Kofi Annan admits the UN has little interest in preventing the tragedy in Darfur:
Although the UN vowed "never again" in the aftermath of the Rwandan genocide and killings at Srebrenica, the organisation has been unable to end a three-year crisis in Sudan's Darfur region, where more than 200,000 people are thought to have died.
"It is deeply, deeply disappointing and it's tragic," said Mr Annan. "But we do not have the resources or the will to confront the situation."
Yet the UN has plenty of will to condemn Israel while overlooking the endless atrocities committed against women, children, and civilians by the nations that attack Israel.
It's the UN in a nutshell - dedicated not at all to world peace or to helping those in need; but used primarily by dictators and oppressors to give themselves phony political cover.
