#2 Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe

There is an oxymoron if I ever heard one.

#4 Despite the UN pouring troops and billions of dollars into Kosovo since June 1999 political unrest and violence are on the uprise. Most American, UK. and German citizens do not approve of the current UN administration and demand a timetable to end the Quagmire. Sources from whithin Kofi's staff say all is bleak and that we are all doomed.

#5 Substitute "they" for "we" in that last sentence and you've got it, methinks.

The UN is DEAD. Fatally flawed from it's inception, it "passed on" rather quietly at least 30 years ago. The chattering classes, intelligentsia, elitists, multiculti and tranzi tools pulled off a takeover, the Vulture Elite as the sorely-missed Diplomad so succintly put it, and have been peddling the lie that the stink is, actually, a rare and precious perfume. Lol. Fuck. It's obviously a giant corrupt dead rat on the kitchen floor, that is if you haven't drunk the Kool Aid.

#8 M4D - Mrs D long ago made the perfect case for bilateral agreements. No "world" org would work - and only maybe a loose org (coalition of the willing & able) of a handful of true democracies could work and actually succeed in accomplishing worthwhile things - like stopping genocide (think: Rwanda / Darfur) and thugicide (think: Zimbob). We can split hairs forever, but what would work is more than what I'm willing to try and define, here, now - I'll cop-out by saying perhaps it's like art and smut - you'll know it when you see it (in action), lol! Toss the two failures onto the ash heap - and learn from them. The very same valuable lesson is probably going to be missed in the EU. They've been handed an "out" on a silver platter, but instead they'll probably force it and play a mulligan. Me - I'd walk away, thank my lucky stars, and hit the practice range till I was ready for a water hole.

RD - Thx! I actually worked on that for a little while - and hesitated to post it cuz it clearly targets pseudo-allies, too - and some around here are not ready for that, yet. I was mildly surprised by the lack of response, to be honest, because it was clearly an open challenge. They're still into putting their personal self-image ahead of making hard choices and choosing State Dept style accommodation and wishful thinking, something I just won't agree with ever again. I'm curmudgeonly and incorrigible, lol. It's impossible to call a spade a spade without wounding the "bystanders", apologists, and symps too. The professional hand-wringing crowd hasn't gotten anywhere near that far, yet. Sigh. Long way to go... I wonder how many will die before they "get it"... Because of what and how I post, nasty stuff in a pointed manner, I'm something of a shit magnet, lol! Because of that, your comments are doubly appreciated, but it'll prolly get you shot, too, lol!

#10 Can you really blame any of these people for blowing up the buildings of 2 of the most useless organizations on the planet?!
I can't.
It was probaby blown up by the mutual assent of all parties.
Now the UN will have to go elsewhere for hot teenage girls.
How come Bill Clinton never gets called on creating this "quagmire" with no "exit strategy"?
And we're on the wrong side, too!
"Clinton lied, people died."
