Funny that some conserrvatives still call the UN a world government. Nothing shows the reach and power of the real global imperial, the US, like its ability to deny asylum in any country to Edward Snowden. Oh, and its total brutality. It is capable of threatening, and carrying out, bombing a country back into the stone age, in the US phrase, if it disobeys an imperial diktat. As for the Man of Conscience, pray that he is not turned over to the merciless torturers and murderers of the empire.
