Krauthammer's Pitch for Trump to Turn the UN into Condos.
Fox News | 12-26-16 | Charles Krauthammer

Posted on 12/26/2016 3:51:42 PM PST by Mrs.Z

Just heard Krauthammer (no fan of Trump), say that Trump should find a way to take the UN building in NY, put his (Trump's) name on it and turn it into condos. Even the RINOS are finally getting it.

Krautheimer is a damned RINO, so unfortunately I won’t be able to endorse this. Shame.

The property has probably been deeded to the UN to avoid any politics, but ....I doubt for eternity.

If for eternity, nothing says UN operations must continue there, especially if their operating budget takes a BIG hit.

The John Birch Society has been on it for a very long time!

Get US Out! of the United Nations has been the signature campaign of The John Birch Society for over 50 years.

A homeless shelter for Jews? How about a synagogue and subsidized senior housing instead? That would be cool! And a FAR better use than housing a nest of antisemitic antiAmerican vipers in our midst.

Why do I find it Ironic that you are defending a foreign claim of ownership of a building on our land?

I've given up trying to understand what you believe. All I can do is suggest that you read the treaty between the U.S. and the UN concerning their headquarters: Link

He can’t do something like that while he is president.

Dr. K is little late to the party, but he’s still welcome.

From 3 days ago, there are earlier references... but I have better things to do at the moment.

Third World countries deserve all the respect that they have earned.

And that is ... none whatsoever!

Under this Annex 2 provision, passes for inspection of the building must be allowed when requested! In this case, inspection for Asbestos Silicate.
(ie. the ability to close for asbestos removal)

ANNEX 2

MAINTENANCE OF UTILITIES AND UNDERGROUND CONSTRUCTION

SECTION 1

The Secretary-General agrees to provide passes to duly authorized employees of the City of New York, the State of New York, or any of their agencies or sub-divisions, for the purpose of enabling them to inspect, repair, maintain, reconstruct and relocate utilities, conduits, mains and sewers within the headquarters district.

“Dr. K plagerizing FR now.”

Hardly. Americans have been talking about throwing the U.N. out, since at least the sixties.
