a) that list is in no way comparable with the sillyness of the other list;
b) Belgium was working under UN mandate;
c) the way your quote is phrased, is vague enough and allows for a lenient application whereas the other lists clearly says "prohibited items", the only exception being when the items are destined for use by international organisations; which is far more strict than what you quote;
d) you quoted just a small part of that resolution; the resolution is much broader than just that;
e) off topic and completely irrelevant to the case at hand;
f) "hey, but you did something similar!" = 1) incorrect (see a) to d); 2) schoolyard rhetoric ("But the other kid did it too! So that makes my behaviour good! Boohoohoo!")
So, that leaves the question: what's your point, exactly? Or are we out of reasonable and relevant arguments? What's the next nonsensic thing you'll come up with? That I have to shut up because Belgium did nasty things to Congo in 1910?
