The U. S. and Israel would be the focus of every effort if
we weren’t there to stop it.


Perhaps true, but at least it would not be US Taxpayers picking up the tab.

If the US pulls out of the UN it would soon become a empty shell.

At least being in New York, it does drag them across the
fact that we are who we are.

My distaste for the U. N. is real. My distaste for how the
WHO handled their duties during this pandemic is also
something that grates me.

The question is, how do we modify their behavior, or get
rid of them entirely, not just our withdrawing.

As long as they exist, they are a threat/thorn in our
sides.

True, but there also wouldn't be a United Nations to have a Security Council - without us that organization falls completely apart most countries us it as a way of smuggling things through New York in those Diplomatic pouches.

The U.N is a money laundering scheme masquerading as play world government.

The first global economic crisis nobody pays the dues and it's League of Nations time - and thats if the US isn't running interference and prompting regional alliances which it would.

Thats what my crystal bad says would happen.

Good!

Now, terminate our relationship with the UN.
*********************************
Nope, that would be stupid. As long as we are a member, WE HAVE VETO POWER. We can reduce our UN monetary obligations but still keep our membership. We can keep them from drifting into doing something nasty against our interests.

You know who would replace us as the U. N.’s military
wing right?

China! It’s just itching for the opportunity, and the U. N.
would jump at that chance too.

China will ultimately chew up and spit out the U. N.
without us around to stop it, but that won’t stop the
U. N. from jumping at the opportunity to replace us.

The WHO, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Communist Chinese Party. Good, maybe now our money will go for something more than fat salaries for lying reprobate.

Let them put their headquarters in Tehran.

In the midst of the Taiwan and Hong Kong controversies it looks like the WHO won’t budge being a puppet of China.

So Trump forms another power bloc:

Founding members with veto power: US, UK, France, Israel, India, Australia, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Poland, Taiwan, South Korea, Japan, and Hungary.

Invited members: Saudi Arabia, Oman, Bahrain, Vietnam, Thailand, UAE, Ethiopia, Kenya, Singapore, Egypt, and Greece.

Conditional invitations: Djibout (only if they kick China out of its ports), Panama (only if they push China out of administering the canal), Jordan (only if they recognize history and Israel's land rights).

But EVERYONE must affirm conservative principles on all issues of trade, culture, human rights and nationalism, and they must construct a plan for curriculum to produce a conservative culture.

And the UN collapses with Russia, and China holding the bag. It destroys anti-US organizations such as the EU, OAS, GCC, and to a much lesser extent, ASEAN.

Then we can turn to deal with Islam strategically.........

Nope. Kick the thugs and dictators out of the UN building but we should remain a member since we are the security Council. We can pay dues of $1.00

Uh Oh.

It appears the fat-azzed bureaucrats at the WHO are in a pickle. They will have to cut back on their 1st Class airline tickets, 5 Star hotel rooms, $150 Wagu steaks, $75 bottles of wine, and professional "escorts" on their upcoming "medical" conferences.

That's a shame, as their "help" and "expert" advice is such a valuable commodity to the rest of the world. They really need that paltry $454 million we give them every year to continue in their essential work of saving humanity!

Evict them and ignore them. We don’t need them.

Unless you want to continue with globalism.
