Subject: RE: BS: WMDs, Iran and Bush
"Stigweard has posted in a very creative way the truth and nothing but the truth to the effect of giving a wrong impression."

Much as I would like to take credit for being a creative disseminator of misinformation, the actual truth is not as flattering. I did of course cut and paste the list, and I left the Russian vote bit in out of laziness as I've had a busy day and problems with a blocked drain and sewage overflow in my back garden (This makes reading BB's hysterical defense of Monkey Boy's actions a bit like smellyvision - you can smell the shite as you read).

My intention was to illustrate how the list gives a general idea of the way the US votes on the various issues before the UN - in a manner bordering on cynical and with a general disdain/ignorance/lack of moral integrity and above all hypocrisy that is quite impressive to observe (unless you're born a Palestinian, and therefore and an object of particular revulsion to US politicians it seems).

For instance . . . 1987 Opposition to the development of new weapons of mass destruction - vetoed! Unless you're the US of course, in which case, fill your boots with weapons-grade plutonium!
