That is why the whole point about UN endorsement is moot.. UN endorsements could be obtained through bribe, threat and blackmail.. No different then a typical lobbying effort in Washington.. It has nothing to do with right or wrong.. Just a straightforward what-do-I-get-out-of-this-if-I-agree-to-what-you-are-asking-me-to-do..

Also, enforcement of UN resolutions have been so selective and arbitrary, it is not even worth talking about.. After everything is said and done, don't forget, "Morality is on the side of heavier artillery" (quote attributed to Napolean).. FWIW..

Morality for sale
