>I really don't know. It is a pity that the UN doesn't have the power to enforce resolutions, and, of course, the resolutions are supposed to be enforced.
All it takes is one of the permanent members to veto any action. The UN is the only "democratic" entity where majority votes do not pass. I would settle for two-thirds majority instead of a simple majority requirement to pass resolutions.
