Yes, there’s a silver lining to the UN election of Zimbabwe to chair the Commission on Sustainable Development, or CSD. As happy chance would have it, the UN wouldn’t even have to change the acronym if the world body decided to try some truth in advertising, and rename its CSD the Commission on Sustainable Dictatorships.

In my column for National Review online are some reasons why that would be just the right move — reasons including Saudi Arabia, Cuba, Belarus, Sudan, Iran and North Korea. And, of course, Zimbabwe.

Alan S. Fr eemond, Sr.:

The UN is a disaster. It would be helpful for us to:
First withhold dues and donations unless it is totally controlled by Americans, John Bolton?
Second Start figuring an exit strategy for us from the UN. One that we can get past the likes of Pelosi/Reid.

The only people who’d suffer in a closure of the UN in New York would be the real estate folks and the restaurants.
