Evil , Crazy , or Both?

Yesterday I had the unusual experience of listening to Libyan president Qaddafi . To say the least I was stunned , as if I was driving by a terrible auto accident , it was so disturbing I wanted to turn away , yet it was fascinating in it's grotesque attraction . Qaddafi rambled on for over ninety minutes from subjects ranging from jet lag to the Kennedy assassination . He complained about his lack of sleep , airport security , and the re-location of the U.N. (which I would love to see). I had some real empathy for those diplomats who were his captive audience during his inane diatribe . The sadder note is that this loon is the head of a sovereign nation . Now we can all understand the importance of term limits! Not quite as humorous yet , just as insane Iranian president Ahmaddinejad spoke , his statements were at best spurious . He spoke about his democratic election , the mandate he received from the Iranian people. This had all the credibility of a Cook County Aldermanic election without any of the glitz. Ahmadinejad has denied the Holocaust , his hatred of Israel is legendary. This border-line sociopath will soon have the ability to deliver nuclear weapons against those nations he deems to merit the wrath of Allah. He has stated that it would be his honor to launch the battle that would begin the Muslim end of the world. The forum provided for these lunatics to rant insane theories is held up as a bastion for peace yet , it has done little to nothing to stabilize the world from threats and conflicts brought about by the lunatic fringe . As Americans you need to see how much funding the U.N. receives from your taxpayers dollars , the amount is staggering approximately 25% of it's cost is shouldered by us! We can dismiss Qaddafi and Ahmaddinejad has just crazy , but , this may be a very dangerous assumption , I believe they mean what they say. Will the U.N. do anything to prevent rogue nations from doing grave harm to those who they perceive to be their enemies . We need to be prepared to defend ourselves and those who remain our allies , and not depend on a non-elected body for the security of our citizens , and our friends . My question is , did anybody vote for anyone in the U.N. , and should we turn over control to an organization that gives a measure of credibility to evil leadership? Crazy , Evil , you make up your own mind , I've made up mine!
