UN team to investigate weapons smuggling; smugglers laughing uproariously

Posted on 05/25/2007 by Meryl Yourish

Try not to laugh. Really.

The United Nations plans to send experts to Lebanon to examine reported incidents of illegal weapons smuggling from Syria into Lebanon, Israel Radio reported on Thursday.

The team will rate local security forces’ abilities to prevent the smuggling and will stay in Lebanon for two weeks.

UN Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon decided to send the team following a request made by the Security Council.

I love it when the JPost puts these little blurbs in. I find they say more in three paragraphs than many other newspapers say in thirty.

Plus, I get to mock the story. Not the JPost. The content.

    Thank God the UN is involved. Everything will be okay now.

    Lovely. I wonder if the UN won’t see the Iraqi poison-gas weapons that they didn’t see Saddam shipping to Syria just before the US invaded.

    Once a few of the weapons that the U.N. is refusing to see go boom, perhaps they will “take action”.
