What a load of elitist, narcissistic, bovine excrement.
The UN: Hey, we may be corrupt and incompetent, but at least we want to take over the world!
The problem seems to be that many on the left and in the "multilateralist" movement see themselves as "citizens of the world" and see the UN as the objective arbiter of world disputes. But the many shortcomings of the UN, and many of its mambers, are well-known to the readers on this board, so I won't repeat them all here.
Nothing on Earth is perfect. Utopia does not exist. Actually, it is the US, NOT the UN, which is the force for peace and justice in the world, IMHO. But other countries like France are resentful, and part of their stated policy is to oppose us merely for the sake of opposing us.
What do we teach our own young people about this country? I would bet that many history and "civics" textbooks, and teachers/professors, are hopelessly slanted to the left. So is it really the fault of young people why some think the way they do? It's fed to them.
I know what I believe. But I think it's useful once in a while to try to figure out why others think differently, so we can counter them more effectively and change more minds.
