At NRO Claudia Rosett comments on the discovery that for more than a decade UN weapons inspectors have been storing vials containing one of Iraq’s chemical-weapons concoctions -- phosgene -- in a cabinet in their own New York office. Rosett summarizes the wrongdoing and corruption that is occurring under the auspices of the UN. Noting that the discovery occurred as the UN's weapons inspection commission was closing up, Rosett proposes closure as a general remedy: "If shutting down a U.N. operation is what it takes to provoke a full housecleaning, there’s a great case by now for closing down the entire U.N. system, immediately."
