US out of the UN, UN out of the US.

Hu Jintao, Bob Mugabe (and his ilk in Africa), the Kazakh dictator, the fellow in Belarus and the faceless Burmese generals would love that. Contrary to popular opinion, most dictators like to go about their business quietly (unlike Chavez and Castro)- without wearing military fatigues and giving fancy speeches in New York.

Let's get serious, the UN may be flawed but it's the only forum available to discuss a wide range of issues like human rights, nuclear proliferation etc. It is bad, but it is preferable to chaos.

FDR did not create the present international system because he was stupid. If we think we can just tear down the system and all will be well, we are in for a rude shock.

Hell no! We need to keep an eye on them. Move the UN to Montana.
