Note
As the Obama administration struggles to defend a military strike on Syria, officials are having a difficult time squaring the administration's five year love affair with the United Nations with an impotent Security Council. Here is former UN Ambassador Susan Rice's unsuccessful attempt: "The fact is, President Obama has consistently demonstrated his commitment to multilateral diplomacy. He would much prefer the backing of the United Nations Security Council...But let's be realistic-it's just not going to happen now...[T]hree times, Russia and China doubled vetoed almost meaningless resolutions..." For years she carried on about Obama's (alleged) successes at the UN. Just a couple of months out of the job and it's now the UN's meaningless resolutions. Will the real Susan Rice please stand up?
