Who cares?
Do you really believe that the UN would actually DO anything positive in this situation?
The UN trades in boatloads of hot air; a whole lotta big, empty talk. At the day's end, the UN is a totally impotent, flyweight cabal of appeasers, Islamist bootlickers, and totalitarian shoeshine boys.
The UN is a land where people actually believe that flapping their gums incessantly is a viable method for stopping the baddest of the world's bad guys.
Let me tell you in no uncertain terms: left to the UN, this world will go straight to Hell.
There isn't a single human on this planet who — in any way, shape or form — NEEDS the UN.
Today, I'd trade the UN — ALL of it, from top to bottom — for JUST ONE MAN with the sense, grit, and grim determination of, say, Eliot Ness, or J. Edgar Hoover.
Love 'em or hate 'em; what we need right now are hard-nosed guys willing to lock eyes with Islam, and stare it down with the full force of our own nuclear arsenal behind them.
The CLEAR message MUST be sent to the Islamic world:
"We don't care what you believe, if you try to claim just one more square inch of Israel, or any other presently peaceful nation on this planet, I personally guaran-damn-tee that we'll exchange that turban of yours for a mushroom cloud!"
History PROVES without any shadow of doubt that the ONLY message that gets heard in the Muslim world is the message of imminent DEATH backed up with PROOF of capability to deliver. The ONLY times in history when the Islamist hordes have been quiet, are those times when they have most recently been on the receiving end of overpowering, deadly military force, and it seems to me that their bent is to behave in ways indicating that regularly administered doses of same are needed to ensure that they continue to exist in peaceable demeanor with the civilized world.
NOW all we need is a messenger with the guts to say so, the character to actually MEAN it, and the position to MAKE IT STICK.
Our alternative is Armageddon.
CNN just reported Obama hasn’t spoken with Mubarek. O is working through intermediaries. CNN reporter continues line that WH is deciding how to respond.

And the political will to actually do it:
the ‘5MT Solution’ for Mecca and Medina.
