55. No the UN is not sovereign.
The United Nations (UN) is an international organization whose stated aims are facilitating cooperation in international law, international security, economic development, social progress, human rights, and achievement of world peace.
It is much more than a sovereign state. It was created by FDR and Churchill in 1942 in order to facilitate progress amongst the "sovereign" states of the world. The UN is much more important than the US. Let's not forget the US went
to war with Iraq without a UN mandate and look how that turned out. The US lied, 100's of thousands died, the US's reputation has suffered immensely, the lier's still remain at large protected by the US federal govt. It's amazing you don't
scream for Cheney the way you do for Bradley Manning's head considering Cheney and the Yellow Cake Plame thing has led to 5000 US service members deaths. That's where real justice needs to be served.
