Many of the GOP House members and a few of the GOP Senators are no friend to the United Nations. The reasons for this are myriad and range anywhere from the unconscionable amount of money that the United States contributes to the overall UN budget of $8B a year to its clearly anti-Semitic views and actions. But make no mistake: there are many supporters in our government, both high-ranking Democrats and Republicans, who would rather push back against any and all cuts to the 193-nation body headquartered in New York City.
The sickening facts surrounding the United Nations’ ability to play up to a very compliant Leftist media when it comes to funding are almost too much to bear without losing your dinner. Business Insider, an avid and constant cheerleader for the United Nations, was keen to note that the all of the funding that the United States provides is actually a really good deal!
But when it comes to UN programs — UN peacekeeping in particular — the US already gets a pretty good deal.
US funding for the UN and its agencies adds up to a little over $4.5 billion a year — the cost of about two B-1 bombers — according to an analysis by the Center for Global Development.
US government estimates have also found that relying on UN peacekeepers is beneficial to the American taxpayer.
In Haiti in 2004, a coup prompted the US to deploy military forces to avert a potential refugee crisis. After the initial intervention, the Bush administration convinced the UN to field peacekeepers.
“We estimate that it would cost the United States about twice as much as the United Nations (UN) to conduct a peacekeeping operation similar to the current UN Stabilization Mission in Haiti,” which was called Minustah, the Government Accountability Office wrote in a 2006 report.
Yes, but what else did those “savings” to the U.S. budget get us? Or rather, what did they get Haiti?
Glad you asked!
UN aid workers from Nepal were identified as the source of a cholera outbreak which killed over 10,000 Haitians and sickened hundreds of thousands more. Yet the UN claimed diplomatic immunity and refused to provide compensation.
Wow! Now that’s the kind of quality that money just can’t buy! And in this case, it didn’t!
And now, the United Nations Chief is threatening the United States with the forfeiture of its vote in the General Assembly if it cuts its funding to a point where it is detrimental to the body. Read more about the White House reply to the UN over its threats on the following page.
F**k the U.N..
UNEXIT NOW ! ! !
Start packing, oh and “no more funding” take it afganistan
Pull out, and kick them off US soil, the Falklands might apprieciate the buisness.
PLEASE expel us
Please do, we do not need the un. They need us
I would love it if the United States was “expelled”. This organization was created for a one world order. I’m well aware of the ‘peace propaganda’. Those of you that believe that, have not lived long enough & confuse hype with reality.
Send the UN out of our country we don’t need them we are a Sovereign Nation and we let them take all the Muslims with them they’re just trying to take our constitution away from Free People president Trump won’t stand for that as far as I’m concerned they can go suck the big one
They only want our money. UN seems as evil as russia or north Korea.
The UN is being influenced by the Devil. All of them need to repent of the sins they commit and ask Jesus to save them. Their arrogance and hatred grieves God who will withdraw his mercy from them in his time. But judgment will come. No sinner escapes.
