The UN has done useful work in the past (Korea, Gulf One, even the November resolution, and other smaller matters, some of which are controversial around here like family planning, but which has made a measurable contribution to improving the standard of living in so many places), and it will again.

The U.N. fed Allied information to the communists during the Korean 'conflict', causing the needless deaths of many Americans. Ii would hardly call that a success.

As for the useful work in the past .. I don't disagree, to a point, but by not taking a stand and backing their OWN resolution they are becoming irrelevant

If don't stand behind their own words, what dictator in this world will take them seriously
