There is no doubt that this article refers to what can only be described as a tragedy of monumental proportions. My sympathies are with the bereaved families of UN members killed in that horrific attack. The article states in part: "More than 500 U.N. staff marched (sic) silently in a memorial outside U.N. headquarters, several carrying signs reading "Never Let It Happen Again -- No Security, No Deployment," "How Many More Must Die?" and "Senior Officials Must Answer." " In addition, our local CBS affiliate, KPIX in San Francisco, just aired videotape of the marchers, two of whom were carrying signs that clearly read "Never Again". In light of the UN stance on terrorism (or lack thereof) and the overbearing attitude exhibited by Kofi Anan and the majority of third world UN member states towards Israel I would like to respectfully suggest that next year these marchers get their own damn slogan.
