You'd be better off if you learned something about the subject, before spending so much time writing

Sloww, your in no position to be telling this to others. In fact, I believe others should be telling it to you.

Some British (or American) newspaper owned by Murdoch I suppose...

The US has vetoed more than all the other 4 permanent members put together, and 3 times more than Britian, the second highest. What makes China or Russia less worthy of a place on the council than the US? Simply because they disagree on ideology and policy?

I was looking for information about the number of resolutions each permanent member has vetoed, and what they were vetoing (I heard that most US vetoes were in relation to protecting Israel from resolutions). You wouldn't happen to have a link would you?

Texan/Canadian?
I know you're ignorant; I just don't know in what/how many way(s).

[Drogue]

No, I saw it on a TV program. IIRC China has vetoed 8, France 12, UK 19, US 64 and Russia I can't remember, but it was somewhere between the UK and China.

Nice of you to counter with logic and reason. Are you saying that Bush does not believe attacking Iraq is morally right? Or that Bush's morals have no influence on his decisions? Or are you saying that there are other reasons? If so, what? US safety? Oil?

Bush, in forcing other countries to comply with him (talk about sanctions on Germany for 'defying' the US position on Iraq) is forcing his (or maybe the US's) morals onto other countries. He is saying that what Saddam is doing is Evil, and must be removed. He is calling him evil, because what Saddam has done is against his morals. Therefore, in attacking Iraq, in forcing his position, his policies and his ideals upon others, he is forcing his morals onto others.

Sauce for the gander

Drogue is just trying to force his morals onto others. I don't see why Drogue's morals are better than anyone elses, it's just he has the blather to spew it here…

'cheese eating surrender monkeys' was first used by Grounds Keeper Willy on the Simpsons.
