Personal Response Those two speeches quite possibly are the best he ever made. Truthfully, I didn't question the UN much until hearing the second one. Obviously they had screwed up Rwanda, but otherwise I hadn't. The second speech, however, clearly explained why the UN was in a fight for it's life to prove itself relevant in the world today. I am NOT saying that it was a US threat - it was nothing of the kind. It's own response (the UN's) dictated its own future. What it did was go back to basic leadership/management principles. People can be assigned roles, but they don't get leadership roles unless they ARE leaders. Authority - true authority - isn't given, it's earned. By allowing itself to be manipulated by so many different countries on so many different issues, the UN has ceased to exercise a leadership role. End of Personal Response |

You certainly have an excellent command of the English language and are able to express yourself in a manner I can only dream about. What especially stood out were the words cited above. You are absolutely correct about the issue of leadership as it applies to the United Nations, and I couldn't have said it better. |
