What the heck do we need with these tea drinking pacifists fools? Can we relocate them in Mr. Annan's home? Thats where assistance is needed. Make the HQ in Danfur, not in the home of Freedom!!! Let Kofe talk his liberal ******** in a third world country!!!Thats where the World Bank and the UN are ""helping"". Right?!
Please take em. along with the parking tickets!!!!!!!!!!! Put the HQ un downtown Samalia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please!!!!!!!!
I read once a novel called 'Didietown World' (or something like that) about a time in the future in which the UN building was turned into a gigantic brothel in which they cloned famous actresses from the past and turn them into sex slaves. (One of the main protagonists was a clone of Jean Harlow who managed to escape and teamed up with a detective to create havoc.) So, I suppose if we really want a place where we can sleep with famous actresses, then booting the UN would be the first step.
As someone that actually lives in Manhattan, I sure as hell want then UN to stay. Fvck the parking tickets - almost no one who lives here drives anyway. I want to keep New York the capital of the world, and having the UN here helps that. New York is the epicenter of capitalism already, and this makes it the most relevant international city as well. (Who the fvck wants to go to Brussels, anyway?) For the cost of a building that urgently needs redesigning, I'll take it.
Lets see how many posts before the right wing whackos around here figure out the UN HQ is NOT on US territory. But that's ok, such luminaries as Pat Buchanan have made the same mistake in the past.
Because the land is technically international, we couldn't possibly kick them out. Another mind-numbing Bigsoccer argument.
Vienna, the future world capital... i'd be okay with that... ;-) (against geneva though, the Völkerbund (no idea what that is in English) was a failure)
