Always with the insults, Hawk. That's usually a sign that someone knows they are losing.

Even in your rants, you can't fail but to bring up the alledged "Oil for Food" scandal, as is every other defender of the current debacle. This is emblematic of your hypocracy. You alternatively assert that the UNSC allowed, nay REQUIRED, that Saddam be overthrown by force, and in the same breath heap scorn on the UN as a hollow, corrupt institution. If it is hollow and corrupt, it is in part because decades of US policy turned cynically to the UN only to endorse US actions. The body finally said "no," it would not go along, so of course it must be attacked.

If the US wants the United Nations to be a respected, responsible body, it must first treat the UN with respect. This administration, more than any other, has done the opposite.

If this had been Congress, none of the members would have recused themselves for conflicts of interest: have you looked at the US political system lately? It is for sale to the highest bidder.
