We cater to every whim of that so called world forum is of course, terribly inaccurate. There are many, within and without the US, who'd argue the exact and extreme opposite, and they're equally inaccurate. The use of veto, political and economic suasion, backroom deals...all these the US has used in pursuit of its goals. Where it has gone along with other countries, or with the UN as a whole, it's only because in one way or another those decisions were deemed at least at the time to be in the interests of the US.this is what all countries do . I wouldn't expect different. We little gnats on the shoulder of the world do the same as much as we're able ;-)
