Re:USA against the World? (Score 1)

I would retort that there is no good reason for blanket statements. Why would we want to fund an organization that would take political advantage of us??? Right wrong, or indifferent UNESCO is an organization that's stated goal is to pursue cultural and scientific goals... why get involved in making political statement and lose a quarter of your funding to make some sort of political statement??? UNESCO should have just minded their business and let the Security council do theirs, they chose to make a political statement instead of do their job and now they will lose a quarter of their funding. This was not a surprise, perhaps they're hoping other Arab nations will appreciate their gesture and make up the difference. Or Perhaps they just care more about sticking one to the U.S. than they do about doing their job.
