Majesties, Heads of State and Government, Excellencies, Ladies and Gentlemen,
Kill the 'bot!Kill the 'bot!Kill the 'bot!
Two years ago, speaking from this podium, I said that we stood at a fork in the road.
Long live the Kaiser! Malarbor Eats 'BotsI did not mean that the United Nations, marking its sixtieth anniversary this year, was in existential crisis. The Organization remains fully engaged in conflict resolution, peacekeeping, humanitarian assistance, defence of human rights, and development around the world. Kill the 'bot!Kill the 'bot!Kill the 'bot!Kill the 'bot! The clear danger was that States of all kinds might increasingly resort to spamming the forums of peaceful nations!-Kill the 'bot!Kill the 'bot!Kill the 'bot!To help you, the Member States, chart a more hopeful course, I want thirty-foot tall cborgs to kill the 'bot! Drawing on these reports and the early reactions of Member States, as well as my own conviction that our work must be based on respect for human rights, I want the 'bot dead. Those proposals were ambitious. But I believed they were necessary, given the era of peril and promise in which we live. And I believed they were achievable, if the political will was there.
etc.
All scrap metal to be melted down and sold for charity.
Prodigy Sez: Hmm. Looks like Jacobus got here before me... or was it the Kaiser? Actually, I think it was the kaiser looking at the evidence. Either way, I officially deem this too awesome to blow to bits.
No, just the Steward.
Well, maybe both (all 3) of us...........KILL THE EVIL 'BOT!
