    Am I the only one that thinks that the UN are actually very neccesary? They might not work properly all the time and sure they've made plenty of -somethings awfully big- mistakes, but... hell, the "United Nations" concept itself is a great thing. At least for someone like me who doesn't believe in countries. It's some kind of brotherhood.

    Cheers I've been around all the time but seldomly found the time to post anything.

    The actual idea why the UN was established, i.e. preventing and solving conflicts surely does have something to it, but the concept has not been put in action effectively. Had the USSR been at the Security Council session after North Korea invaded South back in '50, the intervention would have been vetoed. Now not only that it is not easy to find a common solution, even when that is managed to be done, the action taken and its consequent results are often far from what they were expected to be - like in the Bosnian war where the Srebrenica massacre needn't have necessarily happenned. There is something huge about the UN that does not work and I believe the organisation truly needs to do something in order to regain some credibility. And even though it should be respected, countries can and do choose to ignore its decisions - take the example of current resolutions against Iran. Makes me wonder, did not the US f**k the Security Council around prior to the invasion of Iraq?

    I personally do not have much belief neither in brotherhood nor in countries but that is for a different discussion

  4. Well, bearing mind generally every world was happy in itself, just when the entire galaxy was thrall to the Empire, that's when shit went down.

    In other news, Mladic, either he is insane or he's playing the card well.
  5. Sane people genreally dont kill 8,000 people just because.


  9. True.Its a left wing,ultra liberal rag.Of course,there is no mention that today is June 6th.D-DAY.NY Times kinda forgot to mention that in their paper (rag) today.I checked,for that reason.Unreal.
  10. Only one of the most important days in history.
  11. Why would they post anything about D-Day? We're way too pre-occupied with whichever politician of the day is sending photos of his genitalia to some random women across the country. Waaaaaaaaay more important.

    /sarcasm
  12. Oh well, it's not even a round figure like the 50 or 75 anniversary... I don't think it's that important, to be raving about it and so.
