Hold on, I gotta wipe the tears away from laughing at this question. The UN is a toothless group of Oil-For-Food kickback beneficiaries. They have been useless for probably 40 years. It's a complete waste of space in NY. They could put up a nice McDonald's or Quizno's. It would be far more productive.

So many great things the UN did like stopping the Rwanda genocide,stopping the Iraqi war,stopping the Israeli illegal occupation of Palestine and many more...Oh,wait,this is what they were supposed to do,but they can't do it...Unfortunately UN has no power to stop any war...Sure the idea of UN is great:a world without wars ,where everything could be solved through diplomacy...but as long as there are going to be countries who believe they have more rights then the others and believe they are above any human law,it's not going to work...And UN has no power to force those countries to apply international law...Maybe in the future UN will be allowed to do the things it was created for,but right now ,unfortunately,it's just another political tool for some countries...

You can't prove a negative. We don't know that there's been less war due to the UN. What we do know is that the US contributes the largest sum of money to the UN of all the nations that are members and the UN has outlived it's usefulness because it's votes and opinions are largely ignored.
