nner City Press pointed out that several Security Council resolutions about Kosovo had referred to Serbia's territorial integrity, before that integrity was dismissed earlier this year. Wolff responded that Serbian territorial integrity was surrendered earlier, with Russia's approval, when resolutions were passed calling for the withdrawal of Serbian military forces from Kosovo, and turning over authority in Kosovo to the United Nations. Video here.

One really needs to be a bloody bastard to say this.I hope cancer will it him to the last cell.

Here is bloody resolution 1244 saying:

http://www.nato.int/Kosovo/docu/u990610a.htm

Reaffirming the commitment of all Member States to the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia and the other States of the region, as set out in the Helsinki Final Act and annex 2,

Reaffirming the call in previous resolutions for substantial autonomy and meaningful self-administration for Kosovo,

While I agree with your point completely, it's worth pointing out that there are a lot of UN resolutions on Israel that aren't adhered to by Israel or the USA.

by and large the UN is only as effective as the superpowers want it to be. Right now, that only seems to be when the UN agrees with them, but not when it rules against them.

keep to the Fen Causeway

I understand that but what makes me furious is that they are calling Russia to respect international law and UN rules that they, USA, simply do not give a rat ass to respect. It's beyond hypocrisy. It's perverse Do they think that we (world population) are ALL morons?

I can't even put together a coherent rant on it. Or a suitably incoherent one.
