I hate the UN

I cannot figure out what good things the UN does. In fact, I hate the UN and its "Security Council."

So it's absolutely no surprise to me that someone like Kofi Annan would say, and even maybe believe, that he's not taking sides in an issue like this Israel vs. Hezbullah situation.

Annan and the other clueless folks keep saying that Israel's response has been "disproportionate."

And what, pray tell, would have been "proportionate?"

Would it have been better if Israel had sneaked into Lebanon, killed a couple Hezbullah terrorists and kidnapped a couple more?

Or would that have been considered "continuing the cycle of violence," like it is every time Israel succeeds at a targeted assassination?

No one, including this stupid "security council," comes up with good ideas for Israel to protect itself.

And now, Kofi and his "United Nations" are saying that it's not in their mandate to disarm a terrorist organization. Plus, to add insult to injury, it's going to take "weeks or months" to get an international force in place, instead of days.

So our boys and girls and men and women must remain in enemy territory, under threat, until the UN gets around to putting a force in place that most of us in Israel won't trust anyway.

Yeah, I feel secure.

(Btw, I think it's ridiculous that five countries would have veto power over anything. I think it's ridiculous that a country like Syria could ever get a place on the Security Council. And honestly, what the hell is a "Security Council" for, if it's not to help provide WORLD security in an organization like the United Nations?)
