NY Times Does Irony
I hadn't planned on posting anything today. I planned on being too lazy. But then I saw this headline from the NY Times RSS Feed
East Timor's Capital Spirals Into Violence, Despite U.N. PeacekeepersNote: if look at the actual page they dropped the irony to shorten the headline.

Well, reading the story, they weren't actually "U.N. Peacekeepers". They were local police "trained by the United Nations" (whatever that means). The "Dispite U.N. Peacekeepers" tag shouldn't have been there in the first place. The city's police are no match for an invading national military.
