Oh, why not. I'm predicting the following UN vote:
Three Superpower Vetoes:
France, China and Russia
Two Superpower Yes Votes:
US and Britian
Non-Veto Power Abstentions:
Chile, Angola, Guinea, Mexco, Cameroon, Pakistan
Non-Veto Power No Votes: Syria, Germany
Non-Veto Power Yes Votes: Spain, Bulgaria
Final tally?
Five No Votes (three with veto)
Four Yes Votes
Six Absentions
I leave out the possibility that the US will bribe or blackmail one or two of the small nations into voting yes (maby even bribing or blackmaiing others to abstain), thereby either tying the vote or winning it six to five. After all, Bush wants this war so bad he'd give up his mother to get the deal--not serious, written for emphasis purposes only! |
