International Organizations

so other than the dues that each nation should be paying and donations, are there any other ways missions (particularly peacekeeping ones) are funded? or how does the un ensure the money is used effectively?

thanks..^^

Late last year, Kuwait unpegged her own currency from the dollar. Now both her currency and economy are doing well again. And you can bet that all the other pegged Mid-East countries have been watching this and may well follow suit. How will this effect the dollar ?

Iran has started an oil-trading bourse on Kish Island. Nothing unusual in this you say - well, except that they have been trading oil for Euros and not Dollars for the last year. Could this be the reason why the Dollar has been doing so badly and the Euro doing so well recently ?

Jihadi violence revisited

A heavyweight ideologue of al-Jihad group has drafted a new document where he revisited the group's initial ideology and renounced violence. In his treatise, Sayed Imam, who co-founded the first cell of al-Jihad group with Ayman al-Zawahri in Egypt in the late 1970's, revisited the juristic foundations that justified the group's violence against Muslims and non-Muslims.

The document titled "Document for the Rationalization of al-Jihad in Egypt and the World" is expected to be published in sequels in the local and regional press starting next week.

These revisions mark a drastic paradigm shift for Imam, the author of two previous books that influenced the thinking of most Arab jihadists and al-Qaeda members. Imam drafted this document behind bars where is serving a 25-year sentence.

If I'm to understand, the EU does have it's own currency, although not every nation has been willing 2 adopt the euro, e.g. U.K., Denmark. & I would look @ the Wikipedia article, but I don't have all day. So I just need some good comparisons between the EU & the United States.
