"The part I don't agree with is that 'the UN is essentially a debate club for rich countries trying to prevent things they don't like from happening.' I see the U. N. as a organization that is corrupt (see refrences to the Oil for Food program in Iraq)from the top down. An organization that has accomplished little other than spewing a lot of rhetric." Our views are not inconsistent. I was thinking more about probability of a resolution contrary to the interests of one of the five veto powers getting approved regardless of how right or beneficial it might otherwise be. This doesn't paint a very pretty picture of them, either. Sex, drugs and UN peacekeeping
