Move The UN

Ideal time for action

Just today, the US Congress Moves to Cut U.N. Funding.

The information reported by Jim Lobe of the Inter Press Service makes it the ideal opportunity to MOVE THE UN to more economic and friendly surroundings.

"WASHINGTON - In a move virtually certain to add to strains between the U.S. Congress and the United Nations, the International Relations Committee (HIRC) of the House of Representatives Wednesday approved a sweeping bill that, if passed into law, will require Washington to withhold up to half of assessed U.S. contributions to the world body unless it implements specific reforms."

If the UN is moved from the US, the balance of power in decisions will certainly become more democratic as the US can stop claiming, quite falsely, that it is supporting the UN!!

The biggest loser, sadly, will be the good city of New York, but there are lots of great places around the world where the UN will be very very welcome.

Please support the Move The UN Movement.
