| UN envoy to monitor resolution on Syria, Lebanon | |
| 2004-12-15 | |
The UN envoy for the Middle East peace process, Terje Roed-Larsen, will take on an additional task of monitoring the implementation of a resolution that calls on Syria to withdraw its forces from Lebanon, a spokesman said yesterday. Roed-Larsen was appointed a United Nations undersecretary-general by Secretary-General Kofi Annan to monitor the implementation of Resolution 1559 adopted by the United Nations Security Council in October to demand the Syrian withdrawal, said Fred Eckhard. Roed-Larsen will begin his work on January 3.ÂÂ

| #4 "UN monitoring". Maybe that's how the UN hopes to eventually install an international tax to support the UN. They'll start with taxes on smuggling. First "Oil for food", and now whatever smugglers in Syria and Lebanon want to smuggle. |

| #3 Why do I either giggle or spit my coffee out when I start laughing when I read the words "UN to do (insert something here)". |

| #2 That would be Terje Roed-Larsen the antisemite, famous for administrating the Palestinian refugee camps for the U.N.? The one who objected to the IDF inspecting his ambulances, and sees no problem with acknowledged Hamas operatives working in his offices? Yes indeedy, he'll def'nitely be an unbiased observer. |
