#1 The study was provided to The New York Times by a person unaffiliated with the United Nations who was concerned about the governmentâs plan to expand summary deportations to the countryâs land borders.

Yeah, right. Sounds like the reporter's illegal immigrant ~~slave~~ domestic servant 'fetched' the report from Koffi's assistant and provided it to the reporter.

This basically shows that the U.N. cannot be trusted to keep up its end of an agreement. They agreed not to make it public and, as a result of their (possibly deliberate) lack of security the report was leaked.

#2 Tough shit, UN. Inspectors have a right ot be suspicious of asylum-seekers. ANYONE can scream that they want asylum. Until someone can come up with a sure-fire way to determine whether someone seeking asylum is legit, I'll give the inspectors the benefit of the doubt.

#5 You know, I wouldn't squeal too loudly if the next terrorist bomb in New York City hit the United Nations building. Anywhere else, it's gonna be brutal for Arab society, but the UN - I'd have to think long and hard...

Kofi, or some other UN guy: America is provoking blah blah blah...disrespecting phony asylum claimants...blah blah...blah
Pat Sejak: Oh, so sorry, Kofi, the UN just lost $1m in US funding. Would you like to spin again?

#10 http://www.fas.org/irp/world/iraq/956-tni.htm
ON SEPTEMBER 1, 1992, Ramzi Yousef arrived at JFK airport. He presented an Iraqi passport without a U.S. visa, was briefly detained (and fingerprinted) for illegal entry, and granted asylum pending a hearing. Yousef went to stay at the apartment of Musab Yasin, an Iraqi living in Jersey City. So too did Abdul Rahman Yasin, Musab's younger brother, who arrived in America from Iraq soon after Yousef. (Musab had an unlisted telephone number under an Israeli-sounding alias, Josie Hadas.)

#11 What I think is the most dangerous gambit is the persecuted ethnic minority gambit. The world is full of ethnic minorities. A person's membership in one of them is hard to establish or debunk, especially in countries like Iran where our government has no relations.

I am all for internment camps for assylum seekers. A very high percentage of the world hates us. While VISA holding visitors can be allowed to wander about within the restrictions of their VISA, letting undocumented folk loose on the streets is a security disaster. Allowing Kofi to cajole us into an action that works for him but is suicidal for us is a non-starter.
