North UN is Irrelevant - I Agree!

Oliver North accurately compares The League of Nations to the United Nations in his weekly column. The below excerpts demonstrate the League’s irrelevance during the 1931 invasion of Manchuria and the United Nation’s arrogant irrelevance during current world events.
The League of Nations responded by censuring Tokyo and demanding the withdrawal of Japanese troops. The Japanese promptly withdrew from the League, declaring its deliberations to be "irrelevant."

This sad, but accurate historical lesson in arrogance and irrelevance is pertinent to what transpired at the League's successor -- the United Nations -- this week. On Tuesday, Sept. 21, the president of the United States stood before the U.N. General Assembly and challenged the world body to try -- once again -- to be relevant in a world threatened by an evil even more dangerous than fascism: fanatical terrorism.

Apparently to Annan, the ghastly, systematic beheading of innocent civilians is morally equivalent to an isolated case of prisoner abuse at Abu Ghraib. Ironically, as he was drawing this frightening parallel, a radical Islamic website was posting the horrific images of Jack Armstrong being beheaded.

Did Annan, his cronies or family reap any of this windfall? We don't know because the U.N. Secretary-General -- so willing to lecture President Bush about the "rule of law" -- is accountable to no one.

John Kerry wants to put our NATIONAL SAFETY in the hands of this organization; my vote NO to John Kerry!
