So there is a headline on one of my google gadgets saying that the UN hopes for an Obama win. However, you must realize that the UN is kinda useless in present form. Its mostly a debating club. When something goes bad in the world does the UN say "Hey, lets go fix this problem?" No. There answer is "Lets pass a resolution that might possibly lead to sanctions if the problem gets worse in a few years". Then they sit around and debate about what they meant when they said it.
This is why we need NATO. Its like a possy. Something goes wrong and you say to NATO "Come on boys, lets go fix this" and then they go. Sure, dipolmatic action is the best way to take care of things but it usually works better when you have a position that if this is the right thing to do we are going to do it, and if it means using force in the end then we will use force. I mean, after all, your probably not that afraid of a toothless wolf. Not a whole lot of people are getting mawed to death. And its worse if its a 50 year old toothless fat wolf who wants to pass a sanction against you.
