The U.N. wants U.S. troops out of Iraq. And the Iraqis are actually saying loud and clear that the U.N. does not speak for them:
UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) ...[Iraqi] Foreign Minister Hoshiyar Zebari disagreed with France, Germany, China and others who want a fixed deadline for the force’s withdrawal, subject to renewal. He also opposed a veto over U.S.-led military operations.
“I stress that any premature departure of international troops would lead to chaos and the real possibility of a civil war in Iraq,” he said.
If the U.N. doesn’t care enough about the best interests of Iraqis to even consult with them—then whose interests are they representing?
One thing is evident—it’s not our interests. And it’s not Iraq’s interests.
Kerry wants to turn Iraq’s fate over to the U.N.—an organization which opposes what the Iraqis themselves want.
