UN joins forces with Marvel Comics

In a move reminiscent of storylines developed during the second world war, the UN is joining forces with Marvel Comics, creators of Spider-Man and the Incredible Hulk, to create a comic book showing the international body working with superheroes to solve bloody conflicts and rid the world of disease.
The comic, initially to be distributed free to 1m US schoolchildren, will be set in a war-torn fictional country and feature superheroes such as Spider-Man working with UN agencies such as Unicef and the “blue hats”, the UN peacekeepers.

So they are going to distribute the comics propaganda to our children in school. Here is the UN's stated goal.
The UN’s goals are somewhat different: according to its website, it hopes the comics will teach children the value of international co- operation and sensitise them to the problems faced in other parts of the world.

Now it seems to me there is only one portion of the world that isn't interested in cooperation. You know that sector that gets enraged over cartoons and teddy bears and other silly things. Why aren't they giving them the comic books instead of the indoctranation kiddie programming they have now? Silly me I know the US is the seat of evil in the world, but that seat is located in the UN building.

And just for old times sake here is John Bolton showing some love to the UN.
