Evildoers, here we come

Iran is very much in the US spotlight at present over concerns that it is developing nuclear weapons, with much talk of "regime change". Over the next four years of the second George W Bush term, any of a number of countries could come into the crosshairs - Syria, Saudi Arabia and "axis of evil" original North Korea. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- in a releated story... US and Iraq All Set for Strike against Syria. Israel Is Braced for Hizballah Second Front http://www.debka.com/article.php?aid=964 Therefore, the key Middle East happening in the coming weeks will be US military strikes against Syria. The election of Mahmoud Abbas as Palestinian Authority chairman, his invitation to the White House, the formation of the Sharon-Peres government coalition - albeit on very shaky legs, and the talk of imminent Israel-Palestinian peace negotiations, will prove to be no more than sideshows of the main event. a right wing and a left wing news site talking about the same thing. is that good or bad? |

If the US would only let the UN take care of these things it would all get better. No nuclear proliferation, no terrorism, no human rights abuses. The UN is always eager and willing to fix these problems if the US would just stop it's efforts to do it all itself.

How is one self-serving body better or preferable than another?
