Annan warns against 'wave of death' in Pakistan
2005-10-20
UN Secretary General Kofi Annan on Wednesday made a dramatic appeal for urgent help from the world community for Pakistan to prevent a second massive wave of deaths in the wake of the recent earthquake. Annan told reporters that an estimated three million people were homeless with no blankets or tents to protect them from the merciless Himalayan winter. "That means a second, massive wave of death will happen if we do not step up our efforts now," he added.
The Brutal Afghan Winter™ moves east...

#10  What does he need with AWACS anyway? Protect against drones looking for terror agenst in the highlands?

Wait a minute? Don't children die every hour in Pakistan because an earthquake hit?

Hmmm....

Priorities, priorities.......

#9  But Pakistan signed a billion dollar deal today to purchase AWACS aircraft from Sweden.

Clearly there is no humanitarian emergency

#8  "... an estimated three million people were homeless with no blankets or tents to protect them from the merciless Himalayan winter.."

and they still have another 10 days or so of fasting for Ramadan

In some sense, you could say many of these people are dying from the disease of Islam.

#7  Agreed Anon! I'm sad to admit, I don't care if the death toll continues to rise. Heavy suffering like in Aceh deplete the enemies will to fight when they have no homes, food or means of survival. Their God did not protect them nor does he shed his grace on them. Throw away the Koran an join the 21st century. In return you'll get foreign investment, job opportunities and a better life for your family.

#6  The great thing about this wave of death is it kills large numbers of our Islamofascist enemies.

Surfs up!

#4  Nothing irks Kofi so much as a wave of death with no profit potential.

#3  translation: Send money to me so that my son Kojo can set up a shell company to line my and Chirac's pockets. We will be sending peacekeepers soon, as we see good potential for brothels of desperate, hungry young women and boys, whom we have not yet infected with aids. Oh, and send us aid money for the aids crisis too. We'd be glad to line our pockets with that too.

#1  Yet the "wave of death" Pakistan has spawned with its terrorist madrasahs and nuclear proliferation warrants nary a peep from this hypocritical maggot. Rot in endless hell, Kofi.
