The United Nations Drifts Further Out To Sea

The United Nations and various European countries - especially France and Germany - have recently expressed their desire for extensive UN involvement in post-liberation Iraq. That would be a mistake, in my opinion. However, it probably won't happen because, after the carnival of absurdities that recently passed for UN "action," it is almost inconceivable that Britain and the United States would give up their power to govern post-liberation Iraq in favor of the buffoons in the glass box - or some UN proxy. But that's just what France seems to be insisting on. If France keeps it up, there should be no substantal UN involvement in Iraq at all. That will further establish the need for a complete overhaul of the UN - the need to end the UN as we know it. All of which, as noted here and in prior posts, would be just fine.

Thanks, Jacques!
