Story: Should the UN administer the Internet?

The biggest problem with the UN is itself. It has lost all the respect it ever had with the international community and become merely a "talking shop" for politicians.

It was this sort of attitude that it's predecessor - the League of Nations - set up after World War I encountered, and led to it's downfall. Part was apathy and part was the Great Depression of 1933; mainly though was the loss of confidence.

As far as the UN administering the Internet is concerned, I would ask them, why, when there has been so much adverse publicity aboout that organisation, from the Secretary General on down, do they think they should embark on another possibly ill-fated venture.

UN, put your OWN house in order first, THEN look at other problems.
