Interesting article. In a simular vein, one of the things that have bothered me is the liberal's reflexive disdain of the recent transfer of power in Iraq. Some of the most common words is that it is only a show and that the US still controls Iraq. Most of the same people consider Bosnia a textbook case of how to nation build successfully but what they don't realize is the UN High Representative (almost colonial sounding isn't it?) has the authority to make any laws and nullify and laws he wants.... Who is more soverign?

Not only that, but Bosnia was CLINTON'S debacle, not Bush's. The other point to address is as you say, the PEOPLE are not sovereign and are being brainwashed into believing their rights are being protected by government, not themselves. Once they get that pounded in they SHOULD kick the UN OUT.

Aah... there it is: sovereignty. Quick, give it back to 'em! Without it they can't oppress, wage war or ethnically cleanse!

In a devil's advocate type vein, check out what I think of sovereignty when it comes to countries that don't have the education to deal with it:

Problems in Kosovo
Someone tell John Kerry that U.N. and NATO cooperation don't ensure a successful nation-building operation. "Insurgency in Kosovo"...
