The UN also decided not to call the genocide in Rwanda a genocide (was it Rwanda? I forgot which country. but it was one of them). So I have no respect at all for the UN. It's all a popularity contest there anyway. They have no real power.

No western country has laws that disenfrachise people deliberatly. However much like Amercia, the vicious cycle is allowed to continue. And apparantly the situation is a hell of alot worse than over here.
yes, well no matter what you think of the un, there are still international laws that must be obeyd, they were broken, and not sideing with the ones that broke those laws ( and yet insist that others follow them, hypocracy anyone?) in my mind is not cowardness, to me, it shows character and balls to defy america....

and the situation in france is much worse than in america? check this out:
" Rank of the U.S. among the 17 leading industrial nations with the largest percentage of their populations in poverty: 1" - source - www.harpers.org

I am not any sort of authority on international law, so i'll step aside on that.


and I can't argue with statistics, but i'll leave you this thought:

when is last time America had a large scale riot?
