#1 canceled a trip to the African Union in Ethiopia

Too few five star restaurants.

#3 Can't decide what "message they should convey".

Not surprised. UNSC is an islamic tool and firmly on the side of the islamists. Trouble is the UN resolution they're supposed to be implementing is against their islamist friends. That leaves a simple trip with everybody on the council heading out for drinks and dinner.

#4 Rantburg should create a "Useless Waste of Time and Energy" department for issues like this. The UN will do nothing of account for Darfur.

#5 A divided U.N. Security Council on Friday abruptly canceled a trip to the African Union in Ethiopia to discuss a future force in Darfur after failing to agree on what they could talk about, diplomats said.

Unreported was the only point of unanimous agreement: Sudan doesn't have sufficient plunderable wealth or resources, rendering further unSecurity Council attempts to reach consensus as to whether or not to intervene in the slaughter, unworthy of the effort.

#6 If they want to go to Ethopian restaurants, they should visit the Adams-Morgan neighborhood in DC.

On second thought, please stay home.
