UN office doctored report on murder of Hariri
THE United Nations withheld some of the most damaging allegations against Syria in its report on the murder of Rafik Hariri, the former Lebanese Prime Minister, it emerged yesterday.
The names of the brother of Bashar al-Assad, President of Syria, and other members of his inner circle, were dropped from the report that was sent to the Security Council.
The confidential changes were revealed by an extraordinary computer gaffe because an electronic version distributed by UN officials on Thursday night allowed recipients to track editing changes.
D’OH!
I think the fact that people who want to control the internet can’t even figure out document security should be a troubling sign.
And considering this blatant act of corrupt “diplomacy”, I suggest, as I do every time I speak of the UN, that we need to throw those bastards out of Turtle Bay, make them pay their parking tickets, and let them set up shop somewhere they’re more welcome… Like Hades.
