Latest Round Of UN Meddling

United Nations:
The United Nations tribunal investigating the 1994 mass killings in Rwanda today reduced the life sentence of a Hutu militia leader convicted of genocide, crimes against humanity and incitement to 45 years in prison because it found his rights had been violated during his arrest and detention before trial.

Syrian Forces Verifiably Withdrawn From Lebanon:

The United Nations verification mission sent to ensure that Syrian troops, military assets and its intelligence apparatus have fully withdrawn from Lebanon has reported that they pulled out of all areas, UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan said today.

then this statement, is it that the Syrians have left this area or they are also unsure whether they should insist that they do? Until the matter of whose land it is, is decided.
On the question of a small area of Lebanon or Syria called Dar el Achaer, he said, "We have verified all the withdrawals, including the border area. But as I said, there was a question of who has that territory."

The border has not been fully demarcated and there are conflicting claims as to whether that territory is in Lebanon or Syria, Mr. Annan said.
..confused???
