<<I wouldn't walk across the street to p*ss on the UN.>> If it was just across the street and not on fire, I'd hose it down. Ever wonder why no plane hit the UN on 9/11?

The UN is an anti-US organization. As it stands right now? Absolutely.. However, the UN was created by the United States. We then, in the interest of tolerance and compromise, violated the entire vision of the UN Charter by permitting non-democratic states to be members. That's like letting Felons and murderers have the right to vote and serve in government. Hawk

That's like letting Felons and murderers have the right to vote and serve in government. I've already expressed my views about US troops serving under UN sanctioned leadership. It should be carried out through a treaty organization like NATO or SEATO. Hawk
