Supporting one side but crying about a VERY similar situation isnt going to earn anyone any points. If the only thing that can do is cry when the US stands up for something, then slam them when they don't. Its a no win situation. In fact its two faced.
Bush is proving that the UN is toothless and isnt going to act. It can demand all it wants, but the same people who criticise the US for not fixing EVERY problem, are the same people who blame them when they fix another. The world cant dictate the batting order for a problem they are to cowardly to address. Gmat... Why isn't the UN doing something about N. Korea. Suddenly you support the US doing something about it? The UN is doing nothing except get kicked out, and watch the US. This is the main part of the problem. Everyone can point fingers, but only a few can and have the resolve to take care of the problem. If the US had parked troops in S. Korea for war, I am taking a leap here... I believe you would be in the exact same position, and France would be taking potshots at Bush.
And yes. Where is the UN? Why havent the taken this issue to heart? N. Korea isn't just a US issue is it? No. Enter the rest of the UN. "now why doesnt the US do something?"
Yes.. Bills right on target. However, when you are involved with so many conflicts abroad, no one can be right all the time. But better to be wrong with the best intentions, and at home standing for nothing. I vote for making a difference.
