The UN should serve as the moral conscious of the world. Instead, it has become nothing but an amplifying voice for the terrorists and their nation sponsors.
The towel should not be thrown in on the UN. There is great potential in the UN becoming what it should have always been – a place for the voices of peace, reconciliation, and promotion of morals that the vast majority of the world can agree on. The issue is that the idea of one country – one vote creates an absurd situation wherein every tiny little country that may very well be a ruthless dictatorship receives an inordinate amount of time and power to express itself to the world via its UN rep.
In today’s day and age, it is much easier to spread ideas of truth to the world via the viral power of the media. A powerful message that is spoken in the UN has great weight and if properly transmitted with powerful audio and video packaging, can reach millions in a matter of days. The UN should become a weekly transmitter of morals via something like a UN highlights platform that would bring the entire world together on some level with a common goal that would sideline the haters and terrorists.
How can this happen when China and Russia wield so much power in the UN via the Security Council? They are part of the problem with the spread of evil and terrorism in the world. The first step is to tackle this one challenge. If all of the members of the Security Council understand that it is in their self-interest to do this in order to promote stability in their own countries, they may be convinced to give it a go. Yes, it is a longshot. But the alternative of continuing the status quo is a pathetic alternative.
But this requires much focus and determination to make a fundamental change inside of the UN body.
