Note
Commemorating the Rwandan genocide, UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon announces that the UN is "monitor[ing] the world for signs of the crime's precursors." Considering the President of Iran openly calls for genocide against the Jewish state, and is never stopped from taking a UN microphone to spew hatred at any UN gathering he likes, the boast is hard to defend. Ban Ki-moon says UN "human rights mechanisms play a critical early warning role." But there is no shortage of warnings from Ahmadinejad. The Secretary-General just isn't listening.
