You're wrong about one of those. Either the rest of the world needs the US, or the US doesn't need the rest of the world. It depends on what you're talking about. Economically we all need each other. Militarily, the US would be fine without anybody else.

Economically, the US is 1/3 of the world's output. Significant, but the rest of the world can make do without the US.

OTOH, US cannot live without the rest of the world. One word: oil.

My point isn't that the US is perfect. My point is that the UN is so horribly corrupt we shouldn't be expected to listen to them.

Corrupt? As compared to the curent US administration? Dubya, Cheney, oil.
