Speech delivered by Amb.
General good is the pies of the scoundrel, hypocrite and flatterer.
We heard all about the good of mankind during the U.N.'s 50th anniversary celebrations a while back, heady oratory about noble ideals and aspirations which the U.N. can turn into reality for the good of all humanity. The referendum was to let 100'000 people living there decide whether to be an independent state or part of Morocco. If ever there was a job ready-made for the U.N. this was it, or so it seemed. I had not seen the likes of it since I observed the apartheid government in South Africa in action against blacks when I visited there with Roy Wilkins in the early 70's. Morocco tapped U.N. phones, intercepted U.N. mail and searched the living quarters of U.N. staff, with impunity.
