sounds like a business case trigger to relocate the U.N. to another country. That giant sucking sound.

Still have my copies of Reader's Digest October and November 1996 issues that highlighted all the waste, fraud, and corruption of the U.N.

It appears that Dubya Rockefeller wants to wait until the sheeple re-elect him to fleece more taxpayers to foot the bill for international socialists so they destroy America from air-conditioned rooms sitting on $1,000 leather chairs.

If the UN sold that incredibly valuable riverfront property, it could move itself to a Third World country and build a whole new place with the proceeds.

I agree. The conditions for continued US membership and participation in the UN should be that it be removed to another country.

They could probably move to Brussels for half that much.

The UN should relocate smack dab in the middle of Africa.

Unfortunately the U.S. will foot the bill; it'll be tucked away into the budget disguised as foreign aid or something.

Rebuild World Trade Center. Have the U.N. relocated to the top 10 floors of each tower.

Nah! You're too kind. Paris is my choice. France wants to wear the pants in the world, let's fill it with a load of cr*p for them.

Are you series? Why not just ditch the memorial and let the U.N. build there too.

Hmmm. Not a bad idea.

I suppose that someone will provide a story about all the jobs that would be lost in NYC if the UN were to move. No doubt the bars, resturants and hookers on the East side would suffer business losses. On the otherhand, I would guess that the city would save a lot of money being spent on police and security.

On balance, I would favor them re-building in some other world capital. I, for one, am tired of paying the cost of having a bunch of third world bureaucrats meeting in New York.

We should relocate the UN to Haiti. After all they speak french there, labor is cheap and parking space is available. Plus all those hypocritical UN diplomats & their spawn will then be Hatian citizens.
