the number of people really wanting to hand governance of international problems over the UN (especially considering their record) is very very small.
This is not a poll, you know. There is the charter that these countries (including yours) have signed, and it is clear. Besides, "governance" is not the issue here.
when the US & NATO bombed Serbia without any UN authorization?
I believe there was approval from the UN at the time.
The UN should have acted way before, of course, without waiting for Monica affair to blow up in Clinton's face and get him to find a way to change the headlines.
As for myself, I have long regarded the UN as an unelected dictators club.
Come again? Could you explain how the UN is "an unelected dictators club"?
Until then, I refuse to believe that US foreign policy is made more legitimate by having Syria vote for it.
You miss the whole point. The UN is not about US foreign policy, just as it is not about Syrian foreign policy.
you keep talking as if there were only two sides involved
Of course there are only two sides involved. Hamas et al are fringe groups that will be alienated as soon as there are separate countries, separate states, and hope of sustained peace.
I asked your suggestions as to what kind of a peace plan could be implemented. I would be interested to hear your views on this. |
