The
New York Times this week chronicled the United Nations General Assembly
Session of 1964, one of the most disruptive and challenging in the
organization’s history. During this tumultuous period, the United States
delayed voting because the Soviet Union had failed to pay its bill, the
People’s Republic of China waged a campaign to expel Taiwan, and an individual
fired a bazooka at the United Nations headquarters. If nothing else, the
article sets a high bar for the would-be
disruptors of the United Nations today.
