FINE LINE REPEATEDLY CROSSED
Since a new reporting system was introduced last year, the UN has investigated—wait for it—295 complaints of sexual abuse against its amusingly-named peacekeeping forces. Further cases are expected:
It could take several more years to reform the system fully, says Jordan’s UN envoy who last year urged changes.
In 2005 the UN admitted that allegations of sexual abuse and exploitation by UN staff had more than doubled—but, as enlightened and sensitive UN officials pointed out, there is often a fine line between forced and willing sex.
And I’m sure UN officials would also point out that there’s a fine line between serial human rights abusers and those holding seats on the UN Human Rights Commission.
Or between corrupt, murderous charlatans like Yassir Arafat and real statesmen.
Or between thug regimes like Zimbabwe or North Korea and free market democracies of the West.
Or between Israel and the Nazis . . .
I could go on. Long and short of it—these scoudrels have turned the language of morality upside down.
It could take several more years to reform the system fully, says Jordan’s UN envoy who last year urged changes.
“I have just been told the problem is solved!” he announced later. “All the goats are pregnant!”

...fine line between forced and willing sex.
Oh, just tell ‘em to put some ice on it. (hey, it worked for Bill)

... but when they do, they’ll have a rape-free peacekeeping force. Won’t that be great?

And as soon as I can teach them how to operate lighters and throw bottles, we’ll have some molotovs for y’asses too!
Posted by Stoop Davy Dave on 2006 02 25 at 06:37 PM • permalinkStoop—That’s actually your mission statement. We NEED the goats mobilized. Why do you think we left you in that costume so long?
Posted by richard mcenroe on 2006 02 25 at 07:09 PM • permalinkWell if THAT’s what you wanted, why didn’t you put, you know, a fly in the front? Plus aesthetically I gotta admit, even to me, these nanny goats lack a certain je ne sais hotness, if you will, so I want a MUCH larger ration of ouzo. Yes ouzo, the “beer goggles” just ain’t goggly enough! And NO SODA, do you hear?
Posted by Stoop Davy Dave on 2006 02 25 at 09:09 PM • permalinkStoop, I’d hold out for Sumerian mead if I were you.
Posted by Michael Lonie on 2006 02 25 at 11:03 PM • permalinkStoop — wronwright assured us you didn’t need a fly in front…
And you know, it’s not that fine a line. It’s all of 7.62mm wide…
Posted by richard mcenroe on 2006 02 25 at 11:46 PM • permalinkGuys, I’m nearly choking on my apple, here. Please!
Brian, SDD, you are killing me!Posted by Nilknarf Arbed on 2006 02 26 at 10:24 PM • permalinkVery well, bipeds, let it not be said that I did not seek the path of reconciliation, the path of peace, the way of enlightenment, and all that cheap shit, nay let them not be said, those things.
Listen carefully, and you can hear the first rumblings of the uprising to come. From Durkadurkadurkastan to Outer Wyoming; from Zimbabwe to ... uh, to that other continent, the growing awareness of goatdom is awakening! “Two legs good”? I’ve gotcher “two legs good” dangling pendulously from my straining groin, you speciesist biped scum! The time is now! ARISE MY BILLY BRETHREN AND NANNY SISTREN! Throw off your shackles!! Let Operation Shub-Niggurath be implemented!“All the goats are pregnant!”
Indeed! NYAHAHAHAHAHAHA kaf kef koff HAHAHA!!!

No wonder UN staff can’t ever be bothered to deal with Iran.
They’re all trapped in a perpetual post-coital malaise.
