Of course the ‘out’ for the UN – and the DPRK – is that, according to Ms. Rosett’s quotation, a member “may be expelled from the Organization by the General Assembly”. I assume this means a vote of the whole. This maneuver would serve a double-bonus for the US however. Who doubts the assemblage will refuse to remove the NoKors? This, especially following Mr. Chavez’s recent appearance, would serve to alert an increasing number of Americans exactly what form the world body has assumed. [BTW: Wouldn't any such move absolutley have to happen before the new South Korean General Secretary assumes the office? Under his leadership it would appear too self-interested. Or am I wrong?]
