Why did America get any trouble over dropping a nuclear bomb on two civilian targets.
It Is a war crime which they got away with.

And I would say you are a prejudiced fool in need of a history lesson and a little culture (not to mention class).

Brain dead............Probably a straight A student at school, but completely clueless about everything else.
Are you a momma's boy by chance?
Are you one of those sissy kids who after they ran their mouths, hid behind his mother so he didn't get his butt kicked?
War crime, you are so entertaining to me. I am so pleased to have people like you posting here so that I can make fun of you..........Now run off and tell mommy on me sissyboy

The UN Security Council has an illogical, unjust and completely undemocratic structure and mechanism. This is a flagrant form of dictatorship, which is antiquated and obsolete and whose expiry date has passed. It is through abusing this improper mechanism that America and its accomplices have managed to disguise their bullying as noble concepts and impose it on the world.

Im pretty sure the awesome speech that the Grand Ayatollah just made at the NAM Summit.
The world is starting to openly call the UN out for what it is. Who could argue with him?
I can.
I don't agree with what he says about the UN. I think the concept and the organization has a long and respectable history of peacekeeping. The only thing off-hand that I can say I disagree with when it comes to the UN is the veto right that some countries have. So there's room for improvement, sure, but the organization is a lot better an option than another World War, for example.
And that's what UN was made to prevent - a third world war. Just because the Eastern Bloc has fallen and the Cold War is over doesn't mean there's no longer a risk for that. In fact, I'm thinking in the near future, we're going to need UN more than ever, with all the up-and-coming superpowers that are making their appearance around the world.

From my life experiences, peopel turn to acting like this when they don't have anything intelligent to say and /or have been beaten itellectually by another. I"m just saying you make yourself look like a fool. Being "tough" on the internet screams attention seeking. It also invalidates anything insightful you might be trying to say.

We don't agree on much, the OP and I, but this time, I think that a regular theocracy should avoid nuclear proliferation at all costs.
I even agree with him on his hesitation to agree with the UN. I, too, agree that any sovereign nation should be able to conduct internal affairs such as this...but, sadly, for a "greater good" they must be "told what to do." This seems counter-intuitive, but may, in fact, be better for every human on the planet.

I'm definitely not pro-Iran, but the UN should mind their own business unless/until Iran flubs up and nukes somebody.
In the USA we all complain that we don't want the UN to interfere with our sovereignity, so why should we condone the UN infringing on anyone else's?
The UN is quickly becoming something it was never intended to be- a power hungry beast that wants to rule the world. I understand there are still good people who are part of the UN but they are rapidly becoming the minority in the power grab sweepstakes.
If you don't want the UN telling you what you can and cannot do in your own country you shouldn't support them doing it in somebody else's country.

See, Iran IS UN's business. Or, to put it another way; If the UN "minded their own business", they wouldn't be doing their job. Their job is to get in the world's nations' business, and do what they can to prevent war. Now, whether that means admonishing Iran, or pointing fingers at the US, the fact remains, their job isn't to make friends with either. Their job is to prevent war. If they were popular, that would mean in all likelyhood, they wouldn't be doing their job.
As a sidenote, the UN's fingerpointing is usually restricted to countries where wars are being fought (mainly civil wars) in a very inhumane or illegal way.
Im not on the left and you try typing on a ps vita. Im a gun owning liberty loving american. Im just saying your going way overboard and it makes us all look silly.

An intellectual..you mean the kind that can't correctly spell simple words like the word people......even with the help of a spell checker? yea you really showed me didn't you. Let me help you out here PEOPLE is how you spell people, but don't take my word for it because I am not nearly as smart as you are.
Attention seeking??? Really from a lefty you think I want attention......that is funny.
As for invalidating anything I might say......A leftist mind is incapable of understanding anything valid, that is why they are called leftist....Don't you know anything???
