The Duelfer Report's exposure of the biggest international financial scam in history, the Oil for Food scandal, and the how that program meant to reduce a global threat was corrupted has taught the forces of internationalism nothing. At least nothing that they will admit.

The game was halted only by bold action by the US and its allies, acting in the face of the Security Council's perfidy.

Now, they are up to their old tricks again, this time with "international monitors" of US elections:

The foreign observers set to monitor the U.S. presidential election for the first time ever this November said the election of a Florida Democrat as president of the group's parliamentary assembly would not taint the group's objectivity.

On July 9, U.S. Rep. Alcee Hastings —— criticized by conservatives for his ethics and partisanship —— was elected president of the OSCE's parliamentary assembly, a position that will allow him to appoint and assign OSCE's election monitors.
