Seems you need to study up on the difference between a UN peacekeeping force and a UN force authorised to take military action under the authority of a Chapter VII resolution of the UN Charter.

Thanks anyway for your complimentary plaudits.

Depends on what the UN force is authorised to do. A peacekeeping force has a different authority to a force authorised to degrade and destroy.

If the UN fails to act to authorise the use of force against Islamic state and those supporting or pledging allegiance to it then the UN runs the risk of becoming as irrelevant as the League of Nations did in failing to prevent World War II occurring.
