While all eyes are on Iraq, no one (least of all Europeans) seem to be concerned about the continuing slaughter in the Congo. Hundreds have apparently been killed in the last few days.
We have all seen the pompous whining from those who object to US/UK intervention in Iraq and who continue to claim the moral high ground for the UN and Europe but they are saying little or nothing about equally important issues.
What is the UN doing about it? Where do the member nations stand? Any resolution in the works? Where are the peacekeepers?
The Canadian government is silent and our PM is working on his legacy.
The US and the UK are pre-occupied with Iraq.
The Axis of Morality –Russia, France and Germany are working on their future domination of Europe plan.
Belgium?– who can blame it for keeping quite. The rest of Europe is ????
China?
Japan?
India?
The Arab states are pre-occupied with how they can torpedo any future Israel/PLO peace plan so they can continue to blame the US for current and future problems in the ME.
The African states are apparently not concerned enough to come to the aid of one of their own.
The future of the UN is in quetion and those who say they believe in it are AWOL.
