The U.N. Week

This is the week of the United Nations meeting in New York when that city is at its finest. There will be the usual traffic jams and all dignitaries will be accommodated safely and protected by New York's finest. But who can forget:
- Nikita Khrushchev banging his shoe on his desk.
- Fidel Castro's first visit when he brought the live fowl into the hotel rooms.
- Col. Qaddafi of Libya negotiating with Donald Trump for real estate to erect his tent.
- Pres. Ahmadinejad arriving from Iran tieless who killed the necktie business the way JFK killed hats.

And now we have the Palestinians for the first time. It should be an interesting week.
