I think the main obstacle in UN's way to work efficiently is that its controlled mainly by US.Now,before tagging me anti-america (which most of the people do after reading such sentence),I would like you to listen to me a little.:)) e.g
US pays a major portion for its expenses.It can't stand and live without US assistance which makes it a lot dependent on US.So when anything,any decision goes against the interest of US,it vetoes that decision.As an example,I think the Palestine issue is enough for us to get this point.

Might is right.To relate this saying to the UN,you know every decision will be accepted if it has some force on its back.In International affairs that force is present in the form of military.Now the UN does not have any army of its own so it cannot implement its decision and its decision are left to the free will of the advanced,developed and powerful nations.

As far as UN's failure is concerned, if we see that behind the UN the super power USA has an effective impact in order to make any decision. If we see in past all things were firstly decided and then the things are mentioned in UN for international documentation. It would not be false to say that US is the power which is running the UN because the most of financial assistance are provided by US. Besides, before UN the US was also had super authority over the world. But, after getting source of UN the USA has become more power full. As far as UN's working goal is concerned, no doubt that UN has been working effectively in certain sphere, such as in Health sector, financial assistance, and other social programmings are the best works which have been done by UN. But, the main and major issue is peace that is the main motto of UN's organization. As a matter of fact, it can be seen that the UN has not been doing any affective work in order to make the world peaceful owing to hurdle of US veto power. It would not be false to say that the US has been protecting her self interest by doing veto. So, with the sum up it can be said that the US is the hurdle on the of UN.

So far my knowdledge is concerned, the UN is a failed entity owing to the following
Factors.
1. It is financialy vulnerable. It has to rely on the contributions of member countries.
USA, being its major financial arm, exploit her serve its own interests.
2. Divergence of interests between great powers paraylises her i.e it has
been badly failed in sorting out recent syerian crisis where the question
comes of " Clash of interests" between Russia and anti Russan block.
3. It lacks the excutive machinery to implement its decisions. its decisions
has remained unimpemented. Big countries often tends to avoid her decisions.
Its various treaties such as on human rights, environment etc. has been ridicued
and restrained by powerful countries.
3. Owing to its flawed charter,which was designed to serve the interests of big countries, it has been hailed as a failed entity. Quite often its decisions,owing to its biases
beaucracy, are delayed and designed to serve the interests of powerful countries.

To my mind UNO is just rubber stampt of veto powers and specially USA.. well, there are number of issues in which uno is badly failed but the main inefficiency lies in fulfillment of its prime objective... its prime objective is to bring peace in all over world but a number of issues in history and present burning peace issues shows that uno is failed entity. palestine issue, kashmir issue, afghanistan war etc are main evidences.
