There might be those with good intentions who participate in United Nations’ debates and votes, but for the most part, the organization is useless. This is easily demonstrated. It is supposed to be an advocate and force for world peace, yet there have been multiple wars in progress throughout the organization’s existence.
And when it comes down to it, does anyone really believe that if some of the world’s major powers were determined to go to war that a vote by the UN would deter them? Even more ridiculous is the idea that it can force nations to disarm. At best it provides physical space where belligerents can hurl insults at each other with little fear of violence breaking out on the spot.
At worst, it’s a waste of time and money, and provides a false hope to peoples and nations that really would like to live in peace.
It’s current vote on banning nuclear weapons is an excellent example.
More on this vote on page two.
Go to hell. We’re dropping out of UN and don’t give a dam what you think about anything.
I guess they are talking to hear themselves? UN needs to go!
The countries in the UN cannot even clean up their own homeland, nevermind the rest of the world!
They lack the authority or the ability to back it up.
And we ban the UN from the United States!!!
Sure they did. The 122 nations signing the ban don’t HAVE nuclear weapons or a way to get them. Dissolve the United Nations once and for all.
The UN needs to find another home. Most in it do not even like this country. How about an island somewhere with no fancy hotels, restaurants, and special privileges– police cannot hold them for anything– that building could house veterans or even a VA hospital with a great staff.1
You can’t ban$#%&!@*UN.
This is worthless,stop funding something has no authority for anything!
You can not trust the few over the U.N. ……. How dumb do they think people are.
