In Geneva today, with Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon presiding, the UN launched yet another “high-level” development thingamabob. This time it’s not a UN Fund, or a Program, or an Initiative, or a Group, or an Alliance, but a “Forum” — the “Development Cooperation Forum,” which will hold its first biennial grand pow-wow in NY in 2008.Well, I guess Ban had to do it, otherwise the UN system might have been stuck trying to squeak by with only the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund, the UN Development Program, the regional Development Banks, the UN Development Group, the Commission on Sustainable Development, the Commission for Social Development, the Millennium Development Project (now folded into the UNDP), the five Regional Economic Commissions, the Department of Economic and Social Affairs, UNCTAD, UNEP, UNIFEM, UN-Habitat, the UNFPA, the UNCDF, OCHA, or pick your own… my favorite, on the basis of verbiage alone, is (hang on for the ride): the High-Level Panel on System-Wide Coherence in Areas of Development, Humanitarian Assistance and Environment.











All expenses paid by you the taxpayer.
Airfare,Hotels, Meals etc.
What's it going to take to close that stupid rat hole down? It's a joke. The fact that this assembly of rogues, embezzlers, thugs, back stabbers, clowns and moronic deadbeats has a permanent address in NYC rather than some third world hellhole is getting old.
Note to next Republican President: get us out of the UN!!
I would hope that Canada's New Government would withhold funding to the UN until they clean up their act!
Of Course that would be FOREVER!
I like the Operation For Uniting Communist Koreans
Maybe its time to evict the whole damn UN from american soil and ether tears down that wretched building or turn it into a homeless selter i say move it to BELING or HANOI its a more approprate for a place or petty tyrants,despots,and crinimals
Kate, again your truncated headings yield a timeless pearl:
"UN Commission On Sustainable Bureaucracy"
This cuts all the global warming/climate change/resource use/population control sophistry down to a very succinct and clear motive.
Here is an even simpler contracted syllogism of that concept:
Sustainability = endless bureaucratic empire building.
How true.
Every solution offered by the UN involves constructing unaccountable omnipotent regulatory bureaucracies which are extensions of the UN inner circle profiteers.
Global green dogma and now climate hysteria has given them a natural hobby horse to ride in spreading globally linked regulatory networks for fun and profit.
If you live in a free sovereign nation don't entertain taking a bite of this poisoned apple.
Can someone hack the new Canadian No-Fly List computer and add about 1000 names, Please?
How did we ever do without it??!!
"Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon" - appears to have the same grasp of world affairs as the former Koffi guy.
"Half-moon" moniker seems more appropriate.
Sounds like same old, same old UN.
Next thing we know Moe Strong will be head of some other reconstituted corrupt UN bureaucracy.
I wonder how many diplomats, aides, ambassadors, and hangers on, would be so eager to work for the UN if the headquarters were in Darfur, Bangladesh, or Iraq insteadof NYC. These dictators etc live high on the hog while their people starve back home. Anyone know what happened to the ambassador to the UN from Iraq after the fall of Saddam. Where is he now.
martT - worse the slobs get diplomatic immunity during their stay with here and open drug dealing as mentioned in this older expose book is common. I saw another reference to drug dealing by UN staffers in a magazine expose not that long ago(can't remember where). Diplomatic bags are immune from inspection.

How about the Commission for the Unification of National Transglobals?
Looks like acronym hell to me. I would add the following:
High Order Regional Regressive Economical Necrotic Development Of Undermining States
HORRENDOUS

"Commission for the Unification of National Transglobals"
Now you got it Ratty...it's a transnational progressivist hoedown and make work project....Transnational Progressivism has one by- product: Bureaucracies paid for by the people they regulate.
The global bureaucratic expansion relies on the central transnational Progressivist cartel to invent schemes to feed it a constant diet of tax revenues and expansionary criteria.
Transnational Progressivism has never constructed a wealth engine that rewards private sector/individual productivity and creativity...TP rewards the parasitic/predatory non value added culture that illegitimately presumes to control, tax, and regulate the wealth creators.
Their bureaucracies operate not unlike the Mob in taking a skim of legitimate business/markets in return for not shutting their owners down with strangling regulatory demands.
To these people (in the global sustainability rackets) it is not important to own oil wells or mines, or refineries or resource rich land...only that they have the power to tax, regulate and defund the resource markets...this is where the real wealth and power lay.
Ask the youngest lord Rothschild about this.
Too bad UN alphabet soup can't feed the world's hungry.
More jobs to fill. By wives, children, relatives, etc.
The air pump(money) inflating this already bloated bueracracy just keep going and going. The UN is just a major cluster$%#^ anyway.
Yea yea Plover, get the UN out of the US.
Miss Rosett is a National Treasure, sure hope her and Family never camp out at Fort Macey Park.

Do you suppose that these UN skunks will name SUNG MUNG WEIRD MOON as amabsador to freak weekie land?
The UN Commission on Sustainable Conflict.
I'll cooperate with you if you cooperate with me and we'll all be happier together when we cooperate with one another. End of forum.
And they'll all be Barkin at the Ban Ki-moon saloon so soon.
I was just thinking , are the Lewis's , David Lewis, Stephen Lewis, and Avi Lewis the first set of permanent family government employees?
just cant wait to see the generations of Trudeaus all lined up at the public trough. I guess when gramps Trudeau sold out to that nasty Imperial oil there just werent enough millions to sustain the clan without long time government assistance.
