Once again,

IS THIS A JOKE?


> I've never said the the U.S.A. should make the rules.

Who is currently planning to attack other countries?
Who has the largest buildup of weapons? (are there weapons that aren't
offensive?)

(even a PC is offensive to some people)

 
> Or, to defy the United Nations when they order you to
> disarm?

Who is planning to attack somebody else in defiance of the UN?

> The only way the U.S. figures into all of this, is
> that it has the backbone that the U.N. does not have.
> The backbone to back up it's own resolutions.
The backbone to defy the UN?

He CLAIMS to be doing EXACTLY that.
We don't BELIEVE him, but, ...
what burden of proof is called for?

Neither can live without fear of assasination.

Bush? or Saddam?

So,..
Is your whole post a sarcastic joke, or not?
