It has been seen by other nations as our rubber stamp (at times) and this DOES show that the UN is not our lackey- a valuable perception in the world, I think, if the UN is to work. That's a good point, one I had not considered. However, if we blow off the UN because it is no longer our lackey, then that would be another of those damned Pyrrhic victories. But a bit of humility in a superpower might be a good thing. Ya know, I thought I saw that very notion posted on the WH website yesterday. Oh, yesterday was April 1. Shoulda known.
