Richard Cohen wants to be able to make a citizen's UN Resolution so that there can be an official condemnation of Palestinian terrorism, especially the practive of using children as suicide bombers; he also wants everybody not willing to sign such a resolution to shut the hell up. James Joyner wants more Gomer Pyle at the UN, on the principle that this would be an improvement on the delegates running things there now. Roger Simon and William Safire want to know exactly who cooked the books on the Oil for Food program, for how much and how badly. Joe Katzman wants a Congressional investigation about that bit of corruption. And Glenn Reynolds wants to throw a rock.
Me? I was going to say that I wanted a rock to wind a piece of string around, but Glenn sort of got that one already, and the only other geekreference alternative is problematical: I suspect that people might tend to get a tad alarmed if rhetoric started appearing about having the heads of UN officials cut off and stuck on a pike as a warning for the next ten generations that some favors come at too high a price, so it's a good thing that it's not being said, huh?

Not being said? NOT BEING SAID? Hell, Shout it from the Mountaintop Moe!

The real problem, Moe, is that everybody wants a rock to tie a piece of string around.

Not me, Doug; I'd prefer a prosthetic forehead.
