Title: Let the UN rule the USA
Post by: NUKE on March 22, 2003, 10:42:01 AM
I wish we could somehow beg the UN and make them agree to rule the USA. If the UN controlled the US, we would live in absolute security, safe in the knowledge that we are ruled by a world body that really knows how to keep the world safe and prosperous.

The UN has a great history of checking the world's evil and a wonderful history of inovative peackeeping.

I pray that the US never upsets the UN. I fear the UN's awesome power almost as much as I fear France's opinion.

I am saddened in the knowledge that the US is only viable if the UN would be so inclinded to bless us with their supreme guidence.

Pray for the UN everyone.......... we have no other hope on earth.

Yes, interesting. I doubt the guys that need to read it will, though. If they did, it won't change their minds.

Best lines in it:

Quote
In 1993, Alija Izetbegovich, then the beleaguered president of Bosnia-Herzegovina, explained his feelings to me in the starkest possible manner: "Only the Americans could save us from annihilation. If they do not come, there will soon be no Muslims left in the former Yugoslavia. The Europeans will debate until we are all dead."


Ties right in with the discussion I'm having with Hristo in another thread. ;)

Well, I would sleep better at night knowing that patrols of Somali and Libyan soldiers were protecting our Northern borders from mobs of drunken Canadian cow tippers.

"Those Euros are so evil and we are so great!"

Some people are taking on the mantle of those they have issues with.

"DEATH TO YUROP, Y'ALL!!!!"

That kind of thing.

Fact is Euro's will debate an issue until it has spun out of control. See: Hitler   Euro fools: "Let's talk about it, maybe it will go away."
You turds are irrelevent militarily, unless we decide to let you in, and it chaps your hide.  Call me all the names you want to make yourself feel better. Your impotence is on the world stage and there's not  a damned thing you can do about it. Take it!  I'd be humiliated if I were a Frenchman... with France exposed for the non-factor of a country that it is.

And sink to your level? Not likely; freefalling has never appealed to me.

Steve actually i'm really proud to be french today. You seems to forget that the majority of the world is against the US England Coalition attacking Iraq...
Don't think we are pro-Sadam, we don't like him as much as you do, we just don't kill thousands and thousands of innocent to remove him.
You can spit on us and throw your arrogance on our face, you still are the beligerent (sp ?).

And i second Dowding on his answer.

You got a source for those figures, or is that just hypberbolic rhetoric?

And I am serious about the question, and I expect you to provide a source for those figures.

Common, you don't think wars (and specially carpet bombing) don't kill people ?
Jesus, i call that being blind.

War kill people guys. Never forget that.

I don't think they'll be carpet bombing anyone.

Innocent people will die, no doubt, but hopefully they will be few - as they have been so far.

I'm more concerned with how they are going to get humanitarian aid in.

And how are we going to kill thousands and thousands of innocent people?

No, you just sit idly by while Saddam kills thousands and thousands of innocent people.

The majority of the world can be against us... the beauty of it is that we are the big kid on the block and get to do whatever the hell we want.  Thank God for that, you girls would hand over your house keys if someone walked up and demanded you give them.  We'll take care of business while you girls cry foul and say we should debate it more.  I bet you clowns are still debating what to do w/ Hitler.

As for whether this is the correct thing to do... it seems the Iraqi people are quite pleased with what we are doing.  

Spitting on the French.. that takes more effort than they are worth... you losers would just take the gesture as getting attention and demand I spit on you again.
Your days as a force in the world are over... take it!!!

But, you let thousands and thousands die if you leave Saddam in power.  Quite the conundrum, huh?  Don't let yourself think you are anymore innocent or have any less blood on your hands.

Hell, Jaques .... the majority of the world didn't even know it happened. Most of `em don't even know there is an Iraq. Most of `em would kill for a Big Mac. Even a French one.

You're almost as funny a frog as Kermit ... only goofier. :D

first of all we haven't killed thousands and thousands of innocent people.

even saddams own ministry of information has come up with a figure of 207 which is, of course, bull****.

secondly saddam's own people are saying that HE has killed *millions* of innocent people.

but perhaps you are looking for employment as saddams new minister of information, I think you are better at it then that idiot is.

 now why don't you get back out on the street and loot a store or beat up a family or defecate on a corner somewhere, until the janitor comes along to clean up your mess and you surrender to him.

From the BBC:


Quote

Umm Qasr is a vital port in the coalition jigsaw since - as soon as the authorities have secured the port and town and opened the waterway - it will give access to thousands of tonnes of humanitarian aid currently sitting on ships in the Persian Gulf.

Extra measures will have to be taken before that can happen, including checking that the waters have not been mined.

Also, there are suggestions that a number of ships may have been scuttled in some of the deeper channels.

A team of divers is expected to move in over the next few days.




Guess they were concerned about it before you.  ;)

Planning function; part of the whole effort from the get-go.
