U.S. warned on dues freeze

U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan's chief of staff yesterday acknowledged that scandals involving Iraq, peacekeeping and human rights have hurt the world body, but said any move to freeze or cut U.S. dues would set back the cause of reform.

"The option of withholding money immediately sets you off from all of your allies in this fight," Mark Malloch Brown, Mr. Annan's recently appointed chief of staff, told a House International Relations Committee hearing.

"It would be seen as the United States once again acting alone," he said.


Oooooohhh! What're they gonna do, kick us out?

Hey...wait...Yeah! I dare you to kick us out! Yeah, you pansies, you don't have the stones to kick us out!
