In light of the remarks made yesterday by the whack job from Iran and the pig from Venezuela, and the response of the other delegates, is it time for the US to kick out the UN?
The US pays 22% of the costs of the UN, why in the world should taxpayers support the kind of hatred that is spewed towards us from the delegates of other countries.
Maybe they should move the UN to Europe. What are your thoughts?
Just because diplomats talk about the US? No the UN should stay, its just grand stading. Unfortunately it’s become a soapbox and not as a way to govern the world body. The UN will become obsolete if it doesn’t grow a back bone. The question should be can the UN become a legitimate ins ution again?
The UN is a tool the US often uses for their goals to expand their empire. YEah it has it's drawbacks, but US get's it's money's worth
I don't get it, throw the UN out because other countries disagree with the US?? what do you think that 22% of the budget is for? buying other countries' support?? Look, I don't agree with either of those sons of es, but what you're saying is moronic!
empire?come on! I do agree the UN is the US' puppet. That is why it has lost much of its credibility and stature as peace keeping en y, but lets not get carried away here.
Did you see and hear the reaction these two guys got from the rest of the delegates from around the world?
These two guys make us look like a bunch of monkeys ing a football!
( a movie quote that seems appropriate)
Is this the first time you heard the US bad-mouthed in the UN? You would've given up the Cold War when Krushchev banged his shoe on the table.
It's not like we'd pay any less to the UN. I do agree that demolishing the obsolete UN building should happen. Whether they choose to stay or we choose for them to stay is another matter. If they stay, they should move to Hoboken or Secaucus.Maybe they should move the UN to Europe. What are your thoughts?
u gotta be in a sorry state if you don't think the US is an empire. Economically mostly, but there are recent hints this will change dramatically.empire?
Does this mean that we are going to start taking over country's? Sweet, the sun never sets on the American empire...........look, I'm pretty sure that we aren't going to go and actually "take over" any nations any time soon, even though our recent actions would compel a conspiracy theorist and America haters to shout that we indeed are, I'm pretty sure that is not our intention..........not even in Iraq.
What's with all the stupid theories here today?
Furthermore, if we are an economic empire (which is just stupid seeing as how we so heavily rely on foreign trade to keep our economy running), then good for us. We've done well.
have you heard of Iraq and Afghanistan??
of course good for us. Just pointing out the fact that we use tools like the UN to make more $$
Yep, we sure are in those countries with the intention of setting up shop and calling it part of the US.
have you heard of Iraq and Afghanistan??
correct
we don't need to. Why complicate ourselves. We can still reap the benefits without the complicationsand calling it part of the US.
That was my point, we aren't there to occupy Iraq and take the country over. Here, go to www.conspiracytheory.org and have a wonderful time.
I can see those benefits rolling in as we speak. Also, when can I expect the US to get all the oil in Iraq? That is why we went there isn't it?
I got a website for you guys www.indenial.com
Instead of exiting the UN, the US should focus on the reasons why ing morons such as Chavez and the Iranian president get cheers from the audience when they bash Bush.
Because they're with the terrorists! All those guys who clapped are getting invaded next.
Something bothers me greatly about foreign leaders bashing America on American soil and getting cheers from other foreigners.
Sorry if that bothers you, that it bothers me.
Technically, it's not American soil.
Technically true. Point taken.
If the UN is so hard up for money, 18 acres of riverfront property in midtown Manhattan could certainly bring in some serious coin.
Another point - these dignitaries come here and enjoy all the pleasures of NYC (restaurants, hotels, theater, and probably some illicit pleasures also), then they turn around and bash us and our capitalistic economy that provides all those pleasures!
So you're saying politicians can be disingenuous?
Shocking.
