#1 What? No outrage from Murat? No calls for justice from the perpetually peeved?

I mean, this IS the UN, after all! They're supposed to be the paragon of morality! Why aren't they being held to their own standards?!

#2 Why would murat have an outrage - it is not American committing these crimes!

#3 These activities in the Congo are probably also the equivalent of a petri dish for the spread of AIDS, too. Nice going, UN. But it is under the auspices of the UN, so it must be OK.

#4 Blanket media coverage on this in 5... 4... 3... 2... 1... 0... -1.. -2... -3...

Oh I see.... can't blame Bush (yet) so this will not be covered. In about 3-6 months the media will pick up on it and blame Bush for the 'coverup'.....

#5 Bush for the 'coverup'

Nah. For not giving the UN enough respect and cash.

#6 Soldiers having sex for money (or bananas) ?
How unnatural !
It would be far better to adopt a realistic attitude, like the French, who supplied a "bordel mobile de campagne" where necessary.
Soldiers are not saints.

#7 I am sure the UN sends all the troops on their Peace Keeping missions with UN approved condoms. You know the ones with the little blue helmet on the end.

#8 I get it!

The U.N. is being Culturally Sensitive. This is their homage to the Comfort Women (or sexual slavery) of the Imperial Japanese Army.

(Note - modern Japan does not support such practices as Comfort Women.)

UN Troops + Teenage Refugees = Sex

Business as usual for the UN, I see.

#10 like the French, who supplied a "bordel mobile de campagne"

So that's how, in 1940, the French got caught with their pants down.
