    Corrupt systems need a flush button. When things get out of control, they flush the system and start again.

    Not a surprise they’re misogynists given current events. Putting Iran as the head of the UN human rights council is a joke. The UN needs to be dismantled completely.

    Por que a ONU nunca teve uma mulher no cargo de secretário-geral?

    A agenda 2030 não vale para a ONU?!?

    They started the Korean War in order to justify themselves after “going in and providing military support”. Of course the money flowed all the way back to the international banks.

    Most Australians are brainwashed to believe that the UN is only ever a good organization as there is never any bad news about it to be heard in the Media.

    I am the one who placed a Harassment complaint against my supervisor at WHO (World Hell Organization) in 2019, the investigation office reported that have opened the case and according to UN policy the outcome of the investigation must be reported back to compliant. But, nothing happened and of course my contract was not extended.

    The system he is talking about if it were to be weaponized, could it not be used against whistleblowers or against someone who is actually acting in good faith. Look at what America has done to Snowden by making him an enemy because he exposed their wrongdoings.

    Sexual harrassment is only the tip of the iceberg… the corruption runs deep within the UN, a hidden trail leading to the WEF Oligarchs.

    It seems that there is a lot of "emprovement" ado! Was it not enough organising and protecting human traffikers that forced women into prostitution through violencr and brutality? A lot of money in it isn't it? What about the young women abducted and forced to make babies human clones that are used for all sorts of illegal activities ranging from money laundering, frodes, impersonating important politicians, implanting fake evidences, confusing criminal investigations, experimenting new medications (a lot of money in that) etc. Moderna was quick at finding a vaccine is it not? a previous USA study had to shut down after 10 years researching a new vaccine based on DNA because after 5 years from inoculation all the laboratory animals were getting massive liver inflamations, caners etc.
    Lot of money is it not?

    I'm sure things happen. None the less, this video doesn't really give many details. So, more details and evidence would be useful. I'll check the documentary and see if it has those details.

    When someone begins saying 'What I can tell you …', there's a problem. But more than this, the UN really is not looking at the new ways to do what is most empowering for all.

    Somehow unsurprising in a multi-cultural group in which people are trying to find ways of relating and finding peace between countries, those circumstances make it difficult to say something to counsel members from societies that are brutal. I had an uncle that worked as a UN lawyer, it was not about power but a commitment to peace and a better world. There may be some jerks, or ignorance, but the majority only care about a better future. You don't get famous (rarely) working for this organization. I don't think they go to the UN as a safe place to be predatory, they just came from places where that attitude is considered normal and the other people don't know how to both negotiate and punish people at the same time. A difficult situation

    Regarding sins God Almighty is the judge to all mankind.
    Fornications and adultery are same .
    But
    Fornications that are within a family is very dangerous.
    Family values are good .
    Adultery is okay in a place if a mother or son relationship is honourable.
    Father or daughter.
    What ever ..
    I have seen or seeing fornication very common.
    To understand this you must read Corinthians .

    The UN is useless, remember that Ukrainian representative almost begging on his knees for UN and /or NATO intervention so his country does not get bombed to oblivion. Or how Russia gets to veto a vote after clearly starting a war? Or North Korea being head of the disarmament group while launching missiles towards other territories all the time

Published

Saudi Arabia has said the Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen will face “consequences” after a series of deadly attacks on Riyadh’s airport and other sites across the country.

Meanwhile, Houthi media reported an oil facility in the Yemeni capital Sanaa has been hit by Saudi-coalition forces.

And the head of MI5 said Iran is expanding a hybrid campaign in the UK, targeting Jewish communities and military bases.

Elsewhere, the International Monetary Fund said the global economy has dealt with the impacts of war in Iran better than expected, but warns that countries are running out of flexibility to tackle rising prices.

How rogue diplomats are impacting US relations | The Global Story

Published

on



A diplomat’s job is traditionally to represent their country’s interests while maintaining good relations with their host nation. But some of Donald Trump’s ambassadors are taking a different approach.

On Tuesday, Kimberly Guilfoyle resigned from her ambassadorship in Greece after serious allegations were raised about her conduct. According to reporting by the Wall Street Journal, the former fiancée of Donald Trump Jr. allegedly asked a Trump donor to pay off her $100,000 Amex bill — allegations she denies.

Guilfoyle is not the only ambassador to have caused a stir. US envoys around the world have sparked diplomatic rows, controversy and, in some cases, appeared to step beyond the traditional boundaries of their role.

What do Donald Trump’s ambassador picks, and their conduct, tell us about the new way that America does diplomacy?

Reuters’ senior White House correspondent, Humeyra Pamuk, breaks down how Trump’s ambassadors are breaking with tradition.

He said he told her, “You don’t have to do this”, after her debut in the briefing room earlier this week.

Zacharia has been treated “very, very badly” by the media in recent days, Trump told reporters outside the White House.
