     Meaning well is nice, saying nice things is nice, nice is nice.
Ethenic clensing is evil if done by Serbs, and not worth mention if done
by croats or muslims.	Ruwanda was not nice and that is why the UN
forces
were withdrawn just prior to the really big round of killing at the
end.  JTL

     It is also possible that the UN is also doing something somewhere
else,
and the distraction of the KraVak will allow its completion.
     The UN may have made it clear how sorry it would be if its control
of

battle
and keep all the asteroids from hitting selected locations on earth.   
Or, maybe they just do not want thier tax base damaged.   JTL
