I'll take 'Yes' for $800, Alex.
Or you can get raw with these strings. Either way, the violin is sweet yet lethal.

AS a case of lunatics taking over the asylum, it would be hard to beat the announcement that North Korea has assumed chairmanship of the UN Conference on Disarmament, the premier world body charged with the cessation of the nuclear arms race and prevention of nuclear war.
That's right: the wacky regime that constantly violates the UN's nuclear controls, is the target of UN sanctions, and is the leading proliferator of nuclear technology to Iran and Syria is now putatively in charge of the organisation responsible for negotiating multilateral arms control agreements such as the Biological and Chemical Weapons Conventions and the Fissile Material Cut-Off Treaty.

Nothing makes sense anymore. Why would the Useless Nincompoops be any different?
Is the retart who axed this qwestion a dumbass ?
This is a rhetorical question, right? LOL
WHY NOT?
The UN should go whole-hog:
Deport the UN
No, it is evil.
Stark Raving Mad would be an improvement.
The monsters that infest the halls of the u.n. are evil.
If they were mad, occasionally they would do something right if only by simple random chance.
yes. next question, please.
Yes.
It has been for decades; why is anyone surprised?
The UN is the creature of the Progressive wing of the American Establishment, including Alger Hiss and all of that crowd.
Can anyone really be surprised at the intellectual amd moral bankruptcy of this Frankenstein’s monster.
Yes, but we provide the UN billions of dollars a year to perpetuate this madness!
