Theo Spark, whom I admire deeply, is calling for the United States to join the British Commonwealth.

While I think some alternative to the United Nations needs to be found, from what I've seen of Commonwealth policy, it is no less mired in the doctrines of politically-correct trans-nationalism than the United Nations is. Furthermore, its structure is one of more egalitarian nature, wherein the members of small ex-Colonies have the same voice and say as larger, more established nations, such as Canada, Australia, and even the Mother of Nations herself.

No, I don't think it's really the best idea to join ourselves to yet another transnational organisation. But I do think it might be time that we start thinking about how we would do things on our own again.

Time for the Commonwealth to stand up and be counted…

… and for the US to join it.

The Commonwealth is a cosy little club, made up of what was the British empire,which meets every four years for the Global equivalent of the Village sports Day. It comprises 53 Nations containing a population of nearly 2 billion. Apart from the UK, other leading members are Australia, Canada, India and South Africa. It devotes much of it’s time to good works involving Democracy, Economics, Education and other worthy causes. What it doesn’t do is peacekeeping. It is about time that it started.

In Brian's Grand Scheme of Things (patent pending), being used as a propaganda tool doesn't rank as a very intelligent thing to do. Oh and also, the EU is about 20 rungs down from the United Useless Nations.

... it turns out that the UN is good at enabling terrorists, too. I'm sure the Lebanese government appreciates their efforts.

Why do we continue to pour billions of dollars into that Turtle Bay quagmire again?

It seems that Gateway Pundit has found something that the United Useless Nations is good at:

Kofi Annan may have stepped down months ago as head of the UN but his administration's scandals are still making headlines.

UN peacekeeping forces traded guns with African militias for gold in 2005 and then tried to bury the report after it was found out.

Yep, that's our billion-dollar Kleptocracy, hard at work for you and me themselves.

Pity the poor fools at the UN, who've been told by the Lebanese Army that they may not enter the Palestinian camp hiding Fatah al-Islam (and thusly re-arm the terrorists who are currently surrounded within its confines):



News flash for the UN: Stop supporting people who support terror. An increase in world peace will follow. Continue reading »

They're not called the "Useless Nations" for nothing, folks.
