How far UN has been able to secure it's very objective of saving the upcoming generations from the scrouge of war?

UN has not been able to stop any major war, or it has failed to maintain peace in the world. Kashmir, Phalistine, East Taimoor, Afghanistan, and Iraq are the major examples of such failure of UN. This failure of UN is actually the result of it's major weakness, which is the 'veto' right. Veto power of particular countries have made these countries superior or more powerful than UN. this right is the major cause of disturbed balance of power. And in my opinion UN will remain weak till this veto power stays in the charter of UN. in order to make UN an effective organization, it's crucial to make it neutral first.

Actually UNO is a museum of dead resolutions.

UNO didnt do any thing important to stop war/s. Certainly, its major reason is 'VETO power.' Actualy, the affairs of UNO are being managed/funded/organized by giants, who do not wish to keep peace in glope. . . .

Bu UN has stopped the third world war. That is a fact, we must admit that. But the current scenerio is quite miserable. UN need to be streghened.

UN has to some extent proved that "Nuclear Weapons are 'not only a great peril, but a great hope'" because it was formed after heroshima, Nagasaki disasters and there was no nuclear attack on civilians till now.

Dear, i think the third world war is in progress. It's not a sort of war to be fought with weapons, but it's economic in nature. Some specific countries are having the hold of most of the economic resources, and they are in constant plodding to have the access of all the economic resources of the world. And this war is being financed by IMF and WOrld bank, and is planned by WTO with the title of Globalization. Globalization, in it's origin is not an adverse thing at all, but the way it is effecting the poor and developing countries is really a strrugle for economic imperialism.

UN emerged to save the world from war in 1945 era but it need to be pragmatic in the present era too because it's need is still alive. Still the world need it more than they needed it in 1945.

Dear Fellows very interesting discussion here so i come up with some ideas to throw light on a basic flaw Y U.N.O lags behind its objectives. I think need is to make reforms not to eliminate the need of UNO Cause.I think so called World Power is using U.N.O as a Puppet.There is strong need to realize the world that "Might is Not always Right".If USA is superior in Warhead balance,it doesn't mean that we can see the world from US eyes only. Actually U.N.O has format to control unnecessary Wars.But problem is its Elite panel of Members specially America on the Top interrupts its policies structure.Attack on Iraq was Veto By Security Council permanent Member FRance,but America totally ignored this Veto.So need is to make some ammendments to follow U.N.O set of procedures not its members self interest procedures. To reach Peace objectives of U.N.O need is to implement its Set of procedures properly without any bias and Equality should be the root of any Dialogue.
