The only unilateral thing I got from reading the "article" is that the U.N. is JUST AS useless as the League of Nations.

Yup.. as the first thing, UN should bring George W. Bush to Haag's war tribunal. That would make the world respect the UN.

The United States should withdraw from the UN. The UN should be summarily ejected from the United States and deposited somewhere in LaLaland, either the netherlands or belgium.  the next step would be to knock out all of korea's infrastructure with conventional weapons.  that could be accomplished with a single CG.  but the first step would be to privately warn china that we would pull out of their economy if they even squeak a disagreement.  if the chinese get huffy then there's always the three gorges dam that could be bombed.

I would be quite happy for the US to pull out of the UN no matter what the circumstance.   There is no reason to be a part of that farce.

I am one of the ones who said **** the UN.... I see no reason to have changed my mind.

That being said... we can still deal with other countries, friendly and unfriendly.   We don't need a bunch of cannibals on a human rights commitee to do it is all.

If we can't withdraw from the UN and send it to belgium or the some ice bear country then the best thing we can do is to veto any of it's socialist one world, weak resolutions.

I am not so much against the UN because they are weak an ineffective and wrong but against them because they meddle in social issues that are none of their business.

If the member countries are on the same page than by definition the action would be multilateral.

Hear hear, the UN should have kept only to it's orginal intent.  The prevention of wars of agression.
