To save the world, first save the UN
John Bolton, forthright American envoy to the UN, tells Jasper Gerard Britain has to swing behind reform prontoIf you consider Donald Rumsfeld the unacceptable face of American power, you probably havent met John Bolton. Even muscular rightwingers at the Centre for Policy Studies, whom the American ambassador to the United Nations addressed in London last week, squirmed like cheese-eating surrender monkeys when he seemed to suggest countries such as Ethiopia should have reduced voting rights at the UN because they are stingy with their budgetary contributions. But Bolton, appointed by President Bush in defiance of Congress, has one virtue even his greatest detractors could not dispute: he shoots straight. If you want to know how America really sees the world, listen to Bolton. Posted by: ryuge 2006-06-11 |
