Since I posted this I obviously do see the same things wrong with this that you do. How do we change it? In Israel I don't know of one political party in the Knesset which has advocated pulling out of the U.N. In the U.S. Republicans seem to support the U.N. as well. Why????

Is the UN also stuck on stupid?

No, we are. For continuing to fund them.

Representative Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-FL)...compared the decision to "appointing a serial killer to serve as a juror in a murder trial."

Yeah, his own trial.

It is simply the cold truth that there are a lot of people stupid enough to believe that a nuclear-armed Iran is a good idea. It's the price paid for decades of anti-U.S. and anti-colonial propaganda among the internationalists and there is absolutely no indication that anything is changing. The consensus among these internationalists is that Israel destroyed is also a good idea because it will serve as an object lesson to those who think that a single country may defy international - meaning their - opinions.

This particular action was a deliberate, gratuitous, and ultimately counterproductive slap in the face to all of the West, not just the U.S. This particular branch of the UN isn't all that different from the rest of it, just a little more brazen.

I think Bolton is changing the tone somewhat, but you are right that we aid and abet this nonsense.

Nope, but they like lucrative oil contracts. Ask Saddam. My bet is on the baksheesh...

Follow the money!

"..stuck on stupid..." Your being too kind.

The UN has to be the most corrupt, impotent, and irrelevant bunch of clowns I've ever seen!

Proving once again that not everything in nature has a purpose.
