United Nations

Lets hear it for the UN. It seems they're at it again. The UN is blaming the US for problems in Afganistan re prisioner treatment. How long is it going to take us to learn. We have been carrying them financially for sixty years and all we've gotten for it is grief.

In crisis all they have ever lent to the fray was their name. Korea - the UN in forces were what? A few Brits, a few Turks and a few asorted others. Were the French there? Don't think so. In Viet Nam all we got from them was grief. In the "Cold War" - no help the Russians had the veto and their allies. All we've ever gotten from the UN is the bill.

The idea floated a short time ago seems smart to me. Get out of the UN. Form a new association of free democratic nations with mutual ideas of freedom and justice as we do and go from there. It probably won't happen but its a damn good ideal
