If I thought you really believed that I would be worried about you. Iran was an ally until Jimmy Carter messed it up. It took President Reagan to get our hostages back. You know that most of the current problems in the UN came during Clinton's term. The US was just another sucker ho could be counted on to pay the party bill. (Kind of like going drinking with Teddy Kennedy.) Of course, Bush has been in office for nearly 5 years and still you blame someone else for the current problems. Never have I seen a group play the blame game so well. President Bush has restored the respect of the inter national community. It is unlikely that he will have enough time to whip the UN back into shape, but at least he can keep the international socialists at bay for a little while. Who's respect do you think Bush has? Paul Volker is saying as much as he can, which is not much. If you read him carefully you can see that Kofi Annan is corrupt and surrounds himself with corrupt people like Benon Sevan. They have stolen millions of dollars from the people of Iraq. Isn't Volker a banker? If so, what does he have to do with the UN? The UN wants to subsume the role of world government. In one way it is ready; the UN is already as corrupt as the most corrupt national governments. And you know this because........? Can you imagine what your Russian equivalent is saying about the US losing $100 million in Iraq and not having an accurate accounting of the billions spent there? Add to it, the fact that HAL got contracts in Iraq without competitive bidding. Do you think there is corruption in Iraq or just out and out incompetency? Are we one of the more corrupt national gov'ts?
