Czuch: Tell me how "ineffectual" the UN was in the Persian Gulf War or the Korean War.

Pedro Martínez: Well, of course, you guys are right.... It just gets frustrating sometimes when I see aholes like Kim Jong pulling stunts like this, because he spends so much time being a dick, his own people suffer, and it is we who end up paying to do for them what he neglects

I just think that in the long term, the Iraqi people will be better off, and too the rest of the world, with saddam and his regime gone, and I think the same would be true for the people in North Korea and the wolrd, if little dick was gone as well

Czuch: Well, I just trust that it'll all be sorted in the end. I must say that in recent years a lot of problems have been noted in this world of ours, and that we can't fix them all at once.

Some... will take time. Some are not under our control.. we just have to go with the flow and trust in humanity and that it will prevail in the end.

(V): we just have to go with the flow and trust in humanity and that it will prevail in the end.



I dont mind, really..... its just when "going with the flow" means taking money from responsible hard working people to support people stuck with idiot leaders, and antiquated governments, its throwing good money after bad, and it makes zero sense to me

Czuch: That is a problem getting sorted out. At least over here some of the problems are now being looked into.

I mean... eg The Home Secretary saying her main home is sharing a house with her sister in London.. whilst 'under the rules' over £100,000 has gone in improving her family home as 'under the rules' it is her second home and therefore she can claim 'expenses'.... Like for a £500 sink and a 32" LCD flat screen TV.

Being a politician is such a hard life. ..... NOT

Someone leaked her expense receipts to the press.

(V): only a 32inch??...with that sort of expence budget you would have thought she would go for a bigger one? 60in at least?

even someone without her money can afford a 42inch.

Bernice: I was thinking exactly the same thing. I have a 42-inch TV and my budget is nowhere close to hers.

Pedro Martínez: yes I have one as well LOL

Bernice: Well if the people of the UK get their way, she'll be paying it all back.

If not... she'll be a Titanic for MP expenses on second homes.

(V): your forgetting the 88p she claimed for a plug for a sink

Czuch: Th UN is 'ineffective' .... Is that so in Afghanistan, and how despite certain peoples disbelief, Iraq had no WMD's. Bosnia.. and all the other conflicts the UN has taken part in.

They are only ineffective if.. they do not agree as happens in any form of governing body (like in your senate, etc) .. or, they are blocked by a country vetoing direct action, or vetoing letters of discontent.

Did you hear recently, that team is being sent in to check on possible war crimes in the recent Gaza strip conflict. Israel feel they are being picked on.... But how can the 'free' show that they uphold their own laws and are morally 'superior' if we do not scrutinise without favour, our own actions.
