What is that old saying? When the going gets tough, mmmmm the U.N. tucks its tail and runs.
No wait thats not it.................
No big deal. To the Afghanistans anyway. Heck, American taxpayers will pay for another Embassy simular to the one in Iraq. Which is probably where they will be housed untill another ONE BILLION dollar embassy can be built in Afgahnistan. Fully equipped with bomb proof walls, Construction of the U.S. embassy in Iraq, open now, is projected to cost $592 million,( estimates were $142 million), with a staff of 1,000 people and operating costs totaling $1.2 billion a year.Thats 1.2 BILLION Yearly to run. It will be a 104-acre complex, which is the size of approximately 80 football fields. The complex will include two office buildings, one of them designed for future use as a "school", six apartment buildings,Thats SIX suites, averaging 5-6 THOUSAND Sq. feet each), a gym, a pool, a food court and:
" its own power generation and water-treatment plants".
CONTINUED:
While a few Americans will be living in posh quarters,the majority will be "well compensated" Iraqi politicians.
Yet the citizens of Baghdad are forced to survive with just 5.6 hours of electricity a day. Baghdad was also recently rated the world’s worst city in which to live.
The residence of the U.S. ambassador to Iraq will be 16,000 square feet. The deputy chief of mission in Iraq will have a “cozy cottage” measuring 9,500 square feet.
Bernie Maddof did not live so good.
The complex will be bigger than vatican City.
the Iraqi people call this "George W's Palace".
CONTINUED:
In the Baghdad cafes, they "moan that the structure is bigger than anything Saddam Hussein ever built" and are "interested in knowing whether the US State Department paid for the prime real estate or simply took it. For the record the land was given to them by the Iraqi government.

FEMA has closed its office in New Orleans while much of the city is still in ruins and in need of massve re-construction. 6 years after the massive destruction. At a time when our country is running huge deficits and cutting programs for the poor.
And Banksters, have repossed/stolen some 8 million homes from Americans.
Ya, gotta love the Government of the United States of Corporations.
Wise decision UN... and never ever come back to Afghanistan or any other country riding on the coattails of a criminally insane occupation like that of the americunts in Eye-raq and Afghanistan!
Didn't anyone tell you morons you are just as criminal by associating with criminals in a crime scene?
Just goes to show the resistance leadership is in on the situation in their own country which they are liberate..
Is it really? I never heard of that. Are you looking for wealthy men? I know a hot and interesting place named Billionairepal.com where I have met my boyfriend. You may take a look.
If NOTHING else, our US government is CONSISTANT;
Wasting taxpayers' money
Putting themselves in places they are NOT wanted
Fighting a conflict with an UNknown endpoint
Wasting US troops lives in conflict that will revert to original state
Trying to "overcome" tribal, ethnic & religeous AGE OLD differences
Insuring that the US Corps get rich from services to the conflict
Even insuring that rich Afghanis get rich too
Except for the Heroin trade, Afghan is a worthless pile of rocks
ad nauseum!
SOS... just different year.
Let's CHANGE ALL US INCUMBANTS NEXT ELECTION!
What about that usless branch in New York? Get rid of those lazy azzholes and you can save millions in lost wages as well as freeing up a bunch of parking spaces. Maybe they could use the land for a dump? Thats a lot better for the environment. Attitudes would change around the hood. They could burn all those wasted parking tickets and heat 1 home for a week. There are so many good things that could happen, IF YOU GET US OUT OF THE UN!
Isn't it odd, the supposely powerful UN has to relocate their staff? I thought that's is why they are there, not just to hand out money, but to spread good will and make them believe they are on the wrong track. How about if we would relocate our troops every time they attack us. Wouldn't be a bad thing. Why don't we all go home. The UN is just hurting the cause. They give these idiots money and when they blow them up, not appreciating a darn thing, they relocate. This UN is supposed to be the world. All they are is wuzzes.
How about hurting the Taliban back from the world organisation saying we are standing together against you killers. No will never happen. Those UN just want the money from the countries and are lazy azzes.and wuzzes afraid of their own shaddow. We don't need a UN. Ever since we have one, we have more trouble in the world.
Dawgawnit, I thought at first they were going to move the UN headquarters to some other country! So much for my high hopes!
They need to stay there and stick it out with the rest ........Un is worthless anyway...what a bunch of (%*8
Get the US out of the UN !
Iran is not a stupid as the American government controlled media would like you to believe.
Problems are good to deal with....If you don't like the deal spend your money another place.
The UN wants to decide who is going to make the deals and the prices . .
WE SHOULD CELEBRATE VERTERANS DAY BY NOT SUPPORTING THE POPPY KING AND BRINGING ALL OUR UNIFORMS HOME. WE PUT OUR MOST PRIZE PEOPLE IN HARMS WAY IN SUPPORT OF BIG OIL AND POLITICAL BULL s*** OUR MEN AND WOMEN SERVE TO DEFEND AMERICA. IF ATTACKED THAN RESPOND WITH OVER WHELMING FORCE AND FRY THE BASTARDS...O'BAMA NOW GO AND DO THE RIGHT THING !!!!!
So it's not safe for the "world's" government huh? Then it's not safe for our soldiers either. The sooner that place sinks into the ooze, the better. They are unworthy of any more blood or money coming from us. If they don't like the Taliban, then THEY can fight the Taliban.
Give a s*** too bad they did not get rid of all of you a******.
As an immigrant to the USA from Europe I feel I have the right to feel this way. You are all corrupt on our money.
Yeah, that will really do it, give Karzai a stern warning, I'm sure he'll shape right up! What a joke!!! What does he care how many people are killed?
They don't give a crap about the UN, their workers, or any other foreigner who is killed. They don't even care about how many of their own people are killed, for that matter.
Karzai is as afraid of the Taliban as any Afghan. They need to take care of their own mess!!!
Perhaps after a few thousand more dead Americans we will realize that we are dragging a dead horse?
Edward- you need to get your rounchy arsch back where you came from- you mental GIMP. An attitude like yours will get you your arsch kicked! You're a fricken freak!
The plan should be.
First IMPEACH osama obama HUSEIN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Deport his A$$ back to Kenya his birth place !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Close all military bases except for in U.S. Bring all troops home. Secure all our boarders. Manufacture everything we now buy from the rest of the world. Drill for our oil, buy none from anyone and faze out fuel usage as alternative energy sources are perfected.
Finally any and all food exported, raise the price 100% and tell the world to get F----d
The Russians got their ass kicked by the Afghanis and we will too, we must get out now and save our beloved troops . The war in afghanistan and Iraq are no win situations get out now. I did three tours in Viet Nam saw many young men killed and in the end we turned tail and had to run. Get out now and leave it to the UN, let teh French, Germans, and the afrian nations deal with it.
Go ahead Obama, send your 10s of thousand of troops into afghanistan
or Pakistan, it wont make any difference as far as acheiving your goals, The Taliban will prvail, it's there country, and they will fight for it to the bitter end,Which i might add, it will be.
you will just have to keep on using those body bags.
THE UN IS AN INEFFECTIVE AND USELESS ORGANIZATION.
WHETHER OR NOT THEY EXIST... MUSLIMS CONTINUE TO KILL PEOPLE AROUND THE WORLD.
THE UN DOES NOTHING TO STOP MUSLIM FASCISM.
INSTEAD IT RIPS OFF AMERICAN TAXPAYER $$$ AND SQUANDERS THEM ON DICTATORS WHO STEAL THOSE $$$ AND SUPPLIES WHICH ARE INTENDED FOR, BUT NEVER REACH IMPOVERISHED PEOPLE.
THE UN SHOULD BE ABOLISHED & IT'S MEMBERS TRIED FOR TREASON TO ALL NATIONS.
U.N. ???
UN-necessary, UN-wanted, UN-acceptable, UN-able, UN-accomplished, UN-accommodated. UN-accented and most of all UN-American
This is Allah, "Blessed be my name."
I am commanding all of the faithful to commit suicide and join me in paradise. I command that all the faitful leave the world to the infidels....kill their entire families and then kill themselves immediatly.
Any who claim to be faithful, but fail to kill their families and themselves will not have a place in paradise.
I have spoken!!! Thanks for listening.
f*** the U.N. little pricks in blue helmets never did anyone any good anyways. they just stand around and watch civilian populations that they're assigned to protect get slaughtered; and DEFINITELY DON'T expect the U.N. to back you up. dear U.N.: GO f*** YOURSELVES!!!
