The UN is a joke. It's amazing to me, that despite all this coverage of the UN's failure at peacekeeping, humanitarian aid, inspections, etc., people still continue to worship at its altar. It's a laughingstock if you ask me and why anyone still takes it seriously is just folly.

The Weekly Standard said it best and I paraphrase, "many people have a misconception of what the United Nations is. Many like to believe that it is the nations of the world united in a just cause to better humanity. It is not the nations of the world united. It is an organization in NYC where representatives of nations come to espouse their own nations interest. There is nothing altruistic about it. " It should be scrapped.
