That's a load of crap Hugh. Should I blame Ghana for Kofi's actions? Obviously, that would be absurd, but apparently that's what you think I should do.

Actually remember that Palpatine got his start as a Senator from the Trade Federation and was an obvious corporatist. Naboo was quite poor too from what we saw. So it was basically a wealthy super-conglomerate oppressing a poor planet at the beginning.

Palpatine was from Naboo.

And Naboo looked quite prosperous from the movie I saw. Maybe BRTD saw the raw, uncut version.

The world acts like any time the US refuses to act like the UN is above us, the US is wrong. That's why the US should at least remove our funding from the organization, if not our membership in the general assembly. Another reason to withdraw was given this past week when one member (Iran) called for another member (Israel) to be wiped off the face of the planet. They retain their seat in the general assembly though.
