Khofi Annan's Message - I

Khofi Annan's Message - I listened to the first ten minutes of his speech at the UN this morning.

The gist of the nub: We must act multilaterally, because...multilateralism is required.

Unintentional hilarity - Annan ascribed the liberation of Kuwait to multilateral action. He neglected to mention that the UN needed to be dragged to that action, kicking and screaming, and that the real multilateral action was on the part of the US-built coalition - not a UN-sanctioned force.

Current waiting to hear the President's speech.
