Time after time the United Nations has been given the opportunity to “do what was right” in the eyes of the innocent and tortured, the threatened and the oppressed existing throughout the world.

Not really. The UN was established to give each nation an equal say, at least in the General Assembly. There is absolutely no discrimination between nations based on their internal systems and structures. If there was, maybe we'd see some results.
The true world body should be the "League of Free Peoples". The views of this body might be worthy of respect. No resolution of a body of dictators should carry any weight.
The League of Free Peoples could perhaps have a "Chamber of Dictators", where they allow the representatives of dictatorships to spout their views, and sometimes there is merit to hearing what they have to say. But they would not be allowed to participate in the debate on resolutions and policy.
That would be an organization that we might not always agree with, but which we could at least give consideration to.
My point exactly. We would just get more of the same so why bother? Just get rid of the UN.
How you can you have a legitimate world organization when most world governments are run by criminals?
