Good riddance, I guess. Between Guantanamo, allying with Saudi Arabia and Israel, and tearing down recent treaties with Iran and Cuba, it's hard to argue that our government cares much about human rights.

I;m sure the council will be in good hands with the chinese and russians, lol.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

I'm more comfortable on the human wrongs council anyway.

What is the matter with you people? What would you do about North Korea? Not talk to them? That's worked out super well.
