U.N. troops 'die in Congo ambush'

to the Bangladesh troopers that died and my condolences to their families.

Now, what will the UN do about this?
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!

UN might pull the peacekeepers out.

In the end you should be thankful for those players like us who switch to try and help keep things even because our willingness to do so, helps a more selfish, I want it my way player, get to fly his latewar uber ride.

Completely irrelevant.  I wouldn't be in the UN.  WTF do most Americans care about the Congo?  We have no business there, particularly if it puts troops in jeopardy.

The short answer? Nothing.

The only thing the UN really has to influence with is trade sanctions. Those don't quite apply in this case since it's inter-tribal warfare that doesn't appear to be government sponsored in this attack. Withhold medical relief? Nope. Too inhumane. Withhold food supplies? Nope. Too inhumane. Send more peacekeepers to wander around in a country that statistically has been more dangerous than Iraq, and has be going at it for 6 years? Most likely.
