yep... who says the Un doesn't want to run the US?   Rebbeca Peters,, who heads the anti gun UN NGO that is pressing for global action on civil disarmement..

Unfortunately... she decided to debate with Wayne LaPierre of the NRA at Kings college london.

He got her to admit that she felt that  the U.S. should obey a UN gun ban for private citizens.

basicly... that the U.S. should be under UN rule.

I have read excerpts but I think I will buy the video.

Doesn't surprise me, the UN has been wanting control over the world for some time. What better way than to start with the richest, and most powerful, nation?

It’s almost embarrassing that the US belongs to the UN.  They don’t deserve such an endorsement.  We should pull out and perhaps start something similar in concept, but that isn’t so corrupt and doesn’t suck.

I think we should always endorse and obey what the wise and well run UN dictates.  I think we should become just like our wise European cousins.  I think Kofi Anon is great.

Yet despite the blantant corruption, many leaders rush to hug and cuddle the Secretary General and tell him what a great job he's doing. :rolleyes:

America backed his appointment unlike France which threatened to veto until the last minute.

If you Germans want Kerry you can have him. He'd love to be a president of "something".

The UN


It is also a place where well-connected playboy diplomats from the Third World can indulge in an expense-account lifestyle in one of the richest cities on earth, ignoring the pitiful poverty of their home countries and often using their diplomatic immunity to break the law. This is an insult to the dignity of the human race.

As the UN is now constituted, a far better location for it would be in a city near the gravitational center of the Afro-Eurasian landmass. There it would be close to the realities of the problems it ought to be tackling--poverty; bad, cruel and corrupt governments; international lawlessness; civil wars. The place I'd suggest is Dar es Salaam (though I can think of a half-dozen other equally suitable venues). Having UN headquarters there would hugely reduce the cost of running it and its associated activities from New York. It would also deter the playboy element that is one of the curses of the organization and help persuade both staff and delegations to take their jobs seriously.

Goes to show two things

#1.  We are the most important society on the planet our influence is truly global.

#2.  We Americans are correct (as usual) the rest of the world is wrong.
