Quick, call the French. I'm sure that if we get some sort of observers there we can get it solved in several months.

The UN can't even protect its own interests...I assume they thought WE would look after their building...is there consideration now being given to forming a "UN" army (France, Germany, Russia) to "punish" the US and Britain for its "trangressions"?

And the German and the Russian embassies. They are in sore need of a good old-fashioned ransacking right about now. :)

"Fox News just showed cheering looters yelling "No More Saddam!" and "Down with Saddam!" while stripping the UN headquarters bare."

Funny, they are associating Sadaam with the UN, LOL! Where did they get that notion?

First, the US should go to those embassies and gather some documentation of the activities of france, russia, and germany. Then let the looters have at it...

The people of Iraq hate the UN with a passion for keeping them in horrific torture and slavery for so long.

Wait until the Iraqis fully learn of the treachery of the French, including their long support for the tyrant Saddam. I suspect those multi-billion dollar deals with the French oil companies may come under a little review, as with the debt owed to the French from Saddam.

Can you say "FU France" in Arabic?

I believe a new Iraqi government will cancel the debt owed France and Russia by Saddam...

If Saddam actually survived, he would have a bright future as the next leader of the UN. Leftists around the world would be estatic.

Maybe he'll run for Secretary General, if he hasn't given up the ghost already.

The Iraqis who will take command will be sorely permanently pissed at all those who supported Saddam. Bad career move for Chirac.

It may be that the Iraqis will not want the U.N. anywhere near their country.

The Iraqis may see the U.N., France, Germany as pro Saddam.

GOOD!!! For all the suffering the UN allowed these people to endure for 12 long years, the least they can do is give em some spoiles.

Damn! I was hoping to buy one of those and put a big "No" symbol over the UN lettering.

"Most of the 100 UN Jeeps have been stolen."

Last night, Rick Leventhal reported last night, seeing someone driving one of those UN SUV'S. I cracked up laughing!!

I saw a whole family spin around the square in one of those gorgeous NEW Beamers! I hear the UN has three of them.

I also heard they looted and destroyed the UN office in Basra last week.

Think they know something about the UN that the American media don't?

I hope those looters have the common sense to save the incriminating paperwork.

There should not so much good news on one single day. I don't think my heart can take it.

Thank God for the courage and foresight of our President and our troops. Thank God for you, George W. Bush.

Well, not now and not tomorrow.

But you can bet if we allow the UN to continue to exist, these states and others will try to put together some kind of muscle to push us and the UK around.

And, unlike some here say, it isn't Cameroon and Syria, it's China, Russia, and Germany-and yes, I think they could cause us trouble-particularly if the EU can conquer the UK.

Looting is wrong. Always. Although I'd like to hope that the dolts at the U.N. might get a message, I seriously doubt it.
