Well, we can’t say we weren’t warned. The most obvious thing about the wave of riots sweeping America for the past few days is just how organised they are. This is no more a “spontaneous uprising” than the Reichstag fire was a random act of terror. Which is

Former UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan once admitted that, when it comes to sovereignty, the UN is often blatantly hypocritical.
