  What is a *world* United Nations Security Council?
  
  Is it a forum for defining best action to give security to peoples of the world, and then effecting that action using the services of the nations of the world in united action?
  
  Does the world United Nations Security Council have to wait for permission of
  some african congress,
  some arab/muslim aggregation,
  some rag-bag of south american nations,
  some affiliation of leftist revolutionary workers parties,
  some world aggregation of trade unions,
  etc,
  etc,
  before it can act to protect communities under attack?
  
  What has the world come to . . . . . . that we have become so timid that we allow the pressure groups of the world to run roughshod over the higher interest of protecting the peoples of the world. (This is NOT a question, it is a rhetotical statement of frustration).

  Is risible if not tragic, that some myopic people are ready to back any armed action against supposedly “independent” countries, that would surely cause a bigger conflict, in order to satisfy their lust for “action”.
  The problem is, that the same people tend not to be that “aggressive” against countries that using the “right of the most powerful” or greedy, cause hundreds of thousands of casualties all over the globe without a valid or legal reason to do so. They wouldn't comment on the atrocities committed by Israel against women and children, or the indiscriminate bombardment that the powers of the “West” inflicts on undefended civilians elsewhere.
  For these people, of course, everything is as clear as black and white. They surely agree with the policies of the “West” that, in order to make it simpler I'll put it this way': There are “GOOD” and “BAD” dictators, terrorists, heads of state of all sorts, countries, commentators etc. IT ONLY DEPENDS WHERE THEY ARE WITH US OR AGAINST US. Hypocrites!!!

  Yes, aedi, but this is the world we live in.
  
  The important thing is that when such a dictator (man or woman) starts actively killing his/her populations, for whatever reason, he/she is *held to a higher account*.
  
  We, the people of the world community, have failed many nation'populations since WWII :
  - the Russians, the cossacks, the Sudanese, the Chinese, the Cambodians, the Ruandans, ethe Ethiopians, the Guineans, the Congolese, the Ugandans, the Chadians, the Kenyans, the Zimbabweans, the Ivory Coastians, the Eritreians, the Burundians, the Togonese, the Nigerians, the Algerians, the Sierra Leonese, the Angolans, the Central African Republicians, the Liberians, the Botswanans, the Senegalese, the Guinea Bissauians, the Moroccans, the Mailians, the Mosambiquians, the South Africans, the Egyptians, the Colombians, the Venezuelans, the Brasilians, the Guatemalans, the Cubans, the Argentinians, the Chileans, the Nicaraguans, the El Salvadorians, the Peruvians, the Paraguayians, the Mexicans, the Chiapas, the North Koreans, the Afghanistanians, the Pakistanis, the Bangladeshis, the Baluchistanians, the Sindians, the Burmese, the Nepalese, the Indoneesians, the Indians, the Gujaratis, the Kashmiris, the Philippinians, the Sri Lankans, the Tibestians, the Azerbaijanis, the Tajikistanis, the Vietnamese, the Laotians, the East Tomorese, the Ingushetians, the Kosovans, the Croatians, the Chechnyans, the Serbians, the Bosnians, the Macedonians, the Georgians, the South Ossetians, the Northern Irish, the Dagestanis, the Crimeans, the Iraquis, the Yemanis, the 'palestinians', the jews, the Lebanese, the Iranians, the Turks, the Kurds, the Syrians, the Cypriots, etc, etc. (GenocideWatch 2010) . . . . . . and, in earlier times, the native races of all continents, rolled over time and time again by 'Progress'.
  
  Just try to find a common theme . . . . Good, bad, west-leaning, east-leaning? . . . . . . hypocrites?
  
  Now, is there no need to strengthen the United Nations?
