"That said, the UN has done alot of good over the years. Peace keeping troops, lots of help with Hunger programs, Aids, etc, etc."

Er, uh, what about the Tutsi's? The were practically wiped out by the Hutu's right in front of the U.N. peacekeepers. That's not the only case, either. I remember someone by the name of Idi Amin...

As for the other 'good' things they get credit for, one should look at the source(s) of funds for those things. We provide the money, they get the credit.
