They should have a standing force available, made up of soldiers and equipment from member nations, but what would help the most is the abolishment of permanent member status and vetoes combined with a set rule that any country who ignored the UN could not have a voice in the SC or any other UN group with a specific mandate.

   

in a different country, or better yet, in no country. Somewhere around the South Pole would be good.

   

I'd actually like to see them base here. We have the room for them and the money and cultural exchange would be good for us.

   

and scandal if they came to Canada? They'd likely end up in Quebec just as that province split off and joined France.

   

I was thinking more in terms of Manitoba. Come to think of it we could put the whole UN right here in Winnipeg too.

   

Not Winnipeg. My computer locked up at the idea. My Jeep out in the parking lot backfired, even though it isn't running. I had an uncle who lived there once, He said it was so flat there he almost died. He is a fisherman. He said he went out in a lake there; rowed for hours. Got out of the boat and the water was only 2 feet deep. No matter what they have done; don't send them to Winnipeg. It is a fate worse than death.

   

Winnipeg is a wonderful place. Two rivers (actually three if you count the Seine); a lake with world-class beaches (Playboy said so) only an hour or so away; some very cool architecture, old and new; close to the bush and rock of the Canadian Shield and the flatlands of the prairies, not to mention the Parkland region; a train ride to Churchill...a growing port, home to many polar bears, and a fine place to study global warming. I can go on forever extolling the virtues of this place.

   

I did vote for global warming. Is it shirt sleeve weather there all year yet?

   

I can't understand from where you are drawing these conclusions, how I can suggest something they are doing, and forcing us to retaliate with more force to stop them, which turning the entire issue into a killing mill?

From where did you get that I am saying if we are to do genocide then it's ok.

I told you my friend from the beginning that you are misreading me because I am not going along with the denial state that states, Arabs actions are legitimate, and we are the bad element here.

What I am saying is, the world must stand against all the Arabic method used today in the name of solving the Middle East problem because it is not only barbaric, but also it is spreading barbarism all over the globe, and it is time for the world to change its past approach of dealing with such problem because the past history told us that this approach did not work because the Nazism we fought is repeating itself today.

And what I am saying is, the world must take unconventional approach to solve this problem, and the world must face the Arabs with their facts, not make excuses for it, to keep it fuelled.

I hope that is clear enough now.

   

Cold weather builds character, fig. It also keeps the Torontonians away.

   

It is hunting season and they are performing up to my expectations. Silly buggers. They run the fat off the animals for us.

   

Something I agree with. Have you any ideas as to what kind of approach could be used? We know that humans beings do not respond to absolute force. We know that there is always some unscrupulous individuals who will seek to corrupt and abuse positive re-inforcement.

I'm thinking we should just dope everybody up with ectasy permanently. Nobody gets mad when their high on ectasy.

   

The world is already short on fresh water, and we have way too many plastic bottle already, Twila. That'd make ecstacy (MDMA, for you guys as old as me...it really isn't a new drug) a bad idea.

We get the Americans hunting here, Fig. Not so many this year though...the farmers are telling them to piss off until the US lets our beef into their country.

   

I hear it makes you pee a lot and my heart medication does that enough thanks. How about keeping us on Zyban? It was nice quitting smoking. I might start again just so I can quit once more.

American hunters eh? It must be kinda different for them, not being the hunted like they are in most of the world.

The world isn't short of fresh water. Some dingbats just chose to live where there is none so they have something to whine about.

   

The peeing is what dehydrates you, causing you to have to drink plenty of water, I believe.

Was there no MDMA around when you were growing up, Fig? We usually just referred to it as "cheap chemicals" when I was a kid...kind of rolled in with Quaaludes and the random other pharmaceuticals (often for animals) that would show up at parties. I always avoided them, seeing how goofy others acted, but they were certainly out there.

The world is short of fresh water. That's why the Americans are eyeballing ours...they need it to water their golf courses in the desert.
