can anyone be worse than Kofi?
3. The UN is inherently biased and Kofi made it even more so ..
redmike ,   tel aviv   (10.14.06)
The UN is religiously and geographically totally unbalanced and therefore inherently biased. Kofi brought the UN only disrepute and scorn and many died because of him and I am not talking about Palestinians or Israelis who make up only a tiny percentage of the dead during Kofi’s term. He would hide his head in shame if he had any sense of honor but he has none. Ban's job will be very difficult but he 'appears' the right man for the job based on what I have read. I wish him well and hope that he will remove the ignominious stain that hangs over the UN,
