Irish American with a typical American sentiment... what *will* you do without those U$ dollars?.
Thats all you people seem to think about, far more important than principles of right and wrong,
money money money makes the world go round.

Yes and I heard that they are looking for a 'neutral' place to built the new one. Any ambitions to become host of Nato. You can have it.

All because some hard-line Belgian stalinists decided to sew Bush senior, Powell, etc..... (a week before the Belgian elections)

Of course it is not politcal. ;)

'If we're 'evicted' from the UN, who will pay the bills?'

huh??

it was the USA that hadn't paid its near $1 billion debt for years.

I'm not sure what the current status of this debt is now, Clinton could never get passed Sen Helms' veto - Bush may have paid some to get the UN to swallow the pill and bribe it for war, but i doubt it. I know that Sen Jesse Helmes finally gave the go ahead to pay this off - but I wonder if the moeny ever got there.

considering that the US fees to UN are unpaid for years and that the people attacked have always had to pay reparitions in settlements, the rest of the world will continue to pay!

It's not being used and I'm sure their war-ciminals would be safe from prosecution there! It's an equal opportunity employer!

And will anyone else be evicted? Like Burma? North Korea? Zimbabwe?

Maybe what we need to do is dissolve NATO and enter into a new alliance with the Russians or Chinese.

We'll see how those Belgians rethink their attitudes then.

... to protect the civilized world from the Americans. The world needs a global military alliance against the US and perhaps NATO could provide this if the US were to be evicted from NATO. The US should also be evicted from the UN, and the UN headquarters should be moved to Geneva.

The world should make it absolutely, crystal clear to the American people that that belligerent arrogance on war, the environment, social justice, etc will have serious consequences. This will be good for Americans, becasuse they would clearly prefer to learn their lessons through restictions on trade, travel, investment than by the Bin laden method, effective as that it...
