None.  Why would you make a nation that is completely insignificant a permanent member of the SC?  Why need to get rid of some that are already there.

After understanding a lot of your posts you would like USA to leave. Would you even care who would take your place?


And what could you do about it if 2/3 of the UN would vote for this? Veto it?......:lol

After all, looking at the "Iraq" support, 30 out of 191, is rather "insignificant",,,,,,,,,,

Not that I expected more.

The  problem is that Third World countries are gaining more and more control of the United Nations.  Since the majority of these countries are full of Violent, Stupid, Self-destructive people it's really hard to see the point of caring one way or the other.  

Better to just get out and forget it ever happened...

No, because they aren't a world power.

It certainly is the essence.  Are you even aware of why there are permanent SC members?

To have them be electable is pure idiocy.  It takes the UN that much further into the absurd.

Ok, after waving goodbye to Martlet , who just set of for a fishing trip, lets return to the Issue.

South Africa, a country Supressed by apartheid for many year, will it make history, taking a chair in the Security council?

Or will it be the "Arab" country Egypt?

Nigeria is a Dictatorship? (if it wasīnt changed since I last heard of it. "Yellow cake" might also say a little.)

I give South Africa my bet of grabbing that chair of as a permanent in SC. Something that Africa deserves.

Why not Sudan?
Why not Uganda?
Why not Sierra Leone?

What guidelines are they planning on using for membership?

Population?
GDP?

Do they get a veto?

Do they get more than one vote ?
