...born with the gift of laughter and a sense that the world was mad

Melanie nails it: The indefatigable Ms. Phillips speaks truth to power, gives the corrupt, morally bankrupt international body a good raking over:

It has been obvious for years that the UN is simply a club of tyranny. It ignores, condones or protects gross abuses of human rights, while attacking and undermining democracies which abide by them. The fact that it is sanctified by the west as having more legitimacy than individual nations, and for embodying the deluded progressive belief that ‘soft power’ can bring about the brotherhood of man on earth, has meant that the west has turned a blind eye to the excesses committed by member states and institutionalised the UN as a weapon against western interests.

Time to end the anachronistic worship of the UN (the UN of the era when the Universal Declaration of Human Rights was ratified; the UN of our dreams) since it's blind to the reality of what the UN has become: the organization that's sealing our doom.
