Take a good look at the members of the Security Council for this term and who is going to be in charge on a monthly basis. This whole organization has turned into a bad joke IMO!

IMO we would be better off if the Security Council votes against a 2nd resolution and make the United Nations Security Council and thus the United Nations irrelevant.

And on top of this we have Syria chairing a Human Rights committee and Iraq chairing a Disarmament Committee this Spring.

Did not know until I went to the site that Chili (?) and Mexico (?) were part of the Security Council. What do they and others have to do with Security around the world.

Why isn't Australia on the Security Council?

IMO time for the United States to get out of the United Nations as it has turned into a toothless, paper tiger!

It looks like the US is going even one better. It is allowing the Euro-snots and all the rest to render themselves irrelevant and useless. Once that is established in the minds of the citizens, we won't have to be bothered by them.

That is so true! I was shocked to see some of these countries on the Security Council and others left off. Angola (?) is not a country that belongs on the Security Council. Last I remember they couldn't take care of their own country.

I agree with you, France and Germany are doing us a big favor.

IMHO, this alone makes the U.N. an irrelevant joke! I've had enough...let's roll.

There is a group of over 120 established and emerging democracies called the Community of Democracies. We should call that the UN and tell the rest of the world to f@%k off. Who gives a rat's ass about what North Korea or China or Iraq thinks about our foreign policy? Bush knows that it's not Islam directly that threatens us. All of our enemies have one thing in common-- they aren't too keen on freedom.

Thanks for sharing that! I am with you!

No wonder we don't want to share classified with the Security Council members.

The UN has outlived its usefullness IMO!

Hi PKMom, the UN has certainly become the laughingstock of thinking people.

They are totally irrelevant, now!

If the UN ever served a useful purpose which I doubt it has long since ceased to.  The only reason it seems to exist today is to redistribute the wealth of nations, all in the name of humanity of course.  When it comes to the tough questions and the tough problems it is worse than useless, it is obstructionist.

As Mad Kitty would say.  Mad Kitty Picture

Methinks Kofe Annan has a 'king of the world' ego. Unfortunately for him, he rules over spies and thieves. Doling out little favors to Iraq or Syria, while trying to stay on the back of the tiger. Fearing that W. and the U.S. will make Kofe and the thieves look irrelevant.

Kinda like the League of Nations.
