After six years, the United Nations has finally admitted it deserves at least some blame for the death of thousands of Hatians in a 2010 cholera epidemic.

 

Despite the admission, the U.N. says it deserves no legal liability for the deaths, and will continue to avoid making reparations.

 

Haiti had successfully eliminated cholera roughly a century ago, despite its poverty. But that all changed in 2010, when the country was hit by a devastating earthquake that killed at least 100,000 people. Ten months later, thousands of people started to mysteriously come down with the disease, which mainly spreads via water tainted by the feces of victims. For the past six years, cholera has remained a persistent problem, killing over 9,000 Haitians and making hundreds of thousands more sick.

 

From the beginning, locals pointed the finger at a U.N. peacekeeper camp located along a tributary of the Artibonite River, where the first cases appeared. The camp in question was occupied by Nepalese peacekeepers, who allegedly followed poor sanitation practices that reintroduced cholera to the water supply.

Doing the killing that dictatorships and failed states won't do.
