What exactly has the “international community” done for America other than bleed it for money?

Cut all funding. Charge them yuge amounts of rent. Better still, kick them out.

How positively socialist of them.

Antonio sounds like an upstanding communist.

The UN can FOAD.

They need us more than we need them.
