As flawed as it may be, The UN is the only existing mechanism for working out disagreements on the world stage in ways other war.

Multilateralism is Democracy on a global scale and again, flawed but a whole hell of a lot better than imposing ones will through force.

We need more Multilateral institutions not less. We need a world court and a free, open, trans[parent and real World Trade Organization as opposed to the secretive ashadow organization currently holding that title.

Especially as the counter proposal to Multilateralism is Bush's schoolyard bully/moron "You're with us or against us" threats.

To reject Multilateralsim is to reject basic democratic principles when they apply to other people.
