Actually, there's also New Zealand.

And Bermuda.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Feh. Silly little islands.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I hear the J'can representative to the UN chewed out the US. I'm looking for a transcript.

So, if there is an unwanted draft will the Aussies split for NZ the way the Americans split for Canada?

Btw.... if we need any amorous sheep or funny shorts we can make them ourselves! t /flag waving

Hello! I must be going.

Ita, found the statement in The Gleaner. Choose The Jamaica Gleaner for all your J'ca needs!

Not too rough a statement, actually, very diplomatic and thoughtful.

Hello! I must be going.

Do small countries really feel that the UN is important in the world? I think most Americans are still smarting from the debating-society, Zionism=racism, having to take places like Libya and the old Soviet Union as a moral force, and some very well-publicized crimes by diplomats and diplomat's kids in NY era.

I can't speak for many, but a country the size of J'ca doesn't get much chance to have an influence on a global scale (well, there's the pervasive undercover effort I can't tell you about until just before I kill you) except in arenas like the UN. We don't have the money, or the weapons of mass destruction or anything.

What do crimes by diplomats have to do with the UN?

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

Well, considering it would require a plane or boat to get there, probably not.

Of course, as someone who's never had to worry about the draft, it's a moot point for me. :)
