Heard that one before... and like before I had to check.

Out of a web-page full page of posts here ... I'm seein' a black dot beside 4 of them.

That's prolific?

Something different is going on with you... and I'm pretty sure that it has nothing to do with the UN.

So I got an idea.

Make a new post. All about yer greivences about me. Lets do it there. Mmm?

1. Some world cooperation ('till bush and his cronies had to mess it up back in '02, Euros who had business deals with Saddam can be blame too)

2. A better world, avoiding the same mistake like they did with the L.o.N.)

Good article that represents how many people feel. I would bet tho that some americans manages to read this as an anti-american article.

there is nothing anti-american, it just shows the upcoming global,
again global problems.
Of course some here will see it different, most of them represent bush
very vell and his "und nach mir die Sintflut" agenda.
Like you said ;)

Sorry.. but for a long time the us did not pay the requested membership fee to the un, did that change recently?

Also.. the us benefits in form of less war
, possibilities to penalize a country with an embargo and lots of treaties as well as world wide trade.
World wide trate is not possible without political fundamentation.
Sure, the trade is handled due to the WTO activity in the end, but not possible without UN.
And UN military operations. If no UN the US would have gone to some places without UN resolutions, causing them to have less support from other countries, less authority and harder job to get money from other nations for the costs.

"Try to picture a world made up of hundreds of countries, with no one gathering place.... with no embassies... no diplomats... no formal way of communicating."

yep... that would be like this BB without a building to run up bills in and immunity to abuse.

I would like to see the UN building moved to norway.

Moving entire buildings is not very cost effective, but hey you do it your way.

well... we could demolish the one that is here or turn it over to the housing authority for drug addicts housing and then build a platinum studded building in norway for the UN scumbags to live in and be money ahead.
