Is the United Nations getting better or worse? Consider its near term future.
Four candidates have been put forward to serve as the next Secretary General of the UN.
Michelle Bachelet or Chile and Rafael Grossi of Argentina.
Bachelet was, to put it politely, a terrorist. The former president of Chile and former UN Commissioner for Human Rights. She had links to the Marxist-Leninist terror group, the Manuel Rodríguez Patriotic Front, and the country’s Communists backed her regime.
The Chilean Communist Party, which for decades was outlawed under the Augusto Pinochet dictatorship, is making a high-profile comeback with its backing of former President Michelle Bachelet for a new term in office.
Not since the 1970 to 1973 administration of President Salvador Allende have the Communists joined a coalition to support a candidate. If Bachelet wins next year’s election – as most polls tip her to do – the communists will return to La Moneda presidential palace 40 years after the bloody overthrow of Allende.
You don’t need to think too hard to imagine her position on Islamic terrorism.
And then there’s Rafael Grossi, who gets this potential promotion as a reward for doing such a great job as the director general of the International Atomic Energy Agency, by allowing Iran to develop its nuclear program.
The UN is about to get even worse.
