Is anyone else annoyed with the UN?

The UN is controlled by the security council where the permanent members have a veto.They are first and foremost responsible for any failure of the UN in anything.I admit it's more than annoying but it's also weird to blame the UN as a front to not have to blame the world community.\nThe UN can only be as strong or as weak as its members

The UN doesn't rule the world.  The UN doesn't condemn terrorist attacks against Israel.  The UN blew it's job in Africa, whatever their conditions for war doesn't mean ANYTHING.

I could not agree more.  We are not the policemen of the world.  Let the UN deal with it  (yeah right, as if they could.)

The U.N. is a useless entity. It is internally corrupt and uses it's power to benefit it's members. They make hollow threats to countries and never back their own decisions.

The UN needs to go. It's a waste of money and valuable real estate in NYC. They really don't do anybody any good other than to sponge money from the USA.

The UN has always been a joke.  Recent US actions didnt change that they just pointed out what we all already knew.  I am visiting Bosnia and all the places that were designated UN safe zones where everybody got murdered because they were foolish enough to trust the UN.  Until the UN actually shows it is competant enough to do something (anything) the US and other countries like Iran, North Korea, China, and Russia will just keep doing whatever they want whether you agree with these actions is another question.

Don't forget the Red Cross, Peace Corps, UN, and the thousands of social workers that we send around the planet who ask nothing in return. \n\nYet we are hated by most of the world.\n\nIt's almost like having ungrateful bastard grandchildren isn't it?

The UN has NEVER been effective with anything, it's just a boondoggle

I can't think of 1 issue where the UN has helped the US.  It always seems that the US has to force the UN to do the right thing.  After all the US human rights commitee is made up of countries like cuba & north korea.  The UN is also composed of many nations that fear freedom and democracy.  Besides, how can a gov't control its people when they have the freedom and self determination?

Hands off. We are not the worlds moral police. That's the UN's job. Take care of America first.

Why couldn't the UN? Not only did the UN not try to stop it, the UN authorized it!

The UN is unable to manage much of anything. I doubt whether terrorism can make it sink lower since it can't go lower than it already is.

No it isnt.  Thats just another example of the UN showing its true colors.

Well the answer to that is the same for EVERY question concerning the Un.  They will have a comittee to see if a comitee is needed for a comittee creating comittee.  Then a comittee will be sent to see which comittee gets coffee and donuts.\n   Then they will whine about America and Israel, and form a Kleenex comittee.  Then they will argue about passing a resolution.  5 years later they will ask America to enforce that resolution, and then yell at America for doing so.\n    That is how the Un works now, how the Un has always worked, and how the Un will continue to work.

Republicans do not like the UN. And republican governments have sent in their minions to use the UN as a tool to attain its own goals. Democrats support the UN in its unadulterated form. What you are talking about is a resolution pushed for by a republican US government. Yes, the democrats support the UN and if the UN were to perform as it was originally intended then the 17 resolutions would not be created in the first place. Those resolutions were created under compulsion of the republican government of the USA, so they were in fact not UN but resolutions of the current US government.\n\nYour logic is kind of twisted, even to the point of wickedness. It's almost like this: Person A loves Person B and would listen to Person B because B is peaceloving fellow. You take Person B hostage and force him to ask Person A to attack Person C. When Person A objects, you raise this question, "But you said you support B and his decisions so why won't you shoot A?"\nWell, duh, Person B only issued those orders because you were holding a gun to his head! So in effect they were not B's decision but merely your decision coming out of B's mouth.\n\nWhich part of this don't you understand?
