UN under attack

Killing of a U.N. Observer in Congo Heightens a Mission's Fears

The UN Security Council has authorized 10 000 peacekeepers for MONUC, 5 000 of them stationed in Ituri Province where the incident mentioned occurred. According to the article, the killing has raised questions about the force strength. My first thought was of LGen Romeo Dallaire's indictment of the UN for consistently failing to provide adequate forces for UNAMIR.

Googling around I found this blog entry on the topic entitled "Trust Dallaire" which refers to an article in which Dallaire estimated 20 to 30 000 troops would be required.

The fundamental sense of freedom is freedom from chains, from imprisonment, from enslavement by others. The rest is extension of this sense, or else metaphor.

Money does not pay for anything, never has, never will. It is an economic axiom as old as the hills that goods and services can be paid for only with goods and services.

Civilization is the progress toward a society of privacy. The savages whole existence is public, ruled by the laws of his tribe. Civilization is the process of setting man free from men.

Men are deceived if they think themselves free, an opinion which consists only in this, that they are conscious of their actions and ignorant of the causes by which they are determined.
