The Lord High Executioner visits Jerusalem and Ramallah

By David Singer - posted Wednesday, 31 March 2010


Wafted by a favouring gale
As one sometimes is in trances,
To a height that few can scale,
Save by long and weary dances.

Few can indeed ascend to the dizzying heights to which the Secretary-General of the United Nations can lay claim.

However, that position carries with it the responsibility to be very careful about what he says. Being scrupulously honest and unbiased, especially when it comes to the provisions of the United Nations Charter that he is sworn to uphold, is essential.

Wafted by a gale of Jew hatred that seeks the elimination of the Jewish State promised by the Mandate for Palestine and the United Nations Charter, the Secretary-General has become blinded to his obligations. If he wants to play the role of the Lord High Executioner and have people defer to and respect his pronouncements, the Secretary-General needs to be sure of his facts before chopping the head off his intended victim.
