I have heard that America owes the UN millions in back payments .
Is this true .
I also think that America has become a bullying nation , most powerful and always ready to interfere in other nations business.
I remember the invasion of Grenada , a British protectorate with not so much as a by your leave .
Heralded as a great victory despite the fact that it was "" defended "" by sweepers and janitors "" and that most of the casualties were that beloved american saying ...friendly fire and that most of the UK casualties in Desert Storm were that same ol thing ""friendly fire"" .....meaning fire from american cowboys

The UN is very corrupt. Just look at the UN's oil for food program. Even the leader of the UN's brother got involved with that scandle. Something like 80% of the countries that head up the UN's human right's council are made up with countries with poor human rights records.

The UN soldiers have a poor record too. They can't even beat back Hati's gangs and have raped the local population whereever they go.

The U.S. has the peace corps, which does much of what the UN is suppose to do. The U.S. also launched many peacekeeping missions on its own.

Grenada had several Cuban soldiers on it that were making a military airbase. The surrounding countries didn't like it and asked the U.S. to invade.

One friendly fire incident in Iraq happened when an unauthorized high ranking officer decided to hijack an American Apache helicopter and fly around on his own. I'm sure he was dealt with. A friendly fire in Afganistan happened when the ground guy sent his laser guider to 0,0 which means the bomb would home in on the laser guider. That wasn't the fault of the pilot.

If 1/100th of the nations that owed the US trillions in loans, repaid a tiny fraction of what they owe the US, we could buy every American a sledge hammer & knock that whorehouse down once & for all. The UN is nothing but a den of corruption on an international scale, that constantly asks the US to bail them out financially, militarily etc..

Is the rant that you went on really relevant to the title about America's UN obligations? And I am guessing that your trying to belittle past American military engagements stems from your own countries impotency in the last half century.(I am speculating that you are British, but if not I am still correct since no other country has even had a semblance of a military victory since WWII. )
