Jose Ramos Horta Who Opposed UN
Banning Press But Was Lied To

GATE, Aug
28 -- How corrupt is today's
UN? Well, SG Antonio Guterres
while failing on Gaza and
Ukraine is on a junket
through Tonga to Timor Leste,
on the way to visiting Xi
Jinping in China.
On
August 16 the UN announced the
trip, leaving the China leg
for last. Inner City Press
remains banned
by Guterres from entering to
ask, no action on this application
to enter.
With
Guterres' traipsing with
platitudes from one island to
the next, on Timor Leste he
said "José Ramos-Horta, a
defender of peace. In fact, he
is a Nobel Peace Prize winner
and it is an honor for me to
be here today by his
side. I will never
forget the many hours we spent
working together during the
resistance." Resistance?
Earlier when the UN moved
against Inner City Press for
its coverage, Jose Ramos Horta
which had answered its
questions inquired - and was
lied to, that some unspecified
rule had been broken.
But did he follow up? We'll
have more on this.
