It's interesting how the majority of the US public actually support Israel even though they treat the UN with utter contempt.

And can someone please, for the life of me, explain what number four means?


[I]"What should we say about all these people being killed and thrown out of their own homes by soldiers with armoured tanks and guns?"

"Errm..don’t know…"

"We need something which makes us look like we're doing something…."

"Lets say we'll deal with the matter?"

"No.."

"Too simple…"

"We need to be more decisive…we need to errrm…Decide…yes that it! Let's decide! "

"Yes…let's"

"Yes we'll decide to deal with the matter"

"Errmm..good but we need to sound grander..show our authority"

"We have authority?" (delegate is escorted from the room)

"Yes we must make our presence felt…show the world we will not be trampled upon…make our voice heard…we need to seize this moment and take action"

"voice heard"

"show the world"

"take action"

"We'll decide to remain seized of the matter…there you go..how's that?"

"Bravo"

"Splendid"

"Okay lets go home and see how the Yankees are doing"[/I]
