    Ah yes the UN stopped mattering the minute it started reporting on Israel’s horrendous human rights violation. Suddenly they don’t matter as a body. I suppose every human rights organization that has been documenting Israeli crimes is also not good enough?

      The UN has never really mattered in any practical political sense. They do great humanitarian work, though, and are a major contributor to the success of developing nations.

      They can’t prevent wars or stop atrocities though. They need NATO for that, generally.
