#1 Leave it to the UN to maximize the potential for long lunches and endless meetings and negotiations.

Apparently the UN never read the memo about how fanatics only go through the motions of negotiating while they burn the house down around you....while promising not to.

This means you too John.

#2 When President Cruz / Walker takes the oath of office, can we then move the UN to Strasbourg, or Lausanne or somewhere else, and cut off the payments?

#5 Gaza: all that picturesque rubble... Though I haven't heard anything about the five star restaurants and hotels, or those beautiful marble and brass shopping malls being damaged, so that's ok.

#6 I nominate Pyongyang, because N Korea leads the world in the battle against light pollution.

#7 This cluster fuck of a peace talk will last years.

What are the overs and unders of them still arguing over the shape of the table and the site of the peace talks this time next year?

#8 UN = Leftist Elites = Golgafrinchans - thus:

- Order, order! - If I could just say Order, order! I would like to call to order the 573rd meeting of the colonisation committee of the planet of Fintlewoodlewix.
This is futile! 573 meetings and you haven't even discovered fire yet! If you care to look at the agenda, we are having a report from the Hairdressers' Fire Development Sub-committee.
That's me.
That's you? What have you done? Well they gave me a couple of sticks.
Yes.
And? Curling tongs? You're going to die out, you know that? You are obviously being totally naive! When you've been in marketing as long as I have, you know that before any new product can be developed it has to be properly researched.
We've got to find out what people want from fire, how they relate to its image - Stick it up your nose! - Precisely what we need to know.
Do people want fire that can be fitted nasally? And the wheel! What about this wheel thing? They say it's a fascinating project.
We're having a little difficulty there.
Difficulty? It's the single simplest machine in the entire Universe! All right, Mr Wiseguy! You're so clever, you tell us what colour it should be! O Mighty Zarquon! - Has no one done anything yet? - Yes! I have declared war on the next continent.
Declared war? There's no one living there.
Yes.
But there will be one day.
- So we've left an open-ended ultimatum.
- What? And blown up a few military installations.
- Military installations, Number Two? - Yes, sir.
Well, potential military installations.
All right, trees.
