Everyone gets a go. You cant not let certain countries have a go, because then someone needs to decide who doesnt get to do it, and you'll never agree to that, just because you don't want Libya to have it doesnt mean everyone thinks that way.
What does defeat mean to you?

Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

A third each from France, Italy, and Germany, of course! :P I'd say the Germans will produce the most useful one, the Italians a very fashionable model, and the French, well, it should cut butter.

But I'd amend it to this:

Pretty sure the rest of the civilized world thinks that way.

Nope. Otherwise the Libyans would have the presidency would they? Moreover, what grounds are there to refuse them the presidency - this is the General Assembly we're talking about, not the security council. It's a talking shop, nothing more.

Aye, I don't have much of a problem with it. It's not as though they can actualy do anything without the rest of the UN agreeing. All they can do is make the UN look even more stupid.

The Swiss probably didn't like his son because he name was Hannibal. After all then probably didn't want him coming over the mountains.
