<p>Its the tough one with the UN, they can send peacekeepers, who will run away & leave you to be ethnically cleansed. Or stay and rape you.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>And then probably run away</p> -

Sometimes the first UN troops sent in are from a first world country , when people stop giving a shit about a crisis in a country they will never go to the troops from dumps that send troops overseas for money turn up and the raping and corrupt behaviour begins. -

<p>As usual it took him an age to make a decision but PM Turnbull has just announced that he will not back Rudd for job. I doubt the rest of the world realise the enormity of the bullet they just dodged.</p>

<p></p><p></p><blockquote class="ipsBlockquote">Rudd <span>issued a statement on Friday via Facebook</span> saying it was a pity the government had declined to support his candidacy “as the Hawke government supported Malcolm Fraser for the post of secretary general of the Commonwealth, or the Howard government supported Gareth Evans to be head of Unesco.†</blockquote>

<p>Classic Rudd delusions of grandeur. The lack of an endorsement says more about Rudd than it does Turnbull. He made this bed a long time ago and you must concur with Turnbull that there is a very high probability that he would fall into the same terrible habits he had in parliament. I have no doubt if this was Crean, Beasly, Macklin or even Swann that they would be rubber stamped by Turnbull and the cabinet.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Even within politics Rudd was such a dirtbag that honour among thieves doesn't apply to him. If I'm Turnbull I counter-offer him an ambassadorship to Syria, and Rudd is probably cocky enough to take it and think he can solve the situation.</p> -
KRudd coming out with some "but but but... " statements summing up again why NOBODY wanted him anywhere near the job.<br><br>
A little bit of politicking by Labor about how the Libs shouldn’t exclude him on party lines safe in the knowledge that they would NEVER back him. -

<p>Yes! This is the guy you decided wasn't fit to be PM after less than 2 years in the job then absolutely tore to shreds in The Killing Season and similar interviews. Good job guys.</p>
