They could move HQ to Sudan. They are the UN's shining example of human rights (and are again seated on the panel).
...If they want a renovation, let them go stay in Geneva, maybe in a fortress in the Alps...
Step 1. Move the UN out of the buildings.
Step 2. Use the complex as the army's new urban warfare training center.
Improved plan: skip step 1.
Bad idea. Strategic bombing won't be nearly as effective and we'll lose a lot of troops digging them out when we finally have to.
I remember a story, years ago, about how a UN organization, UNICEF, squandered millions of dollars paying rent for the top floors of a NY office tower, even when they were offered the 2 to 3th floors of the same building for... FREE!
Nope, the lower floors weren't good enough for their big egos - so instead they squandered $600,000 a year for the penthouse floors.
After reading that article, I never gave a single cent to them. (the poor kids, fooled into canvassing for Unicef at Halloween, were unwitting tools in this odious scam)
UN = Hypocritical Corrupt Con Men skimming 90% for themselves = UN (unmitagated frauds)
Eactly. The UN'll be there to demonstrate to the rest of the world how it cleans up messes!
Haiti has all the problems of the world for the UN to practice on: earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, starvation, illiteracy, AIDS, twobit dictators, etc.
Let the UN redeem itself by showing us why its worthy to pick our pockets.
Look at the side benefits: Bono has less time to showboat in the US, the NYSlimes UN reporter will have to be down
there, no more turd-world dictators being welcomed in NYC. Until a Clintonista's back in the Whitehouse, anyway.
nah. that's too posh digs fer the likes of the UN. a rwandan outhouse should suffice

In Jerusalem.
Not Haiti. Jerusalem.
...No troops would be lost, the senate could enact another commitee, and make Sir Hillary head climber, to lead the expedition...
Will the structure last long enough for it to be occupied before it collapses from the latest French contruction techniques?
Build it in Afghanistan.
UN Inspector says, "...is not a problem."
This request is no different than an AIDS infested, butt-ugly, crack-whore prostitute demanding a chateau in France for her "services."
I'm sure Al Qaeda could give them a special price on building removal in NY with their extensive experience and low cost approach.
BUMP
now there's an appropriate place for the un!
Serious proposal:
Since they need to move anyway, the time is perfect for the U.N. to puts its HQ location up for bid. The nation that makes them the best offer gets to be the new host nation for the U.N.
(This only works if the U.S. is NOT one of the bidders.)
bttt!
It's Standard Operating Procedure for an organization to set aside a certain amount every year for upkeep and repairs.
It's absolutely typical of the U.N. to blow all its money on junkets, high living, and perks such as juvenile sex slaves, while letting their building go to the dogs. Now they expect the U.S. taxpayers to fix it.
The best thing that could happen is to get the U.N. out of N.Y. It would be a good first step toward getting the U.S. out of the U.N.
