United States should denounce the United Nations

I'm sorry to hear about your friend, Con. May God rest his soul. === "Pro fails to point out that MOST of these perpetrators are form 3rd world countries in which rape is accepted in the culture. For example: Congo -the rape capital of the world- over 90% of women there aged 13 and over had their first sexual experience forced upon them[4]. Although I agree with pro that this is MORALLY wrong, the issue remains the cultures of the respected countries, not that as the UN as a whole."Yes it should, because like I stated in my last argument: "Peacekeeping forces working on behalf of the UN to keep these places stabilised are accused of abusing the people they are supposed to be protecting." I never said anything about their cultures being the problem. It's their culture and what they do on a daily basis, then I have to tolerate that. But you have soldiers from foreign countries being sent over by the United Nations, from nations like Italy, USA, Russia, Britain, etc. - to traumatised nations - and instead of doing their job and helping the people get by, they take advantage of them. Here are some examples of atrocities committed here that the UN rarely lets the public know about: http://www.texemarrs.com...http://whatreallyhappened.com..."I call to point those people reading pro's arguments to look at Libya, in which Qaddafi was killed by his own citizens due to his human rights abuses, his assets frozen, and even his children even being killed and/or captured."If you look back at the source, you'll see it was taken on Monday Janurary of 2003. And I have to ask people who are reading this argument: Why would an organization that preaches human rights, freedom, and global tolerance give a seat - give the position of chair, even - to a man that supported international terrorism and tortured and killed a countless number of people, in the first place? I believe that's notion is questionable enough. (...which also claims that atheism is responsible for death and suffering) Now, I would like to ask Con, which of my sources actually says anything about athiesm being the cause of anything? === Continuing on with my side of the argument, I would like to inform people reading this about the oil-for-food scandal that went on during the Embargo in Iraq...http://www.slate.com...http://www.washingtontimes.com...http://www.cfr.org...All those years people thought the people of Iraq were benefiting from the oil-for-food programme, but it's obvious here that they weren't. Instead the only ones who benefitted were then-UN General Secretary Kofi Annan then-dictator Saddam Hussein. Saddam practically abused the programme and collected millions which he proceeded to exported to foreign terrorist groups like Hamas and Hezbolla. Furthermore the food that was supposed to be going to the Iraqi people instead ended up on Saddam's table. And this entire incident was kept a secret for several years until the Invasion. Another thing that bothers me about the UN is how much the United States contributes. Currently the United States pays 22% of the Budget - an estimated 4.19 Billion Dollars, more than any other member-state. We basically make up half of the UN Budget. And despite the economy, which is crumbling as we speak, for some reason, we're the only ones in the world willing to pay this much. http://www.globalpolicy.org...This is one of the reasons why we should denounce them. If we leave the UN, imagine how much money we could be able to save for programs like Social Security nd Medicare. If they want a nation to pay the amount the US does, why not let China pay? Or India? Their economies seem to be doing well. ===Now I await Con's response.
