WATTERS: And then they sabotaged the teleprompter. I mean, this is an insurrection. And what we need to do is either leave the UN or we need to bomb it. It is in New York though right?
GUTFELD: Yeah, it is.
WATTERS: Could be some fallout there. Alright, maybe gas it?
DANA PERINO (CO-HOST): Let’s not do that.
WATTERS: Don’t gas it. Okay, but we need to destroy it. Maybe can we demolish the building? Have everybody leave and then we will demolish the building.
Downvoted for actually knowing the truth. Am I back on Reddit?
“though the structure is physically situated in the United States, the land occupied by the United Nations headquarters and the spaces of buildings that it rents are under the sole administration of the United Nations. They are technically extraterritorial through a treaty agreement with the U.S. government.”

I actually found that an interesting fact. Also don’t worry too much about downvotes, karma isn’t really a thing here.
Downvoted for being a redditor by missing the point to argue something inconsequential.
It’s not inconsequential if there’s an attack though? It being on foreign soil means a high level judge appointed by Trump can literally just rule that no laws were broken on US soil.
Yeah. I’m confused. I mean, it’s legally intentional territory but functions as part of New York for obvious reasons. It’s a little more nuanced, to say the least.
Okay and what would happen if that were bombed or gassed? It doesn’t matter if the land is politically separated. Bombs will physically destroy it and the surrounding area. Therefore it is not the truth in this context because we are speaking of the location of the land itself.
It makes things worse actually. It being on foreign soil means a high level judge appointed by Trump can literally just rule that no laws were broken on US soil.
We all wish you stayed there.
