Summary: I'm fer it

I think any group that gets nations talking is A Good Thing.
In general, the more communication going on about world problems the better.
Ninety percent is hot air, but the rest may actually do some good, and is
unlikely to do any harm.

I even think the Warsaw Pact is a good thing, since the other advantage of
shared-interest groups is that moderation tends to prevail.  It is a lot
easier to commit your own nation to war than it is to commit a whole big
buncha nations to a war, even when the other nations are fairly puppetish
satellite states.
