I'd like to think so, DJ. But the usual response of UN forces is to run when things get hot. And if the UN absolutely must send troops into a hot zone, they usually stake out the airport, and don't go much further. Unless they're US boys and girls. The track record of non-US troops in such situations isn't very encouraging. More likely this will result in a sudden hesitancy to volunteer any troops with or without UNSC resolution authorizing such. No stomach for the fight. Derek
