UN "peacekeeper" pedophiles

BBC:

Children as young as six are being sexually abused by peacekeepers and aid workers, says a leading UK charity.

Children in post-conflict areas are being abused by the very people drafted into such zones to help look after them, says Save the Children.

After research in Ivory Coast, southern Sudan and Haiti, the charity said an international watchdog should be created to deal with the issue.

The UN has said it welcomes the report, which it will study closely.

Save the Children said the most shocking aspect of child sex abuse is that most of it goes unreported and unpunished, with children too scared to speak out.

A 13-year-old girl described to the BBC how 10 UN peacekeepers gang-raped her in a field near her Ivory Coast home, and left her bleeding, trembling and vomiting on the ground.

...

This is the third report this week on disgraceful conduct by UN peacekeepers. Earlier reports described the UN troops selling weapons to terrorist in the Congo and in Somalia. I have seen other reports on the pedophilia of these troops who are supposed to be protecting the vulnerable. There is probably enough material for a book on the subject.

  1. This is so unconscionable. I only hope that those in the position to do something about this, and have not, die a slow death. I am so disgusted at our UN "peacekeeping" joke that it is.... when will we learn not to throw money at the problem? When will we actually do something? Bring in the militias...bring in the funk. Thanks BILL CLINTON.

  2. THis is so unconscionable. I am ashamed at our "un" peace keeping efforts. We were better serving the people with BlackWatch, in my opinion, than the monsterous, duplicitous guidance of the U.N.
