Not that it will do any good with this administration, but the United Nations’ plan to commemorate the 10th anniversary of their despicable Durban Conference on 9/11 will be a “teachable moment” (“The UN’s 9/11 Insult,” Editorial, Dec. 12).

Once again, it will clearly demonstrate the utter contempt with which the execrable member nations hold their pathetic host, the “kick me” country known as the United States.

Three jeers for America’s pusillanimous abandonment of decency, and three cheers for Canada’s stalwart defense of it.
