With respect, if thats the plan its a shit one. Sure, no one has dropped the hammer yet, but aint done shit all for the suffering.

The purpose of the UN is to get people talking in a room, as opposed to standing on opposite sides of the battlefield. To try and talk it out.
Itâs not perfect. nothing involving humans is. People seem to think itâs like World Police but itâs not.

till one of the permanent members of the security council use their veto anyway.
But hear me out, what if it was? Syria. Ukraine. Palestine/Israel. Georgia. Somalia. Civilians dead under the current system. I get nothings perfect, but fuck man we gotta do better than this.

The veto only applies to security council, not geberal assembly and is a bit of a two edged sword.
But in regards to world police? Youâre trying to use a drill as a hammer. Itâs not designed for that.
Ok, UN as a world police. How does that work? What actions do they take now?
