COURTHOUSE,
Aug 7 รข Inner City Press asked
US State Department official
Michael Gonzales if any of the
eight Mexican cartel leaders
the US is targeting are
outside of Mexico, as Wenshen
Xu was in Honduras, and if the
US works with UNODC. Gonzales
said, Anywhere in the world -
and said the US does work with
UNODC, but not on enforcement.
Given who
controls it, that's
understandable. But why does
USUN Mike Waltz praise these
dubious UN agencies, while
doing nothing on the UN's ban
on US-based investigative
Inner City Press from entering
the building? This
letter is still pending
- More on X for
Subscribers here
and Substack here Back on February
5, US State Department
official Senior Official
Jeremy P. Lewin held a press
conference on February 5 about
US humanitarian support for
the Cuban people. Inner City
Press RSVP-ed and had its
question asked: Can you speak to
how this initiative shows the
increase irrelevance of the
United Nations, amid its
failures on Sudan, Gaza,
Venezuela and
elsewhere? The moderator
read the question out - Inner
City Press, still banned from
even entering the UN where for
years it had a resident
correspondent's office for
such calls, told them it was
too loud in the courthouse it
is reporting from - and Jeremy
Lewin responded. He said
the UN does have to show its
relevant, noting that when the
US is strong, the UN fades in
the shadow. But,
Inner City Press would point
out, even where the UN tries
to make itself central, it is
even worse. The UN brought
cholera to Haiti; UN staff
participated in October 7,
just as years before UNDP
staff participated in the
genocide against the Tutsis in
Rwanda. Lewin said
Ambassador Mike Waltz is
working on all
this. On February 2,
Inner City Press wrote to
Ambassador Waltz, via the US
Mission's website form and the
email for the Mission listed
in the UN Blue Book, saying he
should ensure Inner City
Press' re-enter by at latest
March 1, when he assumes
presidency of the UN Security
Council and holds a press
conference of the type Inner
City Press participated in,
with question to Lewin - and
can it not have access to the
UN, about which it reports
daily? Watch this site.
