Iraq's Troubles Are Finally Over!

Why? Because the United Nations will be undertaking a much larger role there. Read on:

UNITED NATIONS - The Security Council voted Friday to expand the United Nations' role in Iraq in a move aimed at promoting talks among ethnic and religious rivals and winning support from the country's neighbors.

The resolution, approved unanimously, authorizes the U.N., at the request of the Iraqi government, to promote political talks among Iraqis and a regional dialogue on issues including border security, energy and refugees.

Okay boys, pack it up. We're not needed anymore. The U.N. has everything under control. I mean, they did such a bang-up job in Bosnia, Somalia, and IRAQ, right?

Anyone with three brain cells knows this already, but I'll write it anyway: the U.N.'s next successful mission will be its first.

Watch out, they passed a resolution. Al Queda in Mesopotamia must be quaking in their boots.

After they spread magic fairy dust over Iraq, maybe they can have a sensical talk with North Korea. Pigs have wings and hell needs a snow plow, right?

The UN has less than zero credibility. I don't understand why we belong to that morally bankrupt and inept organization. They should be disbanded.

I got a million dollars that says rapes, child molestation, and larceny go through the roof once the UN has people on the ground. Who's in?

Two Dogs - you made me laugh very hard today - thanks!
I want part of that bet! but you have to add coercion and blackmail of or by officials.

The Man - Yeah, I'll bet they're pulling up their tents and hustling back into Iran. /snark

RT - Maybe then they can cure Somalia's ills, too.

Reverse_Vampyr - Disbanded, decimated, destroyed, whatever works.

Two Dogs - No takers!

Judy - Agreed. We'll add those charges, too.
