JJ, since when has the UN done anything right? They can't do anything in this situation.

I seem to remember a story about how ineffective the UN really is...

In Sierra Leone 500 (that is not a typo) Gambian peace keepers, fully armed and with armored vehicles, surrendered without a fight to 20 rebels with AK 47s and 74's. This was several years ago, but puts into perspective how lousy the UN really is.

As for India and Pakistan and the religious problems there I blame the British Empire for messing that up.

See this isn't all the USA's fault. The US is simply filling the power void left behind by all the imperialist powers. Its easy to say bombings happen because of US involvement. I'm sure some do. However, many of them have their roots in a problem made worse by French and British interference. And because no one else is willing to step up in the world, right or wrong, the US has to. US involvement is crude though, but that’s a different subject.
