Absolutely true. Too many Americans need to take those blinders off and see what the UN has really become: the power behind the greenie environazis is: the UN. The power behind the Third Way movement is: in the UN. In addition, every terrorist action anymore, every one of their atrocities, is justified BY them TO the world by...you got it...UN 'resolutions'.
No, we don't need the UN to execute this mission. The United States and our staunchest ally, Britain, are all that is necessary. Oh, yeh, we can successfully go it alone, but we appreciate Britain's support, both the moral support and the physical military sullort.
I don't really want to be lectured and shamed by representatives of countries that have fewer flush-toilets than Presidents in exile.
I'm sure that there is some economic benefit to Lower Manhattan businesses that accompany the U.N.'s headquarter location. But, these diplomats are a menace to the natives. They drive like crap, they are cheapskate pigs to women in the bars and restaurants, they are careless parking scofflaws and they stiff their vendors on a regular basis. Think of the delegation from Zimbawe or France out for a night on the town. I'd like to have complete diplomatic immunity one evening while bar hopping.
Let's just relocate the entire operation to Ted Turner's ranch in Montana. Let him clean up the Martini-laden vomit of the Assistant AIDS Education Liasion from Uruguay.
I know this thought is evil beyond excuse, and I am ashamed to even have thought of it but: it crossed my mind, once: "If the Islamic monkees had to hit New York, why couldn't they have hit the U.N. building?" The New York Times HQ building was an acceptable alternative as well. Shame on me.
