I was reading a review of a book called 'the return of history' which is a bit of a reposte to fukuyama's neo con fantasy, and is written by one of john mccain's advisers.

anyway, apparently this guy is big on advising mccain that what we need to check US unilateralism without getting mired down by tinpot dictators and fascist states, is a league of democracies as an alternative to the UN.

is this a good idea - the obvious flaws is whether the US will ever allow itself to be checked if it really has a mind to do something, but that already exists anyway.

other than that it seems a potentially good idea to me. although that said, it may open up a distance with the bam states, that might inhibit moving them away from bampottery.
