Oh, yes, you would love to go backwards

If the United States is forced to go outside the UN to get a coalition to deal with Iraq, the UN will collapse under the weight of its own inaction. I believe this is the final straw, and the fact that the United States is having to drag the UN along is not a good sign for its future.


It is to our advantageous to keep the UN strong if for no other reason, then it gives us the appearance of trying to be fair and reasonable. Clinton knew that and Powell and Bush know it.

Its why they keep working with the UN inspite of their frustration. The world has grown too small for countries to act unilaterally. We need to set the example for the rest of the world.
