ANNE BAYEFSKY has details:
From whom did the U.N. get advice? There was Tariq Ramadan of Switzerland’s Fribourg University, who was denied entry to the U.S. in August on the basis of a law concerning aliens who have used a “position of prominence within any country to endorse or espouse terrorist activity” or are considered a “public safety risk or a national security threat.” But apparently the U.N. thought it was worth listening to the views on racism of someone who said on Sept. 25, 2001, that “[Osama] Bin Laden is perhaps a useful straw man, like Saddam Hussein, whose diabolical representation perhaps serves other geo-strategic, economic or political designs.”
Can someone plese tell me why we’re still making nice with these people? Why are we still in the UN? How many times do they need to prove themselves as useless?
