Calls are growing for the UN Security Council to be reformed after the US became the only member to use its veto power to block a Gaza ceasefire resolution, a move welcomed by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The UN chief says he will keep pushing for peace.

I used to think the same way. But with UN, at least someone "official" has a responsibility to "raise the voice". It is better than nothing, I guess.

And how is that going for us? The Middle East doing fine now?

Why do you think it would not be worse without the UN?

Do you think this is the only thing the UN does? Or that everything else it does does not matter?

I think they spend a lot of money and park in handicapped spots.

We got an edgy one here. No one get cut

Got an argument go ahead and make it.

Because your argument of taking up parking spaces is so worth debating lol

You've made the same point about parking twice in these comments now, got anything else to add

Honestly, I’m good with a few thousand people parking. Doesn’t sound like that big a problem. If the worst thing this organization produces is parked cars, I’m gonna vote for “no fucks given” on that issue.

The UK and the US voluntarily walked in to that. Multiple times. That has less than nothing to do with the UN.

I see. So the UN has had no impact on the region?

Just because it isn't 100% effective that doesn't mean it has no impact.

Right just one identical to not existing

You're welcome to move to Russia any time you want
