UN Speeches

It’s speech season at the General Assembly. So as a service to my readers, here are links to three of the speeches I’ve found most entertaining:

George Bush
United States
Mahmoud Ahmadinejad
Iran
Hugo Chavez
Venezuela

Next, starting Friday, we’ll have Ryder Cup coverage. So much good entertainment is scheduled for this week.

  1. I found “Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s” to be very scarey.

    P.S. Golf season winding down - is it time to hunker down and *shudder* spent quality time with the wife? ;-)

  2. Ha! Surely you’re kidding. We have one final golf orgy coming — Tom is coming to town tomorrow evening for about 72 hours of golf, sightseeing, golf, Ryder Cup (after dark only!), golf, and more golf.

    In fact, I better go post something about the Ryder Cup …

  3. It’s interesting to hear about what Egypt’s Jamal Mubarak was saying today — that Egypt is pursuing nuclear power. I heard about this on Juan Cole just now.

    It seems inevitable that one of Israel’s enemies will have nukes eventually. I think that’s going to usher in a new era in the Mideast. I’m not sure what it will look like, but things will change when there’s more than one nuclear threat in the region.
