Crisis management experts are calling for the creation of a "United Nations army"-an international rapid reaction force that could be deployed within 48 hours to intervene in emergency situations around the globe.
Composed of up to 15,000 military, police and civilian staff, including medics, the proposed force would be recruited from professionals hired by the U.N. from many countries, and based at designated U.N. sites.

Great.....Another form of WaffenSS :(
Lucky that Hitler is dead, or else he would be secretary General of UN...
"Where is the recruiting station?"
"Will they be armed?"
Hopefully not. It would go against everything the UN stands for.
"an international rapid reaction force that could be deployed within 48 hours to intervene in emergency situations around the globe."
...except for countries that get arms from Russia, France, Germany, or China, and no country that doesn't have any viable resources or money to exploit. The only rapid thing the UN knows is how to steal money from people.
They sure will.
Should they broach this country in any way shape or form, Op Rule #.308 will be invoked.
Stand Fast!

Yeah, just small enough and poorly led enough to require US military back up on every mission they go on.
Not for me. Our Airmen, Marines, Sailors, Soldiers, and Coasties are who protects America and the UN can shove off!
Make 'em all French.
The UN's just breaking ground on a brand new money pit.
Better idea: next crisis, the UN should send big, fat bags of cash to those who already excell in this field
(the US military foremost among them, but also the Aussies, the Brits and others).
Can't you just see UN forces getting called to our southern border to make sure illegals get across in peace?

What, are there little girls in Africa that the UN hasn't raped yet? This is a horrible idea.
So it would be ....U.N.E.P.S.T.P.G.C.A.H.
Just imagine that stenciled on your helmet.
Also the article claims they could establish this Cluster ---k for 2 Billion Dollars.
Now I know the u.n. can't can't blow its own nose for 2 Billion Dollars. I would also imagine our cut of this bargain would be a lot more than the standard 22% of their budget we now "contribute".
Who would sign up today to fight for tomorrows generation of thugs?
Imagine joining the "UN police" only to have Uday as your boss?
Being ordered to fight with the "brave janjaweed in Darfor, Sudan"?
Do a few kidnappings for FARC?
NO THANKS
They have got to be kidding! The UN can't do anything in 48 hours.
Why be in that big a hurry after you spend 3 or 4 years 'discussing' the issue.
They will probably want a foreign army on our soil. Hell no,this is directly to undermine US military power. Get it out of the US.China and Russia I am sure want this. Sorry fascist not going to happen.
Someone on FR was making a sarcastic remark the other day on a thread, scoffing at just such a proposal when others were talking about a possible North American Union. I wish I could remember who it was so I could ping them on this story.
