UN Nitwit Condemns NATO, Seeks Peace With Taliban


When we last read about UN dimwit Louise Arbour, the High Commissioner of Human Rights, she was condemning the dreaded Islamophobia of Europeans and sucking up to Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, so it comes as no surprise this twit would pander to the Taliban while harshly criticizing NATO forces in Afghanistan.
The UN High Commissioner for Human Rights has expressed alarm at the number of civilian casualties caused by international forces in Afghanistan.

Speaking at the end of a six-day visit to the country, Louise Arbour said the casualties were eroding public trust.

She also called for greater safeguards in the way Nato-led forces transferred their detainees into Afghan custody.

Earlier, Oxfam said half of the 1,200 civilian deaths this year were caused by international and Afghan troops.

The UK-based international aid agency also criticised the way aid was distributed in Afghanistan, saying that too much was provided in ways that were ineffective or inefficient.
It gets worse.
But while she criticised insurgents for using suicide bombings and human shields, Ms Arbour said public opinion was clear - there was a higher expectation of international forces to do everything possible to avoid killing or injuring civilians.
Despicable. This idiot sees no difference between savage killers and those striving to bring Afghanistan into the modern era.
"In law, all sides are held to the same international standards," she said.

"In public opinion... there's an expectation, in a sense higher expectations on behalf of international forces. That being said, the legal standard is exactly the same."
For good measure, she also suggest peace talks with the Taliban death cult.
Ms Arbour also said she would support starting peace talks with insurgent groups such as the Taleban.

"Having gained on their security, [people] would crave the freedom that I think, since 2001, has started in little bits to flourish in the democratic system here," she said.

"Now, if all anti-government forces could be brought into the fold of the democratic process, that's the ultimate good-case scenario."
There just is no reasoning with such stupidity.
