Let me guess, as strongly suggested by UN Council members like Iran or China or North Korea or Laos. I can hardly wait for their suggestions on gun control.

There’s a reason why the 9/11 terrorists didn’t make the UN building one of their targets back in 2001.

It’s half a century past time to clear out the UN building and flatten it.

I remember watching Kofi Annan running out of the UN on 9/11 to waiting cameras to say that the building was safe and in no danger.

I screamed at the tv "Of course--the attack was launched from the UN!!!"

I believed it then and I believe it now.

This has to be satire.
