Heavy metal maven Dave Mustaine is so angry with the United Nations that he is naming his group Megadeth’s next album “United Abominations.”
“I was watching TV and saw the trucks that said ‘UN’ on them and said, ‘Man, you are so uncool, ineffective, anything,” the singer/guitarist said in a recent Billboard interview.

Notice Reuters though:
The longtime bane of American conservatives, the United Nations has been criticized for its slow responses to humanitarian crises in hot spots such as Darfur and Rwanda. U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan recently expressed frustration that the group took so long to broker a ceasefire between Israel and Hizbollah in Lebanon.
There are those wacky Phyllis Schafly types with the “evict the U.N.” bumper stickers. Silly people. Nevermind, say, the U.N.’s Oil-for-Food travesty.
