U.N. Orders All Flags Lowered To Half-Staff To Mourn North Korean Mass Murderer Kim Jong Il…

It’s not like he murdered millions of people . . . no, wait, yes he did.

(Reuters) — U.N. offices around the world lowered their flags to half-staff to mark the funeral of North Korean leader Kim Jong-il on Wednesday in a move the world body said was routine but which prompted objections from some human rights activists.

In New York, where the flag outside U.N. headquarters was lowered, spokesman Eduardo del Buey said the gesture had been requested by Pyongyang’s U.N. mission but was normal for the funeral of any head of state. [...]

But UN Watch, a Geneva-based advocacy group, said the U.N. human rights message was “at serious risk of being blurred today” because of the honoring of Kim, who died on December 17.

“Today should be a time for the U.N. to show solidarity with the victims — the millions of North Koreans brutalized by Kim’s merciless policies of starvation, torture and oppression — and not with the perpetrator,” the group’s executive director, Hillel Neuer, said in a statement.

    MY flag better not be put at half-staff for ANY foreign “leader.” I pledge allegiance to that flag – not to any man. Especially THAT one!

    The “UN flag” can be lowered for whatever they want – somewhere other than here. GET OUT!

    They did about the same when the infamous YASSIR(THATS MY BABY)ARAFAT died and that sniveling little worm JIMMY CARTER wanted americans to fly their flags at halfstaff. I suppose theyll do the same when FIDEL CASTRO dies SCREW THE STUPID UN,SCREW KOFFI ANANN,SCREW JIMMY CARTER,SCREW KIM JONG,

    Goes to show:

    Those pulling the strings at the U.N. long to rule the entire planet with the same totalitarian control as Kim Jong-il ruled N.K.

    Well, they let the guy into the UN in the first place, so they have to honor his passing.

    Disgusting. No flags at half staff for Qaddafi who killed less than 1% than the N. Korean leader has. The next president needs to close the doors on the U.N. They would rather fight imaginary battles with climate change than to confront actual killers of innocent people.

    Obviously if I was a dictator in training I’d have been doing it all wrong. Just kill lots of people, and in general be the most evil bastard around while building the most evil weapons possible. And when I die, the idiots of the world will heap praises upon me, and lavish my corpse with gifts. I’ll live forever, and those peons will never forget me then!

    If one of the republican candidates says he’s throwing the UN out and defunding them I’m voting for him. That would make up my mind for me.

    I hate Realpolitik, but if there was ever a time for the *spit* UN to make nice with the norks, it’s now. Young new leader and all that.
    Just don’t even think of lowering my flag Bambi.
