    Idiotic post. I never said any thing about holding UN Ambassadors hostage, or storming the UN Headquarters. Merely, revoking the Ambassadors Visa and diplomatic immunity. Further, we incrassate US citizens for a large amounts of tickets. Without diplomatic immunity, we do the same thing to Ambassadors who have outstand tickets. As far as US debt, that has nothing to do with the UN.

    Members of the UN that represents countries are called Ambassadors to the UN. Kelly Craft is the US Ambassador to the UN.

    You didn't bother to read my post did you? I said that the US should remove diplomatic immunity for UN Ambassadors. We can do this when we kick the UN out of the US.

    Europe is so great that it couldn't even keep its most important member (UK) in the fold.

    If "Europe" couldn't keep the UK in I really doubt they could get the US "out".

    You cant. You can declare them persona non grata. Their immunity can only be revoked by their own nation

    You do know that President Trump will be gone in anywhere 7 months to 4 years and 7 months don't you.

    When President Obama was in office, you Europeans couldn't bend over fast enough.

    When Obama was President, Germany kicked out your CIA official, spied on the Airforce One and blocked free trade agreement

    Which part of Europe are "we"? Why do you believe you have a say in what we do here in the US?

    Not when it is us deciding to leave you don't get to tell us to stay. You really think we can't leave without your permission, the country we defeated twice and especially in the latest ending the worst atrocities ever committed in modern times by your country?

    You make no sense. What does Trump have to do with you visiting the US or not? Support him with what?

    1. We have a big majority who want you out completly.

    2. You were not involved in both WW. USA joined when it was over.

    As for atrocities, tell me something we did, that your country did not.

    If the UN is forced out of this country, the they no longer have diplomatic immunity. They are no longer Ambassadors. They are merely tourists, and subject to US laws.

    Stop lying, Bluesguy! Nobody got slaughtered. You Americans didn't have to save anybody's "arse". Without you, the Russians would have been defeated and that would have been it. BUT... now, in your imagination, the Russians are a threat to you. Truth is, Russia welcomed Trump’s plan to withdraw more than a quarter of U.S. troops from Germany, saying it would help bolster security in Europe.
    Aha, they mean “we would welcome any steps by Washington to scale down its military presence in Europe.”

    “Such steps would undoubtedly help reduce confrontational potential and ease military and political tensions in the Euro-Atlantic region,” Zakharova from Russia's Foreign Ministry said at a briefing, adding that the large U.S. military presence in Germany is a “vestige of the Cold War.”
    Zakharova challenged the U.S. to also take its tactical nuclear weapons home from Germany.
    She also strongly warned Washington against redeploying some of the troops from Germany to Poland, saying it would further exacerbate tensions and undermine prospects of dialogue between Russia and NATO.

    This could get interesting, to say the least. Hopefully, Trump will do the right thing and take his soldiers and toys home across the Atlantic.
    Will he? He loves to change his mind to confuse people. What do you think?

    I'm dealing with reality and history you are dealing with what if's. Here's a what if, had it not been for the US Russia would have been defeated along with Europe and the UK by Germany. The US had to step in twice and save their arse's.

    Murdered six million Jews and five million others for starters.

    World War one still had two years to go when the U.S. joined.
    World War two still had four years to go when the U.S. joined.

    Hardly "over" by any stretch of the word.
