Is The Czar Surprised?
Is he surprised that the UN made complete asses of themselves by letting Mahmoud Ahmadinejad address a conference on racism?
No, he is not, for Mahmoud Ahmadinejad did his whole embarrassing denial of the Holocaust routine again exactly as the Czar predicted.
In response, 20 UN delegates promptly walked out on him. The Czar is not sure why they were even there. After all, nine other countriesled by the United Statesnever even showed up to this tragic farce writ large. Those countries also included Israel, Canada, Australia, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Poland, and New Zealand. Basically, nine countries who seem to possess a real sense of how stupid the UN has become.
Said UN Secretary-General Ban KiMun, I fear that todays economic crisis, if not handled properly, could evolve into a full-scale political crisis marked by social unrest, weakened governments and [an] angry [public] who have lost faith in their leaders and their own future.
Yeah, but you know what doesnt help? Having a whack-job racist scumbag like Ahmadinejad allowed in a room with the international press talking about killing Jews on Hitlers birthday in a country that quite recently embraced open slavery and oppression of blacks. That this happened says one of two things, both of which may be true together: that the UN is an evil-minded leftist group devoid of any sense of ethics, or they are a bunch of morons. The Czar flipped a coin on this, and it landed on its side.
Yesterday, in Skokie, Illinois (a northern suburb of Chicago), the Illinois Holocaust Museum and Education Center opened to the public in time for Holocaust Remembrance Day. While the opening was a great success, the Czar was horrified to see that seven Neo-Nazis held a public protest simultaneously with the opening, waving their swastikas outside the museum doors.
At the Museums opening, keynote speaker was President Bill Clinton, who said It strikes me as not only appropriate but necessary that it is a place of both remembrance and education, because both are necessary to truly say never again.
He could just as easily have pointed to the seven neo-Nazis marching out front and said This is why a place like this is still necessary. We can say never again all we wantbut then we look to the UN, and see Ahmedinejads mocking face saying as soon as I can.

Божію Поспѣшествующею Милостію Мы, Дима Грозный Императоръ и Самодержецъ Всероссiйскiй, цѣсарь Московскiй. The Czar was born in the steppes of Russia in 1267, and was cheated out of total control of all Russia upon the death of Boris Mikhailovich, who replaced Alexander Yaroslav Nevsky in 1263. However, in 1283, our Czar was passed over due to a clerical error and the rule of all Russia went to his second cousin Daniil (Даниил Александрович), whom Czar still resents. As a half-hearted apology, the Czar was awarded control over Muscovy, inconveniently located 5,000 miles away just outside Chicago. He now spends his time seething about this and writing about other stuff that bothers him.
