    Default "20/20" tonight: United Nations as harborer of rapists & pedophiles in the Congo.

    "20/20" to have a segment tonight about UN peacekeeping soldiers in the Congo raping young girls, youngest I've heard of was age eleven. A teenager, age fourteen who was going to a well for water, raped by one peacekeeping soldier while another looked on. A French general, running a pedophile ring.

    The harboring of the murderers from Rwanda, who continue to murder in the Congo. But no apparent concern from the UN over this problem.

    I know what I'll be watching tonight.

    Well, you can tell that the Dan Rather 60 minutes fiasco did have a lasting effect on US mainstream media - otherwise this story would never have seen the light of day !

    But no apparent concern from the UN over this problem
    Most UN officials are occupied trying to cover their asses in the upcoming multi-billion dollar Iraqi Oil for Food scandal investigations to care about what's going on in an African country ! Most mainstream news media shys away from such stories as well since, from a European standpoint, they don't involve the USA and sound like 'sour grapes' when being reported by US sources.

    Now, female interrogators in Gitmo is an entirely different matter of course ! Apparently it's OK to rape and protect killers, but don't rub your boobs on anybody's back !

    Missed this...damn. Friggin' DSL installation ran late.

    What's the score?
