The UN is as worthless as t*ts on a boar...or as an Obama in the White House.

A UN “warning” is only slightly scarier than a box of kittens

Doesn't sound like anyone over 'there' is playing 'nice' at all.

Well it certainly isn’t on Turkey’s side when another country shells them. Turkey could wipe out Syria in a day.

“A UN “warning” is only slightly scarier than a box of kittens”

But the UN warning is more amusing.

If the UN had existed in 1939, the entire world would now be divided into two entities: The Stalinists and the Nazis.

I could imagine Iran is very upset by all this. Assad is losing his hold on power, and fighting with Turkey, and both were supposed to be part of a territorially contiguous axis between Iran, Lebanon, Syria and Turkey, and maybe Iraq thrown in for good measure if they can get el Sadir’s faction to beat the followers of Sistani, and take over the country. Instead, they’re having civil war within Syria and border skirmishes with Turkey. How will they utterly demolish Israel now? The Jooos! must be behind it./teehee
