U.N. Investigation

The report is out and it apparently shows what everyone expected, Syrian and Lebanese involvement in the assassination. All has not gone seamless unfortunately. Reports are out that some parts were deleted prior to it's release to the U.N. While I understand why this was done, fairness to the accused who have not been convicted, this can't be a good thing for the image of integrity that is trying to be upheld. The Syrians have predictably denied the accuracy of the findings and the U.S. is calling for action from the U.N.

I have come to conclude that dirty pool is the rule rather than the exception in politics globally, some worse, some better, but none totally clean. Have we not yet reached the point where the people are going to take back the power and hold all our leaders accountable for the actions, lack of them, and deceptions carried out on their own people. Oh, and George, while I recognize that you may not have the intellectual capacity to really know what your own staff is up to, I still hold you responsible for getting in way over your head!
