I do not blame the UN for this. I do think it's unrealistic for those who think the UN will solve all the world's wars. Don't tell me you are naive enough to believe the Arabs were ever going to send troops, are you?

The Kerry-hating has begun in earnest already, and the election is still two weeks away. Incredible. I remember a time when we supported the President because he was President, not unconditionally, of course, but we hoped the Presidency succeeded in benefitting the nation. We knew that was in our best interest. Vietnam, Watergate, the silly BJ-gate, and now Iraq has changed everything. There is no longer faith in government, or leadership. Are we less naive, or is government inherently less ethical?

kind of ironic that the libs here regularly compare our president to hitler and mussolini, yet I'm the hater, don't you think?

well it is the UN, seriously why cant you blame the organization that cant get support for itself?

if the UN fails in darfur, cant you blame the UN?

if the UN makes sure palestinians cant even get the chance to live normally in lebanaon and egypt and syria, why cant you blame the UN since they are the UN's refugee group?

when the UN screws up, cant you blame them?
