US should limit funding of UN to what other countries pay

Something that all the anti-UN folks don't seem to consider - we have enormous clout in the UN. The US almost always gets it's way in influencing world affairs.

Sure...decrease funding. But you might find decreased influence as well.
 
I'd rather we close all our embassies across the world and conduct our foreign affairs in a revamped UN where other countries could do likewise. Seems to me there would be quite some economic savings to this new approach. I also believe a good number of these foreign diplomatic positions are bought through campaign contributions. Have one guy handle the English speaking countries, another the Spanish, and so on. There could be a shared staff and it would cut down the security costs, that's for sure.

Having it moved to Switzerland is also a good idea.
 
Y'all realize that all these "great ideas" for removing American presence from world affairs is opening the door WIDE to China and China is taking full advantage, moving to become a global influencer?

Way to go.

I don't agree. By being a part of the UN we condone the UN. We give extra and they walk all over us.
We need to establish our "worth" with all the Nations of the World. The best way to do that is to withdraw
from the UN.

Force the Nations of the World to deal directly with us. We've got the arsenal to keep all of them on their
toes. The arsenal to threaten any of them. Russia and China have the same veto power as us in the Security Council
that mutes our message and makes our clout moot.

Being in the UN gives lesser Nations a "leg to stand on" in any dispute with us. We'd have a lot more "real" friends/allies
by withdrawing from the UN than remaining in it.

Hence the reason why it’s idiotic.

The neo-isolationism that’s become popular among the right is further evidence that conservatives are incapable of sound, responsible governance.
 
I say: US out of UN, UN out of US.


If the time ever comes for a program of assassination, it would be easier if they are still based here.

Would you care to explain that? As it stands that makes no sense.


Conflict with a non-government, such as a conflict between the US and the UN, it would be stupid for US to just fight the nations that want to fight, and to let the fucking UN administrators, off the hook.


If it ever comes to that point, and I could really see it happening, imo, targeting the want-a-be tyrants in the UN would be appropriate.

The U.N. already has its door wide open for China. The WHO is covering up for China.
 
The right’s unwarranted hostility to the UN is as ridiculous as it is idiotic.



Why do you suppose that Joseph Stalin originated the United Nations?

The U.N. charter was authored by a communist, the first U.N. Secretary-general was a communist, and the U.N., from the beginning, was designed to be a Union of World Socialist Republics.



Stalin's spy, Alger Hiss was the leading force in the designing of the United Nations. He was secretary of the Dumbarten Oaks Conversations from August to October of 1944 where most of the preliminary planning for the U.N. was done. He was Roosevelt's right-hand man in February of 1945 at Yalta where the postwar boundaries of Europe were drawn (Roosevelt was a dying man at the time. His death came only ten weeks later). At Yalta it was agreed that the Soviet Union would have three votes (one each for Russia, Ukraine, and Byelorussia) in the U.N. General Assembly, even though the United States had only one.



.... three years later. Alger Hiss was exposed as a communist spy and sent to prison. Only then did people understand why the emblem of the United Nations looked so much like the emblem of the Soviet Union.

At Yalta much of Europe was placed under the iron heel of communist rule. At Yalta, Churchill, Roosevelt, and Stalin appointed this young diplomatic shining star to be the first Secretary-general of the U.N. for the founding conference held in San Francisco,April/June of 1945.

All of this seemed well and good until three years later. Alger Hiss was exposed as a communist spy...."

You really know less than nothing, huh?
