a little difficult to know where to start with this comment. So I will restrict
myself to one simple observation and hope it is not too
obvious. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

problems that Mr Burgess rightly identifies result directly from . . .
. the policies and perspectives of generations of powerful people such as
Ambassador Bolton. Bolton's positions are, admittedly, particularly
raw and crude. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=322453206-30082005><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>The UN
is the way it is - deeply compromised and utterly ineffective - because it is
controlled and run by THE Member State, aided and abetted by the poodle state of
Tony Blair and by the G8 generally. This is not an unfortunate, unwanted state
of affairs at least from the perspective of the US, UK and G8. It is
deliberate policy of the powerful nations whose interest in the UN has never
been the improvement of the living conditions of the world's people but the
continued, unimpeded access to their resources and control of
their affairs.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
