You seem to be asserting that the UN is doing good things.
No, I am not. I am asserting that peace is a worthy objective. If you want to understand where I am coming from you have to know that I went to a Quaker college and am influnced by their work.
I did not buy the liberalism, but I understand that being a Christian is proactive. You do not wait for someone to attack you so you can kill him, if it is within your means to avoid violent conflict.
How this works out in real life is not a simple thing. I am not a democrat and I basically agree with Bush's foreign policy. Sometimes a lesser conflict avoids a greater conflict.
Nathanael Greene was a Quaker.
