Well, we could always withdraw out of the UN....Their Resolutions are just so much fog, and gas. After 17 Resolutions, telling Saddam that he had to do what he said he was going to do, and he didn't, eventually either the US and the others who thought the UN still meant something, decided to honor their obligation. Just one of the reasons, but it was certainly one of the reasons. I notice that not many countries are rushing to the African countries where hundreds of thousands of people are getting killed. Isn't Canada part of the UN too? Is Canada going to send people to Africa to help people escape the madmen? Does the world always rely on the US to do everything? Or are other countries going to step up to the plate and honor their commitments?
