U.S. should walk out of the United Nations

Admittance of Palestine is the last straw

Why do western democracies such as the United States remain in the United Nations? After all the politically charged decisions made by this disgraceful organization, it’s often difficult to understand the reason.

Perhaps the West’s laissez-faire attitude toward this growing cesspool of political activity is finally coming to an end. A highly controversial decision with respect to a volatile part of the world could be the proverbial straw that breaks the camel’s back.

Two weeks ago, the U.N. overwhelmingly granted statehood to Palestine. An astonishing 138 member states supported this motion, with 41 abstaining and five not present during the vote. Only nine member states rejected this motion: Canada, the Czech Republic, Israel, the Marshall Islands, Micronesia, Nauru, Panama, Palau and the United States.

Palestine is therefore recognized as a “nonmember observer state,” one of only two in this particular categorization. (The other is the Holy See.) Even though this decision has been widely interpreted as a symbolic gesture, it is far more than that. For one thing, it allows Palestine to exert greater influence and move a step closer to member state status. While they can’t participate in formal U.N. votes, the Palestinian territories will be allowed to seek membership in various U.N. agencies, bodies and committees.

This is a ridiculous decision on the part of the U.N. Palestine is not a country, and is not even close to becoming one. It has played a major role in contributing to the Middle East becoming a powder keg over the past few decades. The contentious Gaza Strip is run by the Palestinian organization Hamas, a vicious terrorist group that would like nothing more than to obliterate Israel, the United States and other western democracies. Meanwhile, Mahmoud Abbas, the president of the Palestinian National Authority, has been an ineffective leader in terms of negotiating with the Israelis as well as dealing with the threat of Hamas.

LOL, Phil, but you've got a point. Aspirin, not developed by Big Pharma, but by prayerful monks, is one of the few meds not subject to recall or altered use...

And yes, it's white and it works -so invent a rare reaction (reyes disease) and obliterate it from memory!

Robin,

"Drop em a spoon and say GOOD RIDDENCE............."

What a waste!  Of a perfectly good spoon!

Robin,

Don't bet on it!  They'll charge you with contaminating the ground water.  Fine you for that, and then make you fill it in, and get a permit, with an application fee, which they will deny at least the first four times.  Then there will be conditions, which require inspections, which YOU must pay for.  Or fill it in.

Living in the USA is great. Can't even shit in the woods. And people here believe that there is a political solution. We are already well inside the nightmare. It is not coming; it is here. The republican just affirmed my belief that they are communists too.

[Phil Rains]

ain't it the damned truth..... you said it all Ladybard..

I wish I were wrong, Phil, but the land and asset grab, the deprivation of rights, the suppression of Judeo Christian culture and art are global and viral...
