If the US pulls out, they have ZERO divisions, because the rest of the useless posturing dipsticks won't do ANYTHING unless American soldiers put their blood on the line first, and then sometimes they still won't.

It's funny, but these stinkers in the UN remind me of the stepsisters in Walt Disney's "Cinderella"! There is a scene where Cinderella's little friends 'redo' her old ballgown, after snagging some beads and a sash her stepsisters threw away. She comes downstairs all dressed up; and looks much better than her stepsisters look.

Then the two other girls look at her in shock, then jealousy. They rush at her and tear the dress apart; crying that she was a thief, and stole their things, after they discarded them! That's how these three 'stepsisters' in Europe are acting right now!

They don't want to lift a finger to help the Iraqis to be liberated, or to disarm SH. But they sure get jealous when the coalition gets in there, and helps liberate the people, and wins many hearts, and they all want a part of that! Then they want to just walk in and 'take over'!

Who is running that pack of clowns?

Just about the time I think the U.N. can't trot out more inanity, they invent a better idiot!
This sounds suspiciously like a Muslim/Arab imbecility.
I won't even attempt to respond to the moronic premise of the released statement...

Why don't they just change the name to U.A.N. and be done with it?

Why is that a surprise?
Is there doubt in your mind that the Middle East Maggots are writing this crap? The Muslim illogic is obvious and endemic.

I doubt if Kofi can read and write.

Use of tear and pepper gas by U.S. troops is prohibited under the Geneva Convention.

It is not permitted for warfare use. It is permitted for domestic (and occupied nation) crowd control.

U.S. Use of Tear Gas Could Violate Treaty, Critics Say [Another 'Bush-is-always-wrong' piece]

The Defense Department said tear gas, which has been issued to American troops, would be used only to save civilian lives and in accordance with the convention, ratified by the United States in 1997. But critics say any battlefield use of tear gas would violate the treaty, offend crucial allies, including Britain, and hand Saddam Hussein a possible pretext for using chemical weapons against the United States.
