That's their ploy. Wild accusations. Demands for questions answered. Demands for unilateral surrender before judgement. If that's now the function of the U.N. - a U.S. orchestra of aggression against their contrived adversaries - then the time has come for countries to reassess those alliances which tolerate and elevate these campaigns of American dominance and repression.

There are some opportunities coming up for Iran to gain partnerships outside of the U.N., like the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, which is meeting June 15th. Alliances like these could underscore the needs and concerns of those in the region whose priorities are more than likely to be far out of line with the Bush regime's violent, arbitrary imperialism.

There is also, still, an opportunity for the participating members of the U.N. to assert their independence from the self-serving campaigns of intimidation and threats. There's still a chance for them to assert themselves as adults, immune to the fibs and demands of spoiled, destructive children.

There's still a chance for the members of United Nations to hold the U.S. to account for their bloody threats of militarism. Refuse to enact or impose any trumped-up resolution on Iran. Put the U.S. warmongers on the defensive. Stand up for those principles of liberty and freedom that the Bush regime disregards as obstacles to their consolidation of power. Give meaning to the principles of due process and burden of proof by forcing the U.S. to produce evidence of Iran's intentions they say threaten us.

Don't allow yourselves to be led around by the pack of U.S. liars. You're an international force. Lead like your lives depend on it. They do.
