    Your question makes it sound as if at one point the UN served a useful purpose.

    It does beg the question of whether their methods work... their lack of progress in places like North Korea is frustrating.

    Perhaps every time there is a breach of UN protocol, they should swap the wine and cheese for bread and water ... as an inspiration to succeed!
