We don't need no mass confusion; we don't need no constitution; we don't need no President to tell us we're free. Everybody wants a little taste of anarchy.

Dirty Greek - Spying at the U.N.

After yesterday's story broke that Kofi Annan had been spied on by the British, we now learn that Richard Butler, former U.N. Iraq weapons inspector, also had his phones bugged from 1997-1999.
"He told Australian radio at least four UN Security Council members monitored his calls, and he would leave the UN building if taking a confidential call.

ABC Radio cited Australian intelligence sources as saying Hans Blix, the last weapons inspector, was also bugged.

Ex-UK minister Clare Short says the UK bugged UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan.

"Of course I was (bugged)," Richard Butler told ABC radio.

"I was well aware of it. How did I know? Because those who did it would come to me and show me the recordings that they had made on others to help me do my job disarming Iraq."
Of course, everyone that's been accused is denying the allegations, but what reason do we have to think it isn't true? By the way, if it turns out this is true, the actions taken were very illegal. Of course, nobody high-up will actually take the fall, but some patsy's really gonna get it!

BTW, BBC has some video about the topic.
