The United Nations faces major challenges.
1) A divided international community. 2) The divisions in the UN Security Council which must approve its missions. The Security Council grants each of the Council's 5 permanent members veto power. This provision means it is exceedingly difficult to prevent powerful states from using force when it sees fit. Of course much more needs to be done to end the suffering in the Middle East. But the UN is part of the solution. Not part of the problem. The UN peace keeping operatives have grown dramatically. At the end of the Cold War in the early 1900s there were 11,000 UN peace keepers. By 2014 there were 130,000 in 16 far flung peace keeping operations. Today 87,000 men and women serve in 12 conflict areas in Africa, Asia, and the Middle East. We need to acknowledge that over the past 75 years the UN has sent out more than 2 million peace keepers to help countries move away from conflict with some success - that would not have happened if the UN did not exist. Today it continues to focus on new challenges in the hotspots where UN peace keeping has operatives including facing very violent environments, fake news campaigns and a divided world population. The UN's ultimate goal is restoring stable governments. It has lost many operatives in trying to achieve their goals. That should be acknowledged. It's not a perfect organization - but the world would be a lesser place without it. Posted by Foxy, Wednesday, 17 January 2024 9:54:47 AM

If Donald Trump regains the US Presidency the UN, along with other dictatorial rogues in countries such as China and the Islamosphere might need to change their ways. Mr. Trump is no fan of the UN because it doesn't live up to its potential.
Last time he was President, he pulled the US out of the HRC for the joke it was. He accused the UN of causing problems, not solving them. He said that they were a waste of money, and a club for people to get together and have a good time. Mr. Trump also rejects globalisation, stating that America will be governed by Americans, not the UN He also takes exception to the UN's “chronic bias” against Israel. The free world, still (just - under but not because of its current President) led by the United States of America, was much calmer and safer when the likes of Ronald Reagan and Donald Trump were at the wheel. Australia, never weaker and more divided, thanks to Albanese, should pray for a Trump presidency, even if it is just to see off the shitehawks in the not-so uniting United Nations.

'Twitter may contain some false stories'
- Damn... they got me, the above tweet isn't real, it was satire. Shame, it felt good seeing someone tell Klaus Schwab and all the elites what many of us are thinking... - Hopefully some justice will be done with those maniacs. Looks like Trumps in with a decent chance. If Democrats argue he was challenging the election when he knew there was no wrongdoing... - Well there was wrongdoing when the FBI withheld information about the Hunter Biden laptop, studies have shown if the public had known it would've been enough to win closely contested states and the election. As for charges of sexual assault, NY changed the laws regarding statute of limitations specifically so Trump could be charged. The charges and witch hunt against Trump going all the way back before 2016 are political in nature, more recently for the purposes of preventing Trump from running in 2024. I can't see Biden beating Trump in any debate. I've heard the black vote is apparently leaning towards Trump even though they don't really like him that much. They know the Democrats haven't had their best interests and they really want to punish them. Posted by Armchair Critic, Wednesday, 17 January 2024 4:50:42 PM

"The UN openly admits that the woman has clearly breached its standards of conduct, "
The UN has standards of conduct? Well there's your first mistake! Posted by mhaze, Thursday, 18 January 2024 11:11:22 AM

40 beheaded babies.
- 'The boy who cried wolf.'
(Those lies raised USD$50 million btw)
Israel was caught out selling sensational lies to justify its Oct 7 response.
And somehow it expects others to believe more sensational stories without any evidence?
Why is it we doubt Brittany Higgins story?
- Because there's not enough evidence to prove it.
I'm not saying bad things didn't happen by Palestinians on Oct 7.
But lets face facts here, Hamas game plan wasn't a killing spree, it was a carefully planned military raid on the IDF and they wanted hostages to trade for their own.
There's plently of testimony from Israelis themselves that it was the IDF that killed civilians.

Israel was just capitalising on the events of the day with a media narrative that would save itself the embarrassment of what actually happened, and to use the situation as the biggest opportunity its ever had to take more land.
http://twitter.com/Partisangirl/status/1746732870809567501
The IDF admits to being ordered to commit ethnic cleansing. This better be shown at The Hague
Everything the Palestinians are accused of the Israelis are also guilty of:

ttbn "I'm talking about the appalling lack of accountability of the United Nations and its gangsters."
What is she accountable for if there's no evidence?
What do you want - another person fired at the insistence of the Israel lobby?
To defend the genocidal Israelis?
- And why don't you ever provide a link for context when opening a thread?
My forefathers have been here since the 1810's or earlier and I have a tiny bit of indigenous in me.
Somehow in your world if I don't support Israel I'm un-Australian.
You probably watch too much Sky News.
Twitter may contain some false stories, but the corporate media is the mushroom news.
You'll never even get to hear half the story on any issue, because they don't report any of the real details.
