They weren’t clear enough. You don’t “get out” of something that was started by your own nation, albeit by leftist traitors. You destroy it.

I was stationed in Germany when all that was going on.

I love the United Nations. Especially if they moved it to Mogadishu or Gaza.

The only think I like about the United Nations is that their building makes a beautiful addition to the Manhattan skyline.

Yes, it makes intelligence gathering and asset recruiting ridiculously easy. The grift and the diplomatic immunity issues, that would happen wherever the UN was relocated.

I mean, the IOC (Olympic Committee) is exactly the same, but no one there has any info anyone wants.

Sadly the US cannot unilaterally kill the pig. However, by putting it under the auspices of China, then Russia, not only will it make the parasitical delegates miserable, but it will penalize both China and Russia who have to babysit the carcass.

But their inflated egos will force them to do so, to show their “superiority”. They will quickly learn the meaning of the word stench.

For our part, “out of sight, out of mind.”

Red China wouldn’t care. It’d bring the European Union closer to their sphere of influence anyway.

It really shows that a really bad rot had set in, the fact that we even gave birth to the pig in the first place.

Just how was he going to do that?

It was amazing that he could defund parts of it that were overtly supporting terrorism.

Remember that it was the “second child” after the League of Nations.

I remember back during the peak of the US tabloids, one of them published an expose of the UN. It was so facially unbelievable that they even included references. That is, a tabloid publishing facts that were less believable than their ‘entertainment’ stories.

Among some of the highlights was an analysis of the general assembly. Given the PhD levels of many western diplomats there, the *average* level of education was fifth grade.

Their surveys and resolutions were downright stupid. Such as their favorite snack food being fried locusts, that there should be an interpreter who would translate into drums, and that they rejected the US Moon landing as just another Hollywood production. The UN commissions comic magazines to explain complex issues like nuclear proliferation to illiterate delegates.

Even though weapons are prohibited, every day on average they confiscate 60 or so weapons from delegates. These included things like handguns, knives, blowguns, poisons, and ritualistic black magic curse items. Routinely, delegates ruin the carpeted floors in their offices by making cooking fires on them. Many delegates are fascinated by hand held lighters and will play with them for hours on end.

They take their diplomatic immunity seriously, racking up endless thousands of dollars in unpaid traffic offenses, unpaid prostitutes, shoplifting, animal cruelty, etc., ad nauseum.

Nepotism is rife, often of family members who have offended and are exiled to the UN.
