I am always interested in learning about things. Please do provide some evidence for your claim that the United Nations (not sure why UN is in quotes in your posting) is the largest spy network on US soil. I am aware that the US has been accused of spying on UN leaders.

If your assertion is simply that some members of delegations may gather intelligence, it would be just as reasonable to assert that some or most members of the embassy of any nation have a covert role. I don't see anyone suggesting we close all the embassy and consulate offices. Please take a few calming breaths before replying as I do not wish to be responsible for your hypertensive stroke.
