a small point, just because the governments do not disagree with  
something in public is no reason to assume they are in agreement.  i  
do not know if they have dissented in the background, but governments  
are the ones who participate in the UN all the time and the ones who  
have access to UNSG's office.

i am not trying to say they did dissent, but they generally don't do  
their dissenting too publicly.  also, think of all the countries that  
said nothing or essentially nothing.
