I just read a news story about the U.N. acting like an exasperated schoolmarm in Iraq, asking an unruly class to behave. This is the lead to that story:
"A U.N. envoy urged Iraq's government on Saturday to halt a slide into civil war and stop the "cancer" of sectarianism from destroying the country, warning that the carnage of this week could tear Iraq apart."
Can you believe it? Well, I hope the U.N. folks are delivering the message while they have their hands on their hips and stomping their feet to get the rowdy Iraqis' attention. They're "warning that the carnage of this week could tear Iraq apart." Really? My, my. I bet the Iraqis didn't know that and now that they do, they'll stop their murderous behavior and act like the little angels we know they really are. We all know they don't want to tear their precious country apart because they are people who respect life and property.
Get real, U.N. If you don't have the guts to put a gun in the Iraqis' faces and pull the trigger if they don't tow the line, then do us a favor and go bake cookies or help elderly ladies cross the street. Geez.
