    And are you saying you would prefer to be invaded by many countries as opposed to sone or two? I'm not sure what you are saying.

    Uesugi Kenshin - what if you disagree with what the UN declares "illegal"? What if this organization progresses so far as to have a global draft, and your number gets called? I bet you wouldn't be so hot for it then. But, hey, the UN needs troops to force the US to comply with their rules, so Uncle Kofi needs you.

    And no one (NO ONE, not just the US) would agree to have whole divisions of their armed forces comandeered by an organization out of their control.
    Rather many then one and yes Sweden would contribute to this amassaing of troops, you doubt swedes can fight or something?

    Let's be serious, who elected Kofi Annan? A world police would presuppose a genuine, representative world government. Which seems rather far off, to put it very, very diplomatically.
