Readworthies is up...

and worth a look. I’m particularly disheartened by the Oil for Food scandal in the U.N. What major world crisis has the U.N. averted, much less resolved? It’s appears increasingly to me to be a corrupt, crony-ridden old boys club. Re-calling Trudeau (and others) play nicey-nicey with these people trying to get a sinecure in the U.N. now fills me with sorrow. How far has it fallen since the dreams of the forties.

And whatever inspired the writer(s) to make Wesley Snipes a super-duper U.N. agent in The Art of War? He would have been better being from U.N.C.L.E. Does anybody remember that pleasant fantasy?
