Do You think the UN is Dead after the United States invaded Iraq?
 

Were they always dead? Did they ever have an important role? How did the iraq war change the UN's role?

DISCUSS.... i'll add my opinions throughout the thread

the UN has been a joke for years. their total and complete corruption is what sealed their fate, not the fact that the US ignores them. the US is soverign, we do not answer to the UN, they, and the rest of the world, need to understand that.

I agree, however, how can an international governing body ever exist then, corruption or not?

Re: Do You think the UN is Dead after the United States invaded Iraq?
 

the point is that its not a "governing body" because it has no authority.

The US is indeed sovereign, as is every other country in the UN. The sovereignty of nations is not something the UN ever agreed to contest or override. This is pretty explicitly stated in the charter. FYI

And many in the conservative camp advocate racism and eating out of Limbaugh's butt. Hyperbole? Sure. Not very different from your post.


What liberal said that they want the UN to make major decisions for us? What liberal said that they want the UN to make decisions about our health care, education, and military?


Come back when you can post a real argument instead of crap that you heard on Fox News.

Re: Do You think the UN is Dead after the United States invaded Iraq?
 

It amazes me when people slam Fox News, without actually watching it. I know a lot of people who say that they can't watch the "garbage" of Fox News. And they don't watch it, yet they say that it is horrible. How can you hate something without being familiar with it.

This is not in defense of Fox News, btw. Some of the stuff the say is very dumb. However, they are conservative on the OPINIONATED shows. We all know there are other channels out there that fling biased news on "unbiased" shows.

how do you figure racism? its the democratic party that PRACTICES racism.

just about every major liberal politician did not want us to act in iraq with getting authorization, yet they voted for it anyway.

you have been brainwashed by the press. i suggest you watch more fox news. they are at least fair in their reporting. they dont fabricate stories like the NYT has been known to do.

Re: Do You think the UN is Dead after the United States invaded Iraq?
 

however you want to spin it, it's not the democratic party that draws support and thus owes it's allegiance to the real racist factions within this country.

which party do you think klan members vote for? aryan nations?

try to tell me it's the dems! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
