REGARDING the trouble in the Balkans, in the past when trouble has started in different parts of the world, various countries have got involved, sometimes with questionable motives of self-interest.
Now, wouldn't it be wonderful and more effective in these days of fast travel if the countries of the world could form an international police force so that they could operate like the police in this country and quell trouble at the source.
Then, no country could make trouble and get way with it.
If a police force is right for a nation, it is right for the world of nations.
I feel that a suitable name for this world organisation could be The United Nations.
