After all they went to war over a few hundred sand nigger deaths, and not a nation like NK.
NK who has killed over twice as many as the jews in ww2,no reaction but sanctions.
The UN gives countries such as China,and Iran the platform to attack the USA about our "crimes against humanity"
We are cutting our budget left and right, so why not getting out of the UN,and get the UN out of our country?

Are you seriously asking why politicians don't withdraw from an organization where politicians can get cozy, well-paid jobs which don't even require the appearance of capability because they aren't elected by the public?

While we're at it, let's just withdraw all support and finances from the IMF and just accept the economic hit we take in the short run (at this point, we'd be used to that).
One thing I never thought was right is positioning the UN in the United States. Give them a cruise ship out in the middle of the Atlantic, one that docks somewhere only for repairs or supply and otherwise exists in appropriately-enough "international waters."

The UN is a diplomatic body, so naturally it represents power structure rather than logical ethics, tyrants across the world can have their say and trump reason.
Disgusting but a necessary evil for if there were no platform for them to express their positions in an official capacity then we would not know how best to act.

The UN is a debating body, so naturally it represents powerless structure of logical ethics. tyrants across the world can have their say and we can do absolutely nothing.
Disgusting and an unnecessary evil for if there were no platform for them to express their positions in an official capacity then we would not know how best to debate them to no effect.

On at least one level, I'd wish the US really would leave the UN alone. If only cos it's been reduced to a bickering ground where what we needed was an organisation that could actually get shit DONE.
For starters, Israel would have to start meddling in such (hitherto alien) concepts as diplomacy and PR, instead of crying "zomfg 6 million dead waaah" for the 6 millionth time whenever something fails to go their way. They'd have to actually look at how they're treating their neighbours, rather than bullying the world into letting Israel make all Jews look like Gestapo wannabes.
The UN has already become a Talk-Only Parliament of No Real Action, but at least then the US wouldn't systematically quash any attempt at making Israel at least reconsider its methods.
