UN-cool
The United Nations...an great idea in theory, but is it just a great theory in ineffective practice?
We'll take a look at just that question, in a special Daily Shirt Investigative Report: The UN - Body For World Order or Pulling The Shirt Over Your Eyes?
The UN is always in the news. Why? It's an organisation that proports to represent the governments - and by extension, the citizens - of the world. They are supposedly the keepers of the keys to order, justice and warfare. While we can all agree that these aspects of societal living are of paramount importance, why is it such a maligned organisation?
Well, there are couple of problems. 1) When you staff an organisation with bureaucrats with their own agendas, the natural result is gridlock. Everything becomes a tradeoff and no one gets what they want - or need - for their countries or people.
2) This business of 'the veto' ensures that those bureaucrats who come from countries special enough to wave their economic or war-making wand and say that one discussion or another is off the table guarantees that the strong dominate every conversation and ideas of order and justice are advanced only as far those who dictate the terms of conversation will allow them to go. That's the short version. Don't like a topic? Wave that wand, say that it's a non-issue and that you don't recongise it, and away it goes. If only life for the rest of us was that easy.
3) That, in the eyes of a certain section of a certain religious denomination, the UN represents the anti-Christ embodied and that it's existence is evidence of the end of the world. Well, how can one argue with such a well-defined, logically argued position? Especially in light of the picture that the Shirtmaster dug up of the current Secretary-General. This is a zoom-in on the right eye...
Obviously, the double white-spot is proof positive of this assertion of evil. No doubt about it. I can feel the evil just leaping off the screen and trying to suck my soul into an abyss of malignancy from which light and hope are doomed to writhe in tormented despondency.
So, there we have it...bureaucratic gridlock, organisational undermining from positions of power, and the influence of Hell. From this, it's clear that the structure is rotten at the foundations and needs to be torn down and rebuilt in our, enlighted Western image.
That, or realise that power must not be allowed to corrupt, lest we find ourselves in a perilous struggle for equality...kinda like the one we're currently in.
Oh, and here's Shirty...
