| Kofi: "Iran has offered to help US leave Iraq |
| 2006-09-13 |
UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan during his recent trip to the region that the US-led invasion of Iraq and its aftermath were "a real disaster," Annan told reporters Wednesday.  "Most of the leaders I spoke to felt the invasion of Iraq and its aftermath has been a real disaster for them," Annan said. "They believe it has destabilized the region." Iran offered to help the United States leave, Annan said, though he refused to elaborate. |

| #26 Meanwhile, Saddam's boyz continually firing at UNO-sponsored recce aircraft over Iraq = UN protected "no fly zones" enhances/promotes UNO credibility to no end. |

| #25 This is outrageous. Cut the UN contribution now. |

| #23 Reminds me of an unsolicited remark that a feller from Nairobi offered to me during a flight from Japan: "Africans are just useless at Government." When we do march out of Iraq, it ought to be through Tehran and Qom. |

| #22 He's the consummate African boneheaded communist. The continent is full of them. Bingo! |

| #21 I do wish someone would bump this idiot off on a "dark and stormy night". His license to consume oxygen ran out following Rwanda. Someone needs to enforce some "natural laws" around here... |

| #20 I'd bet a donk publicly agrees with him and lauds him for his wisdom before the day is out. |

| #18 Serious question. What the fuck is wrong with this guy? Is he naive, stupid, retarded or the most corrupt bastard on the planet? |

| #16 ." Iran offered to help the United States leave, Annan said, though he refused to elaborate. If it's through Iran, we should think about it. The UN should be in SUDAN right now, so they can look out thier window and say "See, no problems here a little oil for food can't handle" |

| #15 Everything rises and falls on leadership. The UN has been in the habit of appointing Secretary Generals who are America-hating Asshats for quite some time now. Thus, it has lost any relevance. If they want to continue, fine, but it shouldn't be on American soil. |

| #14 This person truly must live in an alternate world from the rest of us, becusae the scum has not an iota of shame. The assholery that passes for speech from him always astounds me for it's actual cluelessness. Kofi GTFO and be gone. |

| #13 You're right, Silentbrick. I humbly and abjectly apologize to all turds everywhere. |
| Posted by: Zenster 2006-09-13 13:57 |
| #12 Now Zen, you're insulting turds. Turds are formed through normal, natural processes and serve a purpose. Kofi satisfies neither of those requirements. He's more along the lines of Mad Cow Disease. You know, the scummy residue left on the bottom of the gene pool after it's empty. |

| #11 According to all natural and scientific law, this asshole's head is supposed to explode when he says outrageous shit like this. Someone needs to help things along with this terrorist facilitating turd. |

| #10 Iran offering us help is like the Nazis offering the Jews "help" in leaving Poland. The UN is a joke. Kick them out, stop funding them, and make a League of Nations again - this time acall it hte Leage if FREE Nations - with qualifications for voting, such as economic activity, free and open elections, etc. Mugabe the Mullahs and Kim et al, need not apply except as supplicants or targets. Leadership is provided by vote - and money is the terms of the vote: whomever writes the biggests checks (like a corporation - biggest stockholders hold sway). |

| #9 I think the UN ought to relocate to someplace more in line with its current relevance, Gaza City. Think of all the poor starving Paleos they could put on the payroll. Of course the normal UN rules concerning exploiting the local female population might cause a few problems. |

| #8 I'll gladly help the UN leave the US. Where would they go? To HELL would suit me just fine. Their seats are already reserved there - it won't hurt a thing if they arrive a little early. |

| #7 Kofi says the (3 year old) US invasion of Iraq has been a real disaster. Whereas Kofi's (then 12 year old) Oil for Food program had been a stunning success. Iran has offered to help the USA leave Iraq. Allow me to offer to help anyone wishing to see the UN leave the USA. We'll be better off in the long run. |

| #6 I think it was part of Bush's plan to stir up stuff in this region, giving them a chance to make some changes. Sounds like it's working. |

| #5 I don't suppose he cared to talk to the Iraqi people. Of course not! Only his Muslim masters. |

| #4 "Most of the leaders I spoke to felt the invasion of Iraq and its aftermath has been a real disaster for them," Annan said. The hysterical part is the "for them" at the end of that sentence, LOL. I don't doubt this in the least, especially when you consider who he went to see, such as Syria and Iran. |

| #3 In a similar vein, I want to "help" the staff at the local Ferrari dealership to leave. I'll hang around to look after things. |

| #2 Destabilized? No. Upset the dictator's status quo? Yes. STFU Kofi. No one likes you anymore. |

| #1 I bet they did. The UN is a real disaster. Iran is just becoming a pariah. You are fired Kofi. Pack your bags and leave. |
