Since the United Nations is mostly a political organization where world leaders come together and discuss their differences and make friends, it appears there is a problem with corruption. The human species is inherently corrupt and so often those who rise to the top of their political societies are the most corrupt in their group and this poses a problem, especially when the most corrupt humans on the entire planet all come together in collusion. Additionally the United Nations has inherent limits on keeping peace and as we have seen they definitely have limits on their ability to maintain integrity on the war on international terrorism. The system is viable, however it has evolved into organization, which is quite ineffective in fighting the war on terror. If the United Nations and their Security Council cannot come together in consensus to reprimand, sanction or use force to stop nation states, which sponsor international terrorism, then it has shunned its responsibilities to mankind. This of course is unacceptable because nation states that sponsor international terrorism are able to get hold of the advanced weapons and nuclear bombs, which could potentially kill millions of people in one international terrorist act. Failure of the Security Council of the United Nations to do the right thing now in the present period will have implications for many future generations. If the United Nations Security Council cannot come together in this common cause to fight the war on terrorism and if they continue to fail in their responsibilities to protect innocent human life then the obvious question comes; What good are vague anyway? Consider this in 2006. |
