Cool. Oom Shmoom is a insult to the UN that David Ben-Gurion came up with. Oom is Hebrew for UN and Shmoom is a Yiddish term for Belittlement. It is still used to insult the UN lol.

(The U.S. should adopt the policy of Oom Shmoom: Israeli policy where no one gives a sh*t about U.N.)

I'm afraid the term is lost on me. How did we go from Latin-to-Gaelic-to-English translations of my tagline to "Oom Shmoom and the UN...?"
