I had so hoped that once we threw the UN out of New York, we could persuade them to relocate to France, since France is so concerned about seeing itself as being powerful enough to be an American counterweight. However, since the French are also nominally part of the West, as well as being on the Security Council, obviously the AlQueda members interviewed in Algeria would equally disapprove of a Parisian-based UN.

But I still think it would have been instructive to watch the French trying to deal with all the world’s dishonest diplomats who like to part where-ever they feel like it, and think that since rape is a national sport in their own country it should be equally sanctioned where-ever they are posted diplomatically.

Actually, though, as I think about it, the UN *deserves* to be located in Algeria, although they’d get more parental supervision and discipline if they were located either in Moscow or Beijing.
