Bush intervened in Somalia, and Clinton continued the mission.

After US troops were killed and the US evacuated, there was some acrimony among the congressional GOP about the UN and specific legislation outlawing US troops being under UN command.

The Republican majority elected in 1994 and later the GWB Administration had a more disapproving attitude of the UN, devalued multilateral consensus and arms control treaties.

Does the GOP at the Congressional and Executive level still go down this path without the Somalia debacle and feeling the UN was responsible for mess?
