UN funny, but quite bootyful

On May 2, dining room workers at the United Nations staged a strike, leaving the food and drink unattended. According to an early-May issue of Time magazine, this led to "Baghdad style (looting) chaos," in which UN staff and delegates robbed the restaurants bare of food, liquor and silverware,including alcoholic beverages stolen by "some well-known diplomats."
