Iraq and the UN

Here's a phrase I'm tired of. Don't Go Wobbly. Apparently it's something Margaret Thatcher said to Ronald Reagan, and it's also the title of the latest article from Frank J. Gaffney, Jr.

In it he talks about increasing pressure on President Bush to do the sane thing and begin shifting more of the responsibility for rebuilding Iraq to the United Nations. But to bolster his argument he has little more than a mocking attitude towards United Nations Blue Helmets. He also believes that the recent attack on the U.N. indicates that they feel more or less the same towards the U.N. that they do the United States. That's probably true, if you are referring to the specific people who planned that terrible attack. But is it true for the country as a whole? I'm not sure that follows. Certainly many Iraqis resent the United States for our invasion.
