Well, it certainly seems SOME people can't forget. Maybe it would be better if you tried, though.

The UN is nothing but a corrupt anti-Israel lobby. It's counter-productive in even the things that most people regard it as being semi-good at, like disaster relief, or negotiating an end to violence between intractable factions. But one look at their record for the past two years will show how ineffective and actually retrograde every single one of their actions have been.

It's actually dangerous. It should be ended ASAP.
