Tim Blair visits the UN. For an example of the latter, examine the UN's attempted tribute to the victims of September 11. It's a collection of 4000 drawings by children from all over the world, stuck on panels by Korean artist Ik-Joong Kang. It is cute and heart-warming and nice, and it has precisely nothing to do with September 11.
The children have simply drawn whatever they wanted to. Chalani, a Sri Lankan boy, contributed as his tribute to the victims a drawing of a robot chef. Another tribute came in the form of this ominous pledge, from young Umaru: "I would like to be President of Uganda."
Japanese children seemed to think that happy squids were evocative of September 11.
Yeah, letting kids take part in a memorial like that was heinous. Clearly the UN are worse than Hitler and must be eradicated from the face of the Earth like the scourge of humanity they obviously are.
