Sorry, original headline changed - was: Israel to re-assess U.N. ties after settlement resolution, says Netanyahu

The UN should be moved to Paris or Berlin. The US should stay in, attend all of the parties, eat all of the food, but not pay a penny for anything. Let them go broke on their own dime.
How do you account for the fact that the United Nations Charter follows the format of the Russian (USSR) Constitution of 1936 rather than the format of the (Covenant of the) League of Nations? Would you feel there was any significance in the fact that the general secretary for the organization which drew up the charter was Alger Hiss? …The UN should never have been created. Especially in the form that Hiss molded it in.

We give more to UN than any other nation and they hate us an Israel so screw them...let them live on what others give...in meantime give them 10 years to clear that valuable river front property...

In the past there was a reason to have everyone physically meet. Now with instant communications it is outdated. I think the US should leave, kick hem the hell out of the US. Let them financially support themselves.
No

Quit the UN and serve them an eviction notice.
none that we should stay, and a thousand why we should leave... AFTER we throw them out of the country US out if the UN - UN OUT OF THE US!!!
It is long past time for the US to leave the UN!
And, the UN has overstayed its welcome in the US, fer shure, fer shure!
I foresee a UNEXIT!
What would be the strategic benefit to leaving? I can think of significant drawbacks to it.
US should also ditch the IMF and the WTO.
Yes; to veto all resolutions and double the rent, maybe triple it.
Stay in the UN, but VETO everything no matter what.
Nothing would get passed. And only pay $1 a year to keep our membership and veto.
Only if it gives us easier access to the UN building to plant the dynamite charges.... then we can leave.
Trump should have warned that if the anti-Israel measure passed in the SC he would eliminate all funding to the UN and would explore the possibility of leaving the body and asking them to vacate NYC.
The UN is nothing more than an evil joke...
He and his "friends" refuse to leave and start billing you for the food and accommodations, in addition to asking for spending money to rent further accommodations and airfare to unknown climes in search of more fees to further their own aspirations. You have seen the writing on the wall for some time but the crowd living at your expense is so large, you see no way to extricate yourself from this debacle without reaping the wrath of all the freeloaders.
That is where we are. Stop this nonsense, stop paying for the UN to laugh at us while they destroy our culture and continue to laugh and get fat at our expense.
NO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
According to Carroll Quigley in “Tragedy and Hope” the original purpose of the UN was to preserve national sovereignty. It has strayed so far from it’s original intent that it now is openly supporting world government and the NWO.
Besides, what war has the UN ever stopped?
Get out, it’s not worth the money. Move it to Belgium and let the UN officials deal with the Muslim problem (that they helped to create) face to face.
Absolutely, we must stay. Without US veto in Security Council (which Obama wasted and stabbed Israel in the process,) US could not prevent anti-US resolutions, which have the force of international law.
That said, we must reduce or eliminate funding if they don’t do what pleases us.
It’s the power of the purse.
UN wasn’t even a decent idea when it was first proposed and makes even less sense now
