How serious can the UN resolutions be when representatives of regimes that oppress and murder people in their countries sit in the UN and can vote about whether or not has Isreal the right to defend itself? Countries like Syria and Iran with one goal in mind - destruction of Isreal - vote on the declaration whether Isreal has the right to defend itself against terrorist militia supported and funded by Syria and Iran. How can you take the UN seriously?

The UN is given way too much credit, while it deserves little to none.
