Is there a reason why the US should stay in the UN?

JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Israel will re-assess its ties with the United Nations following the adoption by the Security Council of a resolution demanding an end to Israeli settlement building, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Saturday.

The vote was able to pass the 15-member council on Friday because the United States broke with a long-standing approach of diplomatically shielding Israel and did not wield its veto power as it had on many times before - a decision that Netanyahu called "shameful".

No need for us to stay in the UN, and the UN can get the F out of this country too.
The UN is nothing more that than a far left tool to hurt countries which does not agree with them. Like the League of Nations

Republicans maybe in power will veto,. but which has been proven under obama, the left will not.

yea problem is that the colleges keep turning out dumb a#### who then vote every 4 years. Maybe CA can leave us San Diego, Camp Pendleton, and other parts of the southern state, and then the rest form their own country, but so long as they build a wall along their border from us.

Well I can dream it is Christmas.

What is absurd is that the U.N. - a body comprised mostly of corrupt dictatorships - is perceived by some to have moral authority.

Bizarre.

Yep...Should stay in just for the purpose of vetoing every proposal that comes down the pike while eliminating as much funding as possible...

There is no reason for us to be in or hosting the UN. The UN building could be used for something worthwhile - an abandoned UN building would be more of value than it is doing now.

There are still members of the MSM that refuse to believe Alger Hiss was a communist mole in the DoS. This in light of the Venona transcripts (FBI), Whitaker Chambers “Pumpkin Papers”, and the KGB archives that were opened after the fall of the Soviet Union.

Fake News: J. Walter Duranty was a correspondent for the NYT and also drew a check from Stalin's NKVD (forerunner of KGB). He wrote that the Soviet's 5 year plans were going smoothly, ignored the forced famine in the Ukraine that killed millions, and ignored Stalin's Great Purge. The SOB was awarded the Pulitzer Prize and his plaque adorns the wall of the NYT.

In the U.N.’s many peace keeping missions into Africa there is nothing more than a long sordid history of their troops raping women in the countries they are stationed in. When bullets fly they beat a hasty retreat. We have no reason to remain in and fund them.

Move it to Venezuela or some other dirt poor crime infested location where the crooks who run the UN will feel at home.

Can’t think of one reason.

My memory is a bit foggy, but as I recall, the organization wasn’t particularly helpful in Iraq
