Secretary-General Calls Apathy Democracy’s Most Insidious Enemy (Press Release), SG/SM/15270, OBV/1255
Note
The UN celebrated International Day of Democracy - the usual stuff, they talk, victims of non-democracies suffer. But this year's contribution of UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon was particularly ridiculous. With millions in the Arab streets, and millions more jailed, tortured and dying for attempting to achieve democracy around the world, Ban focused in on this: "apathy has become democracy's most insidious enemy..." Well it saved him from mentioning democracy's actual #1 enemies like Iran, China, Russia...
