If This Isn't the Pot Calling the Kettle Black...

President Robert Mugabe, of Zimbabwe spoke at a U.N. function in Rome to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the U.N.'s Food & Agriculture Organization. It would seem Bush and Blair are Unholy men and no better than Hitler and Mussolini. This from a dictator who steals the farms and plantations from Whites to give them to Blacks. This from the man who can't even get elected without tinkering with the process. But then he's in good company at the U.N.

The U.S. Should pull up stakes and leave the U.N. Stop paying our dues and ask them to relocate to France, Cuba, Haiti, anywhere but New York. We should then start a new world body whose membership would include only those nations with a record of...

      Free and fair elections that include women & minorities
      An established record of supporting human rights
      Supporting human dignity, and personal property rights
      The right of free expression
      The freedom to worship as one chooses

I could, of course list more, but the point is, many of the rogue, semi-respectable nations that now infect the U.N., who hate America and her prosperity, would be denied inclusion. The U.N. would become irrelevant-- even more than they are now --and perhaps this New World Body could actually achieve something of lasting, decent, value.

It'll never happen though.

No EL what you would get would be the world split in two. Each body passing resolutions denouncing the other. Such a move would only increase world tensions.
Countries unable to join the US clique would only be driven to greater depths by the poor company they would be left with.

The world is already split. Each body already denounces those not in their clique. Tension in the world increases daily. There are countries unable to join the U.N. even now. The world is sinking minute by minute into depravity and woe.

Close your eyes to it if you wish, this is still a free country.

Furthermore, is it so unreasonable to insist that member nations cease their despotic rules and enter the company of civilized peoples? You seem to care more about supporting a corrupt institution than you care about demanding corrupt nations reform themselves. The UN should hold these corrupt nations accountable. Instead, we have "Oil-for-Food," and "Sexual Abuse by UN "Peacekeepers" ."

It does no one any good to "take our ball and go home." That's a childs response when things don't go your way. America doesn't have the right to force its values and systems on the rest of the world. We are not some divinely sanctified emperor. We can work to use our influence to encourage other countries to follow our lead, but to do that you have to have a dialog. Two competing world bodies would not be a dialog, It would be two axis's squaring off for the next world war.

Continuing to support a system that systematically fails, is a foolish waste of money, time and effort.

And in case you haven't noticed they world is already at war.

Uhm-hmm. India and Pakistan are just moments from firing nukes toward Europe and America. The world is not at war.

Today's fundamentalist Christians and Muslims would like the world to be at war. You've said it yourself, "We should go over there and forcibly convert everyone to Christianity. Only then will you have peace"

This is simillar to early America's efforts to convert Native-Americans to Christianity, and that was certainly one of our nations shining moments.
