I think they should extent the security council to ALL countries, and give every one of them veto power. :p

This is prep work to start hammering the US and anything we try to accomplish through the UN. There will always be some small meaningless country somewhere that will oppose what the US does regardless of what it is.

Step one: Close the U.N.
If that fails-
Step two: Kick France off council permanently
Step three: Allow for five other regional seats: South America (includes mexico), Asia, Africa, Europe.
Step four: Attempt to close the U.N. again.

"the only legitimate global institution we have? And that is the U.N."

To quote Steve Martin in the Pink Panther, "Good one."

"The question is, do you want this world run by G13, G15, G20, or do you want it run by the only legitimate global institution we have? And that is the U.N.,"

Uh....No, No, No, and abso-#$%^&-ly NOT!

I’m going to make a wild guess and venture that this means they want to admit at least one nation dominated by Mahometan savages.

I’m in favor of it, actually. When you look at the success the League of Nations had in leading the world you just get sort of misty-eyed. Just as long as the U.S. is looking at it from the outside.

A world summit in 2005 said reform of the Security Council would make it "more broadly representative, efficient and transparent and thus ... further enhance its effectiveness and the legitimacy and implementation of its decisions."

Oh sure.
Just like the General Assembly does!

As far as I can tell, the General Assembly has degenerated into the islamic Second Council of Islamic States.
And their one-note neuroses became tiresome 20 years ago.

That's all we need.

Popularity, specially among the world's parasites, does not equal "legitimacy!"
