South American Union is Born
According to a Los Angeles Times article on May 24, 2008 and an article by the BBC on the 23rd, the South American Union or Unasur was created by the leaders of 12 South American nations. Some members hope Unasur could become a regional version of the EU. Again, FAUX, CNN and MSNBC missed reporting a big story

Here's the text of the first article:
South America nations found union
Some members hope Unasur could become a regional version of the EU
The leaders of 12 South American nations have formed a regional body aimed at boosting economic and political integration in the region.
At a summit in Brazil, they signed a treaty which created the Union of South American Nations (Unasur).
Brazil's President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva said the move showed that South America was becoming a "global player".
But tensions between several members will make it difficult for the group to achieve its goals, observers say.
Mr Lula said at the summit in Brasilia that the differences between some Unasur governments were a sign of vitality in the region.
"The instability some want to see in our continent is a sign of life, especially political life," Mr Lula said.
"There's no democracy without people [protesting] in the streets," he added.
The treaty envisages that Unasur will have a revolving presidency and bi-annual meetings of foreign ministers.
Prior to the Brasilia summit, Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez described the "empire" of the United States as Unasur's "number one enemy".
Mr Chavez is embroiled in a bitter diplomatic row with his Colombian counterpart Alvaro Uribe - a staunch US ally - over Colombian claims that Venezuela has been helping to finance the activities of the Colombian Farc rebels.
The Unasur members are Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Guyana, Paraguay, Peru, Suriname, Uruguay and Venezuela.

This subject was already posted in other topics. Instead of creating new threads you could post them under the same thread with related content. It makes it much easier to find.

Agreed. And, since the subject of similar topics has come up, I have a question which is:
Is there some way admin and moderators can begin combining related threads as opposed to just locking them?
Another forum I belong to has a considerable problem with duplicate/similar threads being started and they just started combining them when it happens. That way, similar topics are kept in one place for easy reference and access, no posters' comments are lost to locked threads, and it solved a lot of the headaches it was causing for everyone involved.
Just something I've been wondering about, that's all.Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)

I guess some South American leaders tragically learned NOTHING from the unmitigated DISASTERS the EU and NAFTA turned out to be!
