Note to Kofi “The Magnificent”: UN Security Council Resolution 1559 - to end Syrian Occupation - was passed in September 2004. By unanimous vote, with 6 abstentions, it called for the “strict respect of Lebanon’s sovereignty, territorial integrity, unity, and political independence under the sole and exclusive authority of the Government of Lebanon throughout the country.”
As a result of the recent assassination of former Lebanese Prime Minister Hariri many are now calling for the current pro-Syrian Lebanese government to resign.
So Kofi, wouldn’t it be an opportune time to call for the withdrawal of the 15,000 Syrian troops from Lebanese soil and enforce Resolution 1559?

I’d say it would be an opportune time. But I suspect Kofi and his gang wouldn’t.
They don’t dare call for a resolution to be enforced if there’s any chance the US might take it seriously and feel obliged to enforce it ourselves.
Sigh…

Kofi and his Ugly Nations has that knack for Inane hot air that smells like hydrogen sulphide.
