If you're naïve enough to believe that the world is ready for a global organization that can enforce it's wishes on sovereign nations, maybe you should consider some of the idiocy that's come from the UN previously.

Ah yes, the UN. Comprised of bastions of integrity such as the UNRWA and which condemns israel more than every other country on the face of the earth combined while completely ignoring genocides in Africa and horrific human rights violations in every single arab country. Unsurprising given that the UN bodies which most frequently condemn Israel are generally dominated BY those same arab countries, who are more than happy to claim the jews murder children and use their blood to make matza on official UN record.

Seriously? You're seriously going to cite a random yahoo answers style webpage which links to a website that's openly violently antisemitic??

Or alternatively I just cited a provable historical fact about the 61st assembly of the UN.

Might want to be careful about citing the United Nations. We're talking about an organization that will condemn Israel 22 times in a single year but can't be bothered to take time out of their schedule to do something about the african genocides.

what i got, is that

from what i understand, they've been condemning israel for like, 2 decades with very little to show for it, and their human rights council is partially composed of hypocrisy. ... they had a moment of silence for kim jong-il after his passing... wtf?

The UN is so ridiculously and blatantly anti-Israel that they sanctioned israel 22 times in a single year but completely ignored genocide in Africa. Top level UN officials have repeatedly admitted the UN is biased, and a majority of the "sanctions" and "statistics" put out are directly from arab nations and representatives within the UN.

I'm sorry, but that's baloney. The U.S. is not the only nation that owes past dues, and other nations have neglected to pay for long enough that they've lost their right to vote. The U.S. is also not the only nation with veto power, and as the link from the other respondent shows, these other nations with veto power have often been the (successful) target of bribery.
