Is the UN accomplishing its purpose or is it failing just as the League of Nations did?

Question

"The purpose of the United Nations is to bring all nations of the world together to work for peace and development, based on the principles of justice, human dignity and the well-being of all people. It affords the opportunity for countries to balance global interdependence and national interests when addressing international problems." Source. www.UN.org

Answer 1

The UN failed its purpose since conception. It's socialist c**p. It's all politics.

I don't remember the UN condemning the invasion of a mercenary army to create Israel and it's not condemning the US invasion in Iraq. It didn't questioned the power of the USSR over all its satellites after WWII and we're talking about a member.

The UN has no reason to exist. It has been used (and will be used in the future) to set a cloak of legality to whatever its powerful members want to do to other countries (or look the other way if needed).

Answer 2

The REAL purpose of the UN is to condemn the US and Israel for existing, while collecting and squandering the generous support from those two nations.  Their stated "purpose" is nothing more than a smokescreen.

Answer 3

They're failing as a result of the Yanks continuing their unilateral approach to world affairs!!

Answer 4

its definately failing, or at least losing a lot of ground on what it should have accomplished. But it is doing SIGNIFICANTLY better than the league of nations which lasted just over a decade and failed to prevent aldolf hitler from starting WW2. it fails to tackle nations like america that wantonly invade other countries and prevent atrocities like those in rowanda and somalia.

Answer 5

You are right for the most part....

They call themselves leaders....but don't they need some kind of direction to lead us in?

Answer 6

The UN ain't Jesus... that is all.

The Messianic Kingdom is the solution.
