I wonder if this revelation will cause all the feminists who are angrily campaigning against sex slavery to rethink their use of the United Nations as an effective organiation with which to ally? I rather doubt it:
Members of the United Nations peacekeeping forces in southern Sudan are facing allegations of raping and abusing children as young as 12, The Daily Telegraph reported today….
This paper has learnt of more than 20 victims’ accounts claiming that some peacekeeping and civilian staff based in the town are regularly picking up young children in their UN vehicles and forcing them to have sex. It is thought that hundreds of children may have been abused.
And where is that UN Inter-Agency Project to Combat Trafficking in Women and Children when you need it? Okay, in fairness, they’re not actually buying them or even employing them as prostitutes, they’re simply using them.
Fortunately Amynda has the answer for these unfortunate children: “Use them right back and show them payback’s a bitch!”
