I've always said that the UN has become an over politicized mess where national stature is more important then the common good. The vote to deny Canada its seat at the security council is a prime example of this. The UN has been taken over by tin pot dictators and the worst human rights abusers and we allow this in the name of political correctness.
The UN is weak, it has no strength, peace keeping as a concept is dead because the UN has no resolve whatsover. Honestly waring sides should be frightened into ending their conflicts at the first sign of UN peace keepers, instead they laugh and order more bullets.
And what isn't useless is corrupt with as many senior members stuffing their pockets as possible.
At least the league of nations had the good sense to die when it couldn't live up to its mandate.
