U.N.breakable

The task of marginalizing the U.N. has begun. I don't want to dwell on this too much since it's nothing new, but this quote by Rep. Lantos (D-CA) was mildly amusing:

"The U.N. "looks very much like an organization created for a different time."

He's absolutely right. It was created for a time when nations attacked other nations for self-proclaimed righteous higher callings and/or non-existent threats. It was also created for a time when those we feared sometimes sat with us. Cf. this.
