Icon5 U.S vs. The World - Why?

Some may say that our government is the world champion of peace, if so, why has our government blocked so many U.N bills?

Here are three examples for you:

1. General and complete disarmament: consolidation of peace through practical disarmament measures.

2. Prevention of an arms race in outer space.

3. General and complete disarmament: the illicit trade in small arms and light weapons in all its aspects.
http://disarmament.un.org/vote.nsf/5...on=3#_Section3

These are specific votes (and there are more...) that have gone:
"The World" vs. U.S (veto)

1. Does our country really want peace?
2. Is the U.S becoming a "Rogue" superpower?
