The question, he said, is whether countries want the world to be run by small groups of economically and politically powerful nations or "by the only legitimate global institution that we have, and that is the UN."This ought to scare the living crap out of you...for a whole host of reasons.
First, it totally discounts the concept of sovereign nations. Secondly, it is a thinly veiled initiative to remove the five permanent members with veto power; the United States, Russia, China, Britain and France (probably in favor of full rotating members without veto power so that the usual despots, tyrants, and anti-semitic cesspools can dictate the soft Jihad more efficiently). Thirdly, any time the word "legitimate" and "UN" occurs in the same sentence I go into convulsions.
On a bright note...the UN has not accomplished anything of substance and importance in a long, long time. I doubt that they will accomplish anything in reference to the Security Council. Instead, they have become the anti-Hallmark institution of "strongly worded letters of disproval."
Here's an idea...put Israel on the permanent member list with veto power...I'll get behind that.
