Subject:
US to temporarily Suspend UN Membership If Security Council Fails to Act on Iraq

Sorry to interupt the JoeMendla newswire, but there's a report in the Daily Telegraph that the Bush Administration will suspend its UN membership if the Security Council continues to dither on Iraq. The main focus of the article is actually the US/UK plan for dealing with Iran.

Here's the UN part:
But it is proving difficult enough to get the UN to support action against Iraq. Mr Bush's most fundamental belief is that actions have consequences. If the UN behaves irresponsibly, it will pay the price. A phrase is doing the rounds: the US out of the UN, and the UN out of the US.
Well-connected advisers tell me that if, as now seems likely, the UN refuses to back action against terror, Mr Bush will announce a "temporary" suspension of America's membership, to be accompanied by an offer: if the UN gets its act together and carries out long-overdue reforms, America (and its money) will return. But if there is no reform, the temporary withdrawal will, de facto, become permanent. |
