1. Kofi Annan

is a Muslim. What do you expect that he would say? He has cancelled Christian holiday days off at the UN offices in New York and added Muslim ones.
2. Kofi's klaptrap logic
Steve O ,   LA, CA   (02.07.06)
Not a word about Kassams now or before these strikes! And what's this nonsense about "executions without trial"??? If the IDF were occupying Gaza they wouldn't have to resort to these aerial methods (just as there are no targeted killings in the WB) but since Israel withdrew they are operating against the enemy in a battle zone where they have every right to kill the enemy soldiers without attempting arrest and trial. Either we reoccupy Gaza entirely and arrest the terrorists or we stay out of Gaza and kill them. Which one is it Annan? You can't have it both ways! (And what about those Kassam huh?)

4. KOFI ANNON PLEASE RETURN THE BILLIONS YOUR SON
DACON9 ,   FREEDOM   (02.07.06)
KOFI ANNON PLEASE RETURN THE BILLIONS YOUR SON STOLE FOR YOU. THEN APPRECIATE THE PEOPLE DIED FOR **YOUR FREEDOM. THEN SHUT YOUR MOUTH JUST MAYBE ISRAEL IS TIRED OF DYING FOR YOUR LIES
5. some informations
cordier   (02.07.06)
in the new york times http://www.nytimes.com/2006/02/07/international/middleeast/07mideast.html it is written that "The United States is trying to put off the day that Hamas takes control until after the Israeli elections on March 28, so that financing can continue to flow to pay salaries" Clearly Olmert and Bush agreed to give money to hamas but just after the israeli elections... Olmert is a liar and want to fool israeli people
6. ***OIL 4 FOOD SCANDAL***
Jim Shortz ,   Jerusalem, ISRAEL   (02.07.06)
nice one cloud monkey
7. anan, shut up...
(02.07.06)
the un is a joke anyway, you don't do a shit of what you say and if you do, it takes 3 years when the problem is already solved. ...
8. Can Annan say "Kassam"?
Arie   (02.07.06)
9. Annan's is Absolutely Right . . .
Chaim   (02.07.06)
. . . in order for Israel to avoid this "impermissible" execution without trial, Israel should just declare out and out war on the Palestinian Authority, based on missile fire from territory under their control, and, accordingly, fire on all enemy combatants, "collateral damage" be damned. Or maybe, we should just send our own suicide bombers into Palestinian civilian centers - in such event, Kofi, surely, would not say anything untoward was happening, because he can't seem to get riled up when the Palestinians do it to Israelis. Once again, Kofi is screwing the Jews, and not just his Jewish wife.
10. Why thank you Kofi!!
David ,   Melbourne, Australia   (02.07.06)
From the man who brought us the oil for food program which made his family very wealthy, yet when all is said and done he became the master of dodging bullets. Now, the corrupt Mr Anan is telling Israel how to suck eggs. Mr Annan, dont throw stones at glass houses
11. Kofi Grounds
Zoharah   (02.07.06)
Well, look who woke up! The anti-Israel/anti-Jewish Secretary General of the UN! The Islamofacist crazies have been burning down everything in sight and creating mayhem and violence for days over cartoons and Kofi Grounds suddenly starts percolating (of course has said absolutely nothing to help stem the violence against foreign embassies, and the threat of harm to foreign citizens in Gaza and in the Arab countries) but now feels it is time to tell Israel to stop defending herself against Kassam rockets (and other realistic threats) and that targeted (defensive) killings are basically immoral and that these killings places "innocent bystanders" at risk? What chutzpah! These "bystanders" that associate themselves with leaders and members of these terrorist groups are not innocent; and these targeted killings are absolutely necessary. After all, a suicide bomber doesn't put innocent bystanders at risk? Kofi Grounds needs to be recycled and if the UN is going to do their job properly they need a Secretary General who is not an anti-Semite and one who doesn't cater to terrorists masquerading as diplomats.
12. What Then Does He Call
emanon ,   USA   (02.07.06)
people blowing themselves up to kill civilians? What does he call the gunning down of people waiting for rides? I notice ne has no words of condemnation for these heinious acts.
13. He is funded by Saddam
Christopher ,   Boston, MASS USA   (02.07.06)
While Annan continues to try and cover up the monies his son took from Saddam Hussein as kickbacks, Annan has enough time to overlook muslim terrorism and the Muslim conquering of Eurabia to blae Israel for defending itself. Listening to Annan's demands is tantamount to national suicide. As for "innocent civilians" being hurt, there are two responses: 1. That little child in Sderot injured by a Kassam fired by those very same terrorists Israel removed, yet without ANY negative comment from Annan. 2.If the PA and Hamas wanted to truly protect thir "civilians" they would force their people not to operate inside residential areas. Even better - how about the PA and its subordintes stop terrorism all together, and then the need for an IDF response would be eliminated. But Annan is too busy covering his son's ass from the criticism over his takin kickbacks. So why not scapegoat the Jews. It's a universal event why shouldn't he participate. Especially given the fact that the UN is a Muslim institution
14. scoring points with the intolerant ones
Marcel ,   Florida   (02.07.06)
Kofi is under great pressure from the arab world and he knows what he must do ,attack Israel. It's always worked before but will it keep working ? The U.S. and Europenas always go for Israels' throat when the arab world is unhappy with them and threatens to shut off the oil or withdraw their billlions in investments. Israel is the easy way out for all of them ,but I think their duplicitious betrayal of Israel is NOW coming back to hit them all hard. The hordes will not be satisfied with Jewish blood alone any longer .They're coming after the hypocrites.
15. Kofi, The Arab Butt Kisser
Adina kutnicki ,   US   (02.08.06)
First of all WHO cares what Kofi says? Under his tenure the biggest swindle in UN history occurred. In addition, under his watch the state of Israel has been wiped off the map. He has no moral authority anywhere on the face of the planet with anyone who claims to have a conscience, AND can discern good from evil.
16. Kofi Annan = worthless leader
Mike ,   Holon   (02.07.06)
No one in the world listens to a word he says anyhow. Why should We? he's been proven to be a bold face liar in the past. This man would sell his own mother short if the price was right.
17. and the US still pays their dues to the UN
Avner ,   Savion   (02.07.06)
Well here we are. nothing came of Oil for food. Imagine, we went to Iraq to liberate the Iraqi people. We come to realize the whole story behind oil for food which the Iraqi's suffered under and NOTHING COMES OF IT! NOTHING. Kofi flaps his trap because he is allowed to! Post 9-11 and the world is weaker and the leaders of the free world are wimping out on us except for their strength in driving Israel into more and more concessions to the very people who choose to exterminate us. We went to Iraq and the villians of the world are still the villians of the world BUT EVEN STRONGER. Iran, Syria the Saudi's. What is going on here? Egypt just got a big pay raise from the US and for what, digging tunnels all these years from Egypt to gaza to kill more Israelis?? None of this makes sense because there is no sense in it. Not a bit. Oh yah and I forgot Russia who is screaming ever so loudly about not making santions against Iran. The same Russai who sells long range missles to Syria is building a nuke program for Iran. A nuke program to throw the world into the abyss. Russia who for the love of G-d is part of the quartet of lying fools dictating what Israel should do!! Bush claims to have looked into the soul of Putin hah? Wake up world. Please wake up. http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3212358,00.html see number 15
18. uh huh
Jonathan ,   Berkeley USA   (02.08.06)
Can we arrest them? no Will the palestinian "authority" arrest them? no Will they continue to attack civilans? yes. it doesn't seem like there is an option there, eh Kofi?
19. It really is quite amazing.
Andy ,   Israel   (02.08.06)
It really is quite amazing. Israel is attacked from foreign territory and is told that it is not appropiate to strike back at the enemy's military. "Execution without trial" he calls it. He expects us to risk our troops to protect their citizens, go in on foot and arrest them like gentlmen, and try them in court. Well believe it or not, we are actually doing precisely that in the West Bank, but I guess our military just think it is too dangerous in Gaza. Is there another country in the world that is criticised for attacking its enemy"s military. May be our selective killing is just too clean and too much like a personal execution. May be if we carpet bombed Gaza like the US in Afghanistan, or Russia in Chechnya, neither of whom have been criticised by the UN, it would appear more like a war get less criticism. I doubt it-we are Israel after all.
20. Jewish blood is cheap
mordy   (02.08.06)
to Annan and Co. Jewish blood means nothing-it is OK that rockets explode in houses of people who were just thrown out of Gush Katif, but it is not OK to get rid of women and children killers.
21. What an idiot.
(02.08.06)
Someone should explain the definition of "innocent people" to him.
22. Kofi Annan-A worthless leader of a worthless organization
Elle ,   NYC   (02.08.06)
How long is this guy to stay in power? Are there any elections or is he leader-for-life? He is no better than those Arab dictators-for-life. Neither cares for Jewish life or any life for that matter. Why isn't he focusing his attention on the Sudan where real horrible murders are taking place?
23. for you all here.
(02.08.06)
you just do not like anything to be said against Israel. Yes, you are executing people without trial. He did a lot of wrong, but two wrongs don't make right! you are wrong, terribly, too.
24. #14 & 17, I recomended your talk backs.
Carl ,   רחובות   (02.08.06)
Excellent talking points! This folks is pre-shoah and the world sits around masturbating... just like the years leading up to it. War on Terror, bullshit!
25. War's a bitch, Kofi
shuki   (02.08.06)
26. WOW Kofi, you do have it in you...
Dan ,   USA   (02.08.06)
you can get mad and really show it. Too bad you are such an idiot in your expression of righteous indignation. Next time, try showing the same anger on behalf of the victims of these scum. That would get your more credibility. Remember Kofi, the only good terrorist is a dead terrorist. They are the only ones who cannot escape their prison cells in hell.
27. Capital Punishment
CLL ,   Tampa, FL USA   (02.08.06)
Who says Israel doesn't have the death penalty. If you tried and locked up these jerks then you'd have to provide conjugal visits with their wives and all kinds of other treats. Just like with Amir, or do only Israeli murders gets special treats?
28. Hey Kofi again kissing Muslim A...........
Jorge ,   Tegucugalpa   (02.08.06)
Back to your trade Kofi, ready to do oil bussines in case Iran has an embargo
29. From the fruitcake that lets arabs kill Christians in Sudan.
Bunnie Meyer ,   Santa Monica, CA   (02.08.06)
The UN is and always has been worthless. Anan simply allows the mulsim terrorists to kill the black Christians with impunity in Dafor an he want to talk about Israel. What blatent crap. Is he a European or what?
