There is a thing called duty to protect with a UN clause to invoke if a country genocides giving a international law rights to intervieen militarily in another country..

Problem might be Is da swell hell never declared any borders hence ain't a nation under intl law either..

... some 12 years ago an awakening friend told me about “model UN” in the local high school. So I attended the “mock UN ASSEMBLY” done by the students. As I am standing there and observing (pun intended) the “UN” it reminded me a “gremium” a multinational assembly of communist countries (from communist era of my past - and no I was not a communist).

Listening to the “presiding member” bashing US on all levels (deserved or not) I utter the following: “If it was up to me I’d kick UN out of the US soil!”

My friend next to me hitting my elbow from the right side when a woman standing on my left says: “Why are you saying such a thing?”

While ignoring another nudge from the right I answer:

“Because what I see is no different from so many communist brainwashing meetings I had to attend in my school in a communist Czechoslovakia.”

Her face got red.

My friend pulled me over and told me that THAT was a head of the team who was overseeing “Model UN”

True life stories hit the nerve harder on high value intelligence of real interest!

Juri Lina, the famous writer disecting tge Jewish Soviet hell, escaped in the mid 80's from Soviet ("Estonia") to Sweden and as a high level intellectual some few years later he was proficient enough to master as much Swedish to be able to follow and digest the Swedish radio/TV news casts.. Upon realizing the horror of finding out the actual facts of what he himself now could hear and digest announced to his new Swedish aquaintances (chocking them with his review) : - "As I now can hear and understand Swedish news it is chocking to note that you all can't see and recognize that your own western media is as equally or even worse contrived and enslaved in mind-schackels as is the ludicrus Soviet bs propaganda!!!"

Thanks for your interesting story!

... true, although we have not have as much has rd core communism as former Soviet Union, after arriving to the US in 1993, I could point to what was news and what was propaganda. I was also exposed to the first hand stories from my grandparents who lived pre-communist era. So I can say with confidence that the US capitalist/free system can’t be compared to the free market system my grandparents experienced.

I can’t speak for pre 1993 freedom era in the USA

It was a high ranking retired government official who said on 60-Minutes that the US has NEVER had a free-market economy then cited Article 1, Section 8, paragraph 3,

Congress shall have power to...."REGULATE COMMERCE..."

There has NEVER been a free market in Yahoodyville.

I've often said that Stalin, Hitler, and Mao would weep and ejaculate for joy at the level that technocratic MK had risen to.
