US to veto expected UN resolution condemning Israel
By TOVAH LAZAROFF AND AP
The United States has reassured Israel that it will veto a United Nations resolution calling for imposing sanctions on Israel for its construction of the West Bank security fence, which the International Court of Justice deemed as illegal in its Friday ruling.
Diplomatic sources in the Prime Minister's Office told Israel Radio Saturday that if the Palestinians decide to pass the ICJ's ruling for a discussion at the United Nations' General Assembly and press for the issuing of a resolution condemning Israel, the United States will veto such resolution.

Yet another reason why some claim the UN is "useless" - simply because they are not in agreement. It's like the little boys in the school yard with their own "agendas" and if, necessary lying like hell to the prove the point - eg "evidence of WMD in Iraq".The United States has reassured Israel that it will veto a United Nations resolution calling for imposing sanctions on Israel for its construction of the West Bank security fence, which the International Court of Justice deemed as illegal in its Friday ruling.
There is also "disagreement" over the ICJ - the rogue regimes in this world clearly don't need any International Court of Justice (or International Criminal Court), telling em how it is.
The UN represents the International Community - whether some like it or not. Each member state is has a say - if they don't like it, quit using "excuses" and piss off out of the "International Community".

Probably, even though I don't like the UN, and believe the structure lends it to be almost irrelevant b/c of the security council veto power...it is still an important tool for keeping the world enganged.
The U.S. can be too heavy handed at times, and the U.N. allows some form of moderation. I think the war in Iraq has shown how important a bit of moderation can be, if only to force countries to be accountable to display their rational.
Unfortunately, the U.N. only has any sort of say with regards to the U.S., b/c they are really the only nation who considers any sort of moral authority to rectify global problems. Therefore, the U.S. will actually LISTEN and try to present a case to the U.N. and not just try to steam role their puppet authority.
So, in absence of the cold war superpower (that the U.S. would think about before engaging in any war outside S. america), the U.N. serves as a role almost like a priest...
they can only condemn you or bless you, but can't help you or hurt you. Oh yeah, you can buy their blessing as well.
Never the less, it is always good to be reminded that other people are watching wha tyou do.

that's also why the EU as a political union won't do shit.
