I feel the UN has become worthless& has no power& place in the new world order.The concept of world Goverment (like EU) should be formed, by which there will be a more organised and powerful body will be inplace to deal with the issues in a much critical & effective way.

Look I hope not and I've thought about this a lot. The EU is more like the UN than people realise, everything must be done by concensus of Nations. The biggest problem with the UN today over the Israel/Lebanon thing for instance was that a resolution condemning Israeli action was defeated by a single Veto, that of the USA. I was watching proceedings at the UN on BBC World about 16-20 hrs ago and saw it all happen. At least the UN provides a forum where the sovereignty of nations and people is the paramount principle. Where it falls down is the fixed membership of the Security Council in a handful of nations, mainly the big ones (but not all of them). A certain amount of restructuring is necessary to reduce the power of former superpowers, but read the founding documents, especially the Declaration of Human Rights 1948, they are brilliant. It may not be perfect but no system is, and it provides the best chance for equitable international co-operation, without the need to install yet another power hungry bunch of politicians which must inevitably result from the installation of World Government. Diplomacy is way better than Political action in all circumstances. Just my opinion, thanks for the opportunity.

I agree that the UN is a worthless and corrupt organization that needs to be disbanded. However a "world government" is not the way to go. I do not want a tin pot dictator to be able to tell America what it can or cannot do. We have a constitution that should not be subject to ANY world body. The UN has plans to "disarm people". This would run counter to the constitution that has the right to bear arms. In the federal papers there are statements that the right to bear arms is an inherent protection to prevent tyranny. I agree with my constitution and feel it should never be subject to any world body.

I agree! The world would be so much easier to live in. I like the idea of the UN, but we need more power from the right kind of people. If we had people like Nelson Mandela, and each Country has there own voice in what is happening in the world, we wouldn't need to spend so much money on military and war, and we can help the countries and people in need. We spend heaps more on war then love. It's just not right!! Each country should keep their own laws, as long as it is within the world view. Australians don't have guns, we don't need them. We feel safer without them.
Disarm the world, and feed our children!!

The Arabs League of Nations have been trying to do that for a long time, but the UN, USA, USSR, EU etc. Don't like the idea.

I disagree. I would prefer to have absolute global power myself. Things would get fixed pretty pronto then. Plus I would get to have a really big office with one of those phones that has lots of buttons on it.
