Countries having veto power has always weakened the UN, the Americans wonder why its so feeble yet they are one of the countries that ensure it remains so.

You could see it coming especially after the US signed that missile defence shield deal with the Czech Republic and Poland.

It’s just sad that they are using a crisis in another country to make a point to the US and its allies.

Thing is the Russian PM in private agreed to it but then it came to the vote and then he vetoed so China had words with him and he gave no reason for it. China gave a lame excuse as well.

Just terrible, all moaning about Iraq but comes to a true evil and they do not want to do anything.

I notice how South Africa voted against. Mbeki is one of the few people Mugabe trusts, so a vote from South Africa wouldve hit hard and done some serious good. After all, Mbekis already got half of Mugabes populace in his country.
