#1 The UN catches on to the drug money - Taliban / AlQ connection. Doesn't this deserve at least one F**kin Duh?

"The next 18 to 24 months are going to be critical..."
How, uh, um, er, obvious. This reminds me of the Naisbitt / MegaTrends BS. When is the next 18-24 months of your life (or a country's life) not critical? Every step taken limits the options available at the next step... and if a step is mistaken, you usually don't know it until many steps later. That's the problem with those goddamned humans: they want life to be serial, when reality runs in parallel! In programmer-speak, this would be the procedural model vs. the event-driven model. Anyway, it's a jewel of disingenuous diplo-speak, so let's give this UN whiz another F**kin Duh, shall we?

"allow the narco-economy to become ingrained..."
And, uh, it isn't already? Oh, that must be his next revelation. He's saving it for when he needs another contract or grant, I guess. F**kin Duh.

Pledging money to the UN who would hand it to people such as Costa to administer would be remarkably foolish. He's way back there learning the primer, fully believing he's blazing a new trail, it seems... F**kin Dope. The UN. Pfeh.
