Did I miss something?
Secretary General Kofi Annan on Monday will propose establishing new rules for the use of military force, adopting a tough anti-terrorism treaty that would punish suicide bombers, and overhauling the United Nation’s discredited human rights commission, according to a confidential draft of a report on U.N. reform.
The 63-page draft report represents Annan’s most ambitious effort to restore international confidence in an organization that has been traumatized by divisions over the Iraq war and battered by revelations of financial impropriety and sexual misconduct by its personnel.
Is it budget time at the UN?
I don’t know if any of these things wil come to pass, but conservatives would be wise to work with Annan to achieve these goals, and then get back to the business of shoving him out the door.
