Any group of UN troops not led and run exclusively by an American Military Officers and NCOs is by definition a gang of cowards, thieves, perverts, and murderers. Whether it is deserting helpless civilians to be massacred in tribal genocide, actively raping children, stealing food from the starving, black market activity and gun-running, nothing is to low or despicable for the Blue Helmets to descend to. Whenever liberals discuss the UN as a peace keeping organization, I remember their countless innocent victims, whose numbers already are greater than all the Japanese killed by the 2 atomic weapons needed to end WW 2 (for those who might be tempted to describe the Japanese as victims, it is important to remember that the Japanese killed more civilians in Nanking in 1933 than died in both atomic blasts combined, including using pitchforks to slaughter infants. Even the German Ambassador was sickened by the slaughter of the Chinese and why Japan remains hated in most of Asia. My apologies for not mentioning the hundreds of thousands of Filipinos and other native peoples and the tens of thousands of British and American POWS murdered as well by the Japanese.)

I hate to feed the troll, but lgm evil is as evil does and currently the BBC has been acting very evil. They support terrorists and fascists. They regularly support anything anti-Jew or anti-Captialism. They love raw power and are jealous of those who have it and spend as much time as possible sucking up to them.

Have you driven past the UN lately? It’s a hovel. Put some paint on at least!

Save the paint. . . just close it, withdraw (including the U.S. funds associated with membership), give them a 30 day eviction notice and sell the building to some developers at market value.

I think that Mark Steyn expressed it best when he noted that the UN was filled with both good and bad countries. The initial hope was that the bad countries would try to rise up to meet with good countries. That is like mixing milk and poop. It doesn’t make the poop taste like milk, it makes the milk taste like poop. Such is the UN.

I think you guys practice hating every morning, just like the hate rallies in 1984 (the book). Whatever faults the BBC may have, it is not an evil organization.

Spoken by a practiced Christian hater. Spoken like a person whose sole purpose on this blog is to demonstrate how much he hates not only Conservatives but people who don’t fall in line with his beloved Democratic Socialist Party.

When you say stuff like this, I begin to wonder how “neutral” you are in the classroom, lgm. This statement is amazing given the level of vitriole you practice on a daily basis.

If you were to look in your mirror, your reflection would be laughing at you.

Well, the way the UN dealt with crises like the Congo and Darfur is a pretty good indicator of where their priorities lie.

My question is: why haven’t we booted them the hell out of the US yet? Put them in a neutral territory that can abide their corruption, say Geneva, Switzerland. I’m sure third world dictator bullion and UN graft will be perfect together there.

The UN is theoretically a good idea. Unfortunately, it quickly became a magnet for that particular brand of smooth-talking, sleek, do-nothing, corrupt, diplomat who pervade the governments of the World. They feather their own nests, make sure their families and friends are taken care of, and they could care less about the problems of the World. Kofi Annan is a prime example. The problem is exacerbated by the apparent lack of internal and external policing mechanisms with teeth.

Almost forgot … First ABC holding an (almost?) actual D E B A T E and not allowing candidates to pat each other on the back? Larry King asking real questions? Now the BBC biting one of the hands that it panders to?

It’s a Mad Mad Mad Mad World we live in LOL

UNimportant

UNnecessary

UNwanted

Nowhere will you find a more retched hive of scum and villains (Paraphrasing)

Refunds for the American taxpayers AND a promise to UNburden us from this costly tumor growing on our nickel. Am I the only one that is UNappreciative of their misguided “concerns”?

“Every incident of misconduct by the Blue Helmets diminishes public confidence in our work and weakens the institution of peacekeeping.”

What they’re really saying here is, “every incident of misconduct that’s reported diminishes public confidence”.

The U.N. is so inept that they can be ignored like some bug crawling around in the dirt.

Sorry havok, they can't be ignored, because taxpayers are paying to keep this bug alive. The money could be put to much better use. But, I take your point.

Really?
No mention of the havoc wreaked by the Islamics in the country. Way to gloss over a monumental problem…

I’m not sure what you are refering to here, but we have a media that cares more about Hanna Montana’s back then the people with out health care. And what about all the other missing children? Why does the news media concentrate on only the few? Is it money or just lazyness?

BBC = useless, leftwing propaganda machine
UN = worse than useless, anti-semitic, dictator protecting, corruption machine
I’m not sure my enotion is hate. Only the sad understanding that the world would be much better off without either. Oh. And no more Jimmy Carter also.

Recently the BBC actually stirred itself to look into corruption by U.N. peacekeeping troops in Congo. Apparently they were speculating in local gold, detaining residents unlawfully (just like Gitmo? No, unlawfully) and according to the BBC (but denied by the UN) assisting gunrunners who were arming the rebel militias.

I’m so use to the bbc inciting hatred against the U.S. and Israel, especially in the UN and the Mideast, that I was actually surprised to read this story.

Apparently the UN’s actions in the Congo were so egregious that not even their number one cheerleader, the bbc, could continue to ignore them in good conscience. (Who knew they had one, a conscience that is.)
