i never said that the U.N was set up to assist wars, i said it legalised them for the bigger countries, so when israel for instance invades palestine the U.N says get out and then america says no and it vetos it, so it becomes legal for israel to invade, get me
and yeh in ukraine it was caught out, but how do u know that the new one was done lawfully, and its not just ukraine, americas elections was bull, everyone knows al gore had won the elections in 2000 and suddenly on the last couple of days bush ends up winning, bull bull bull

wtf? the polls were showing that gore and bush were very close and duh they were.

U know why america, russia, england, china, japan are given veto power? because they have the power to say no, with or without the UN.

Japan doesn't have veto powers.
It was proposed that they be in a larger group (incl. Egypt, Brazil, etc.) that have veto powers in the future.

whatever, who cares if japan does or doesn't?

I've seen the movie fahrenheit 9/11, i've also seen the websites & books which contradict it with their own facts.... don't be stupid and fall for that propaganda shit it's all a bunch of lies :rolleyes:

Do you think the 04 election was bs too? cuz it doesn't really make sense that people who felt ripped off in their vote would come out and vote for him this time.

Of course there's corruption in everything, even the government.
This is why we cannot give the government so much control over ever part of our lives, it's better to allow private organisations that can be looked into by the government and other organisations to run their business the way they would have it.

well still, i support the UN :)

what i am concerned about, (and why o put this thread up)
is that the alturistic actions of thousands of UN volunteers and professionals can be compromised to a variable degree, or even halted completely due to the corruption in the beaurocracy!

the UN was created after WWII because after WWI, the league of nations, failed to stop another deadly war. IF the UN fails, what will we call the next globally interactive organisation?
