the
violence.
The members of the Security
Council stressed the immediate
need for humanitarian
assistance to the Palestinian
civilian population,
particularly in Gaza, and
supported the Secretary
General’s call for the
international community to
work with the United Nations."
All this SG cares about it
stealing five more years, to
steal.
From May 16:
First up is corrupt UNSG
Guterres.
So
@AntonioGuterres , who's main
focus is getting five more
years to live alone in the UN
mansion, surrounded by Yes-Men
and covering up bribes and UN
rapes, cries a crocodile tear
for AP in Gaza. But he ordered
Press roughed up and banned
from the UN, 1049 days
Here
is some video of
UNSG @AntonioGuterres '
security thugs' treatment of
Press, right in the UN, on 3
July 2018 - no punishment, no
appeal, ban on Press
continues.
Only days ago, UN
of
@AntonioGuterres sent
Swiss police to swat the home
of a UN whistleblower who,
like Inner City Press, has
dared put in a CV to trigger a
debate before Guterres is
given 5 more years to oversee
civil death and bribes, here
Next up,
@AntonioGuterres ' envoy
Wennesland. Here's banned
Inner City Press when Guterres
gave him the SRSG post, one
Guterres has left vacant for
more than two years on
#WesternSahara, here
Next up, Malki,
who starts: "Allow me to thank
China... and the Secretary
General." Before
@AntonioGuterres to
conceal his own corruption had
Inner City Press roughed up
and banned from the UN, Inner
City Press used to ask Malki
questions -- Oct
22, 2015 Palestine's
Riad Malki; ICP asked him if
"veto restraint" for war
crimes would ban veto on
#GazaWar
Malki
today: "Israel keeps
saying, Put yourself in our
shoes. But Israel is wearing
military boots." He puts the
death toll at 200.
Next up: Israel
PR, with photo of "victim of
Hamas," which is compares to
ISIS. [Inner City Press
coverage here]
Says he called his elderly
parents in southern Israel
"who have just 30 seconds to
get into a bomb shelter."
Next up: Jordan.
Is Room Rater going to weigh
in on the speakers in this
useless meeting of the UN
Security Council, which has
never met once on, for
example, the mass killing of
civilians by the govt of
#Cameroon, like it failed on
#SriLanka before?
Next up in UNSC
circus: #Egypt,
from a luxury hotel room, it
seems. Inner City Press room
rater 2 of 10, especially in
light of hypocrisy on
protection of journalists and
press freedom here.
Next up: China.
Inner City Press will forego
Room Rating, as Chinese
foreign minister just said
"force can never bring piece."
#Xinjiang #Taiwan #Tibet.
Calls out US on press
statement block. Oh, and at
UN, China's Ambassador blocks
Inner City Press on Twitter
Next up: Tunisia.
Room rating? 4/10, good
signage, lacking in
personality. Oh and here's
Tunisia UNESCO corruption, here,
@AntonioGuterres
covering up sexual abuse by
Tunisia "peacekeeper" here.
Next up: Norway,
with UN flag, as its big wig
Roed-Larsen was getting down
with Jeffrey Epstein, &
its UN Ambassador
@Mona_Juul colludes
in @AntonioGuterres '
ban on Inner City Press and
has not answered Inner City
Press' questions.
2 of 10.
Next up: Ireland.
Points for use of Gaeilge
("Rialtas na hÉireann") &
3 flags.
@irishmissionun hasn't
done anything about
@AntonioGuterres ' ban of
Inner City Press, while FM
talks about press freedom
(hypocrisy), but in terms of
room, highest rating so far:
5/10. Matthew Russell Lee and
3 others
Next up: @LindaT_G
of @USUN , who
says "in the hours since the
UNSC met on this topic." What,
a Saturday meeting? Blinken's
to Denmark; Administration so
far allowing
@AntonioGuterres to
censor Press & block
opponents. As on #Honduras, #fail
Next up: Russia
Deputy FM, going after US
Ambassador (due to her being
on Cabinet). Drab wood
paneling, but double credit
for double-headed eagle coat
of arms. Rating: 4 of 10
Next up: Estonia
(which China, at least in
translation, calls Ass-tonia)
- points lost for white walls,
and @EstoniaUN has
done nothing on, and therefore
colludes in,
@AntonioGuterres ' ban of
Inner City Press. Why not
flash some blockchain, at
least? Rating: 1/10
Next up: Viet
Nam. Points for ASEAN
flag, and bookshelves behind.
Amateur use of teleprompter,
and needless to say support
for censorship by
@AntonioGuterres , as on
Mother Mushroom (here)
resulting in precise rating of
3.5 out of 10
Next up: Mexico,
drag come-down from
Andrés Manuel López Obrador's
heavy wood to UNGA. Also,
side-eye at TelePrompter, and
sadly no action (yet?)
on @AntonioGuterres '
ban on Inner City Press. Con
esperanza, pues, too close to
US and far from God, rating of
2/10
Next up: China
gives the floor to Kenya, just
as #Kenya may have to give its
railroads and more to China.
Inner City Press coverage here.
Presentation broken up by tech
glitch and screen of UN's
compromised platform. Sympathy
rating: 3/10
Next up (or down)
- @UKUN_NewYork
's @BWoodward_UN
glancing straight down at
TelePrompter, as she refused
to answer any Inner City Press
questions nor circulate its
& others' CVs. Loud
background noise!
UNderperformer, so far, Vogue
notwithstanding. Rating: 1/10
Entering UN
Security Council circus
garbage time, world's
largest democracy has
drab background and, notably,
no mention of #COVID (RIP).
2/10. And Niger,
which first brought COVID into
the UN which has been
essentially closed since.
3/10.
Next up: St
Vincent & the
Grenadines. Big plant but
terrible sound quality. Inner
City Press exposed NYPD
detention of previous
Ambassador Camillo Gonsalves (here) but
Mission did nothing when
@AntonioGuterres had
Inner City Press roughed up.
3/10
Next up: @FranceONU
's @NDeRiviere .
Workman-like, with photocopy
paper & water-cooler (the
talk around which apparently
does not include Paul Biya's
slaughter of civilians in
#Cameroon). Good use of
"demarche," but colludes in
ban of Inner City Press;
rating 3/10
Next up (now
Antonio Guterres left
the Zoom meeting, apparently
has some bribery or cover-up
meeting or Big Lunch for Big
Tony to attend) - it's Algeria.
Clear winner on house plants.
No mention of Western
Sahara, censorship goes
without saying. Rating: 4/10
We're past the
member states, to UN rep of
the League
of Arab States. He was
Egypt's Ambassador & head
of G-77, used that post to get
a UN post as Special Adviser
on Africa, now still in NY for
LAS. Points for careerism,
downgrade for Venetian blinds;
rating 2/10
At the end, China (whose Ambassador
blocks Inner City Press blocks Inner City
Press) bragged that it was an open meeting
and all should now engage constructively.
