Shamelessness
In the great tradition of diplomacy Kofi Annan assured that the new peace keeping force in Lebanon will be incapable of fulfilling UN resolution 1701 and UN resolution1559:
”It is not expected to achieve by force what must be realized through negotiation and an internal Lebanese consensus,” Annan said in a report to the U.N. Security Council on implementation of the Aug. 11 resolution calling for an end to the Israeli-Hezbullah conflict.
Wondering what is the mission of this force are not answered from Anna’s deputy explanation:
Deputy Secretary-General Mark Malloch Brown said countries needed to understand that the force wouldn’t be offensive. ”It’s not going to go in there and attempt large-scale disarmament,” he said.
So why the hell anybody need it? it is obvious: this force is a fig leaf to cover the moral shamelessness of diplomats like Mr. Annan.
