Here's a clear example of the BBC's everlasting pro-UN, anti-US line (a line that has even survived the election of the sainted Barack Obama), courtesy of Sarah Montague on this morning's Today programme (in an interview with Labour's Douglas Alexander): "When you see the American troops on the ground and the criticism of them, this fear that some people immediately voiced about their role there, did you think that perhaps that was a role that should have been done by a United Nations standing army?" Well at least she didn't ask for an EU standing army!
