Some South Korean guy I never heard of before Ban Ki-moon. His main goals are to fix Lebanon and Darfur first of all and he refuses to answer whether or not he thinks the US invasion of Iraq was illegal unlike his predecessor Kofi "I don't give a crap" Annan.

He vows reform of the inept UN and approves sanctions against North Korea and Iran.

Thought this was impressive. It was the proper response, which is refreshing. I kind of wonder if it's a lot like when people flipped out over Gulliani after 9/11 when really he was just doing his job. This is what he's supposed to do! Preserving world harmony can not be about placating the whims of psychotic men.

New UN chief denounces Iran for denying Holocaust, threatening Israel

By Reuters
UNITED NATIONS - Incoming United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon told Iran on Thursday it was unacceptable to deny that the Holocaust took place or to call for Israel to be wiped off the map.

Ban was responding to a question asked at a news conference about Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who since coming to power in August last year has caused an outcry by terming the Holocaust a “myth” and calling Israel a “tumor” in the Middle East.

Ahmadinejad just ended a two-day international conference on the Holocaust that was dominated by speakers who questioned the extermination of 6 million Jews by the Nazis in World War Two.

“Denying historical facts especially on such an important subject as the Holocaust is just not acceptable,” Ban said.

“Nor is it acceptable to call for the elimination of states or people,” Ban said. “I would like to see this fundamental principle respected in both rhetoric and practice by all the members of the international community.”

Seriously, it's ridulous enough that they wear white sheets, but how can you expect to be taken seriously under the moniker of "Grand wizard"?

Anyways, I certainly agree that if we keep acting like we afraid of these dictators and try to establish peace by stepping over eggshells and giving into their threats, they are the ones that win and we only gain a false sense of security.
