I wouldn't count on anything that isn't related to Iraqi having anything done with it by the US.  On the other hand...does Burma have oil?  If the answer is yes, then it is a possibility!

I had heard that at one time, USA had thoughts of taking in Mexico but with all the poverty it would have just gotten USA too much in the hole.\n\nBut it all does sounds like a good idea.  Would be nice if we all could just be like one & help each other and have no wars.  God bless.  <><

absolutely.  it's called abiding by the nuclear non-proliferation treaty which vietnam and iran have both signed, along with the US and Russia.

I agree with it and I think it will happen. It already has in more enlightened countries and the US will follow eventually.

Of course they do, and they want the U.N. at the helm!\n\nThe United Nations actively pursues anti-American policies and appeases America's enemies, while being largely funded by $3 billion worth of annual American dues. After revealing the depth of rampant corruption in the UN, it is time to recognize the changes in Old Europe and redesign America's alliances that line up with America's national interests. \n\nIf John Kerry and Hillary Clinton have their way, Kofi Annan and Jacques Chirac will gain veto power over American foreign policy. Scared? You should be. It could happen. And in Inside the Asylum, former deputy undersecretary of defense Jed Babbin shows just how it could happen and why the UN deserves the nickname "The Asylum." \n\nIn the Asylum... \n\n* the UN assists international terrorists. Babbin exposes the shocking links between the UN and terrorist organizations. \n\n* The money trail from the UN to Saddam Hussein. It is time to rip the veil from the outrageous Oil-for-Food program-proving that the UN sold its moral legitimacy for oil, stuffed its own pockets at the expense of the Iraqi people, and undermined American pressure on Saddam Hussein: the UN's cash cow. The UN's Oil-for-Food program, provided Saddam Hussein with the means to bribe politicians, to deprive his people of needed food and medicine, and to literally steal billions of dollars. There is even emerging evidence that money from the program might have gone to support al-Qaeda. \n\n• The UN's raid on the American Treasury: dominated by Third World staffers who consider the United States Treasury "the common heritage of mankind." Kofi Annan, the UN secretary-general, is an anti-American moral relativist who misses no opportunity to arrogate power from the United States to the UN. \n\n* The United Nations and the European Union are morally bankrupt-and open enemies of the United States. France and the United Nations have cost American lives in Iraq by their perverse delaying of American action in the Iraq War. American troops are fighting and dying today because of a terrorist strategy Saddam Hussein developed while France and the United Nations delayed Operation Iraqi Freedom. \n\nThe UN is more of an international criminal than a dispenser of legitimate international law. If America wants to retain its sovereignty and security, it's time to escape from the UN asylum and say goodbye to the false friends of Old Europe. We owe no tribute to the UN and the EU, We should not be ashamed and divided to look after our own defense." \n\nThe United Nations building in Manhattan is an international enclave, no longer American territory. Inside the Asylum is a powerful argument that it's time to reclaim that land for America.

This will not happen, because the US will not let it. The US has become aware of this problem and will take steps to avoid this.  Since the illegals have made themselves noticed by protesting for their rights, now the American people have taken notice and will pressure our government to take action.

Surprisingly only the US and its citizens think that the UN is bad, why? For the reason that they stand to lose most of the privelages and standing if an equal ground for every nation was ever to surface with the US not as a veto nation but just a nation among many. The UN is neither inept nor incompetant but it has its powers shackled and retraints placed upon it by the veto power of the security council. Even the latest bid to expand membership to reflect a more current world order was killed due to the old club not wanting to lose their privilages. The UN operates by concensses and it had to give and take before any action can be taken which takes time and mediation, it is also hamperred that for the fact it has no real power such as its own arm forces or ability to impose sanctions without agreement by the security council. The US has not helped by not paying their dues, taking unilateral decisions and even ignoring certain recommendations put forth by the UN. The UN is the only major plural community that nations can depend on and for nations like South America, Africa and Asia, they have seen benefits derived from joining the UN.

Isn't the United Nations a fulfillment of that purpose?

Well ,it is a good question.I believe that United Nations Security Consul has many obligations,in fact it is crated in order to prevent violations and atrocity and to keep peace and security in the world ,but unfortunately peace and security are not totally prevailed!in the world and we blame always US because it makes more decisions in UNSC. I think others permanent members in the counsel has responsibility too,we blame US, UK for there roll but in fact France china,Russia are also have did less or nothing for peace and security in the world which they should have done !!.and this is a big problem .of course it is right that US keep it,s interests but I believe without US ,there will be more dictators,terrorists,atrocity in the world. If we look the policy among different nations then we can understand that only US policy has significant diplomacy and bring nations to dialog which is in my view undeniable, it is all members responsibility in UNSC in order to functions be more acceptable.

Right now Bush told the United Nations that America stands alone. This isn't what the majority thinks, but he and his Administration have separated us from them. So right now that is the policy.

Yes, but I don't expect it to happen. The US supports Israel, regardless of what they do. They regularly veto resolutions against Israel in the UN. They support Israel, the 6th richest country in the world, with 1/3 third of all foreign aid. The Pro-Israel lobby is the largest lobbying group in Washington. We are not interested in solutions to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict because it makes our weapons suppliers a lot of money.\n\nWe overthrow governments to install democracy, but when Palestine democratically elected Hamas, we refuse to deal with them. The hypocrisy is laughable.\n\nWe need to not take sides in the conflict. It is not our fight. Supporting one side while chastising the other is not the way to achieve peace.

It isn't a matter of the USA falling, it is when. The only thing standing between the USA being turned totally over to the UN is the 10th Amendment of the Constitution, States rights. Clinton tried several times to nullify the 10th and failed by Presidential Executive Order. \n\nBush now has the power given him by the USA Patriot Act and other legislation to the point that all he needs to do is sign the already written Presidential Executive Order that will place him as supreme commander of North America. This will nullify the entire constitution. Canada and Mexico will also fall at the same time and North America will become Unit #1. North America will then be under the dictatorship of the United Nations. The rest of the world will fall within the next few days to weeks and become part of the UN.\nForeign troops now stationed in the USA, "for training" will then be put into service and subdue any resistance from the American people...many thousands of Americans will die many thousands more will be in concentration camps already built in the USA!\n\nWhen will this happen? I have been told by a reliable source that I will not recognize the USA or the world by the end of 2007. Will the USA fall at that time? I cannot say, but all the pieces of the puzzle seem to be in place.

Pose your question to the US Department of state, or to your local Embassy.

America, whether under Bush or not, would never join or participate in any pan-National group unless they can use, manipulate and gain from their fellow members.\n\nThe problem with his attempt to engage troops in Afghanistan or Iraq is that the Treaty (ie the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation) may not legally permit such engagement for the reasons posited by Bush.\n\nAnd the NATO leadership may decide Bush's request would be more appropriately sent to the United Nations for troops to keep the peace (which is all UN troops are allowed to do, since they're not permitted to use firearms unless first fired upon).\n\nSo, any request for troops from NATO would indicate an intention to attack first, offensively and in force.\n\nAnd to answer your question, I would have to conclude yes - Bush shall use NATO as a buffer and relief strategy for US troop levels in the region - if, and only if, NATO let him away with it.\n\nBut "we" don't get to decide.  There will be no referendum on the subject, and the decision will be made in our name by people who did not stand for public election and therefore cannot be removed by way of a popular vote.

I'm sure it won't go that far, most probably more diplomatic talks between these veto powered nations. Or maybe, USA might back down a bit.

Rock, you refer to that exclusive club called the Security Council of the United Nations.\n\n5 permanent members are China, France, Russia, UK and USA - with the power to co-opt members as and when necessary.\n\nSince these guys rarely agree on anything, it doesn't matter that no other member Country is permament.\n\nThe full United Nations membership is a different story....
