The UN is a congregation of sycophants, appeasers, and retards. It's completely irrelevant in the world of realpolitik.

You can forget about the UN doing anything about Iran and nukes. China and Russia seem to want them with nukes.


Russia seems to have this misguided notion that it is still a world power. The country under Putin kind of makes me think of Bob Dole peddling Viagra. Big deal, it can wave its dingy around but nobody cares to share a bed with it.

China loves that the world's attention is focused on Iran and terrorism (much of which they supply arms). It keeps people from talking about their massive military buildup.


Ah, China .... the real threat to US interests in the long run......
