Ban Ki-Moon wrong choice for peace prize

UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon is the wrong choice for the Tipperary International Peace Prize for several reasons:

1. The Syrian War, the resolution of which has been prevented by veto powers at the UN. The secretary general failed to confront Russia, China, the US, Arab Nations, and others for abandoning Syria.

2. The military coup, unfettered brutality, and absolute persecution by Egypt’s new dictator, President El Sisi. Thousands have been murdered and tens of thousands imprisoned.
