Because the UN supports terrorism and slavery.

Right, Kofe? Or have you told President Bush about who at the UN had these calendars?

You go right ahead posting that picture (wtc) as many times as it takes. Every time I see it my blood boils to see these people...these AMERICANS who are caught in the dilemma of whether to burn to death or fall 100 stories.

These are men and women whose little children hoped against hope for days that their Mommy or Daddy would come home soon, and never did.

I want to present this picture to everyone who calls for "peace."

"If this was known, why did the UN Security Council fail to approve a resolution authorizing the use of force by the United States?"

Because the UN supports terrorism and slavery.

Because the UN is composed of dozens of nations, all of which define "terrorism" and "human rights" by differing standards.

All of this was known about the Taliban for years. Nobody who was paying any attention at all considered them anything other than pure scum.
Unfort, one of the problems was that there were few alternatives. The people that the Taliban replaced (many of whom are now joined up with our friends, the Northern Alliance!) were at least as bad.

The whole situation is viciously complicated. Until we were forced into action by Sept. 11, America didn't really want to get too involved, either.
