The UN cultural and scientific organisation Unesco has chosen its new leader, former Bulgarian Foreign Minister Irina Bokova.
Ms Bokova beat the favourite, Egyptian Culture Minister Faruq Hosni, whose candidacy had been clouded by allegations of anti-Semitism.
Mr Hosni, who would have been the first Arab head of Unesco, was always a controversial candidate. For many years Egypt's culture minister, he has spoken in the past about the "infiltration of Jews into the international media". Last year he said he would be willing to "burn Israeli books in Egyptian libraries"...
THIS IS GOOD NEWS.
ALTHOUGH, LET'S NOT FORGET: THIS VIRULENT PIECE OF ANTISEMITIC CRAP CAME IN SECOND!
THAT SAYS A LOT ABOUT THE UN.
IOW: THE GOOD NEWS SHE COME IN FIRST. THE BAD NEWS IS HE CAME IN SECOND!
