#1 I thought hunting down terrorists and doing terrible things to them WAS prevention.

#2 Javer Solana and Kofi Annan 2 of the biggest enablers of terrorism going. A meeting of experts? Just how many terrorist attacks have these experts stopped? How many terrorists have these experts locked and/or killed? Crickets? I thought so.

#3 It is oddly satisfying to know how predictable and utterly insensate the Socialist / Tranzi voices are. Buttercup never misses his mark or varies from the script. And every utterance of such idiocy as this helps cement the understanding among Americans that the UN is an enemy organization with which we share no values or goals. Keep it up, Buttercup.

#4 Yes, of course we must wipe out terrorism, whatever that is, as we have not defined it yet, but let's try to be nice about it, okay? Fifteen or twenty more conferences on it and we might have an idea about how we maybe might want to go about possibly doing something about it.
Waiter! This steak is undercooked! Send it back!

#5 SPOD - These are experts at enabling, ignoring, and sponsoring terrorism.

Plus you also have to have experts on holding conferences, proper 'dining' at 5 star hotels, experts at determining the right 'tip' to leave (in order to give just the right impression). Experts on table and seating arrangements (you wouldn't want to offend the muslims or arab by having them sit within 50' of a jew or black for example). Catering experts. Wine experts. etc...

And of course experts on kissing ass, hiring members of the 'sex industry', etc....

#6 "...human rights and the rule of law must always be respected..."
Tell that to the WTC terrorists and the Madrid terrorists. Tell that to the Taliban and to the Saddam thugs that filled those mass graves in Iraq. Tell that to the fanatics developing missiles and nuclear weapons in Iran and North Korea. What have you done for us lately, Kofi?

#7 The four-day conference is sponsored by the Club de Madrid, which is comprised of 56 former presidents and prime ministers. Delegates have worked since Tuesday on research panels trying to identify causes of terrorism and to propose solutions. Their recommendations, including a proposed UN definition of terrorism, will be refined into guidelines called the "Madrid Agenda" that conference participants plan to take back to their governments.

Just another UN-sponsored circle jerk.

#8 I can't wait for Bolton to "engage" these "statesmen" in a "dialogue".

I'm stocking up on popcorn now.
