UN Endorses Coalition Iraq Plan
Somehow I can't say I'm surprised. Those EU countries that opposed the war are now desperate to get back into the economic game in Iraq after having abused the UN oil-for-food program. Does that negate the good that will come with the passage of this resolution? No. But I, for one, will not forget their duplicity.
I still mostly consider the United Nations a waste of time, a group that caters to the whims of superpowers, powers, and vicious dictators and is an organization of cowardly bereaucrats (sp?) and autocrats. Still, it is at least some place for countries of the world to get together and at least make a show at getting along if not actually accomplishing anything. Besides it's always good to have some semi-nuetral party out there when things get dicey.
