Even progressively multicultured to the brink of extinction Britanistan gets it. Defund, defund, defund the United Nations.

I put up a post Wednesday, regarding my love of the UN.
Listen up Congress. Let's join the UK on this. DEFUND the criminal cartel United Nations.

Maybe there is still hope for the UK:

U.K. Pulls Plug on United Nations Spending, in Move That is Bound to Hearten U.S. Critics
In a sweeping and hard-nosed reorganization of priorities for its $10.6 billion multilateral foreign aid program, the Conservative-Liberal Democrat coalition government of Prime Minister David Cameron has pulled the financial plug entirely on four U.N. agencies at the end of next year, put three others judged merely “adequate” on notice that they could face the same fate unless they improve their performance “as a matter of absolute urgency;” and issued pointed criticisms of almost all the rest.


The major exception: UNICEF, the U.N. children’s aid agency, which got a strong endorsement and a funding increase.

Defund defund defund defund defund defund

 I experience global warming of the heart when ANY measure to defund ANY aspect of the Criminal Cartel United Nations is put forward. Common sense dictates this dinosaur should be put to rest with all the disrespect it so richly deserves.
 Here is the most recent example of the international goodwill type of work the UN is capable of (remember now, this was YESTERDAY!) :
  UN Council to Praise Libya’s Human Rights Record
 Really? What's next? Obama awarding Iran's Armanidinnerjacket the Medal of Freedom in a gala ceremony at the Kennedy Center?
Muammar Gadaffi was unavailable for comment as he is very busy directing mercenaries to murder Libyan citizens. Hopefully he will be able to attend the UN ceremony honoring his efforts to preserve his peoples human rights.

UPDATE:

"Gaddafi warns “thousands of Libyans will die” if NATO or UN intervenes" [..]
What is this? A leaked copy of Gaddafi's UN Human Rights award acceptance speech?

The only thing getting greened by the United Nations is the U.S. taxpayer:
House Will Pursue Efforts to Eliminate US Funding for UN Climate Group
Wrapped into the many amendments recently passed by the House of Representatives -- a total of $60 billion in spending cuts that the president called a "nonstarter" -- was one by Republican Missouri Rep. Blaine Luetkemeyer that would prohibit $13 million in taxpayer dollars from going to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the group whose occasional missteps have been the source of countless confrontations among climate scientists over the past year.


And sources tell FoxNews.com he plans to push that issue -- a movement labeled "defund the IPCC" by climate-change skeptics -- regardless of what happens to the larger package of amendments.

"The United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change is an entity that is fraught with waste and fraud, and engaged in dubious science, which is the last thing hard-working American taxpayers should be paying for," Luetkemeyer said in a public statement when he announced the bill. [..]

Ambassador Susan Rice skips UN meeting on Libya violence

It's not like anything important is going on in Libya or anything. Besides, she had a far more important appointment. Rice was attennding a UN panel discussion in South Africa on global sustainability. Priorities my friends. The planet has a fever. Far more important than real life stuff like civil wars and genocide.

At great personal risk to himself and his family, Libya's deputy ambassador to the United Nations, Ibrahim Dabbashi, pushed the UN Security Council to take up the violence in his home country. Dabbashi said he could no longer support the regime of his boss Moammar Gadhafi and stepped out to condemn what he called "a genocide". The dramatic event prompted the first UN meeting of the 15 member Security Council on the uprisings sweeping across the region since the beginning of Tunisia's revolution, Egypt's violence and the developing protests in Bahrain, Yemen, Palestine and Iran.


The United States was represented by Foreign Service officer and Ambassador Rosemary DiCarlo. The Obama administration's appointed ambassador, Susan Rice, skipped the Libya meeting and instead flew to South Africa to attend a UN panel discussion on global sustainability.
