Khalilzad to UN Would be Mistake

According to Bob Novak, Zalmay Khalilzad is one of President Bush's top choices to lead the UN. Even if he is tough and diplomatic, I think his appointment would be a mistake.

The message would be that we need Muslims to work with the world's other Muslims. Instead, I think we need to continue to argue that the world's Muslims must also compromise with the West and work with men and women of all religions, including Jews, Christians and Hindus. And if Bush really wants a Muslim to lead the U.S. at the United Nations, he should choose a Muslim woman for the job instead.

I still prefer Rumsfeld - or perhaps Rick Santorum.
