You have to decide if you believe there should be international law or not

The Nuremberg trials laid out a very simple idea: the supreme international crime is launching a war of aggression

The UN security council must be rebuilt from the ground up

UN must be wrestled from US control, it must not be allowed to use it as just another weapon, and we must work towards an actual system of international law, one where we are actually equal. the other option is global war

@ekis

the UN does need to be rebuilt regardless of any other factors

the security council for example:

france and uk both having seats is a colonial era hangover. there should be one EU seat

russia inherited theirs from the USSR, this wasn't even legal. russia simply should not have a seat

india should have one

brazil should have one

nigeria or south africa should have one

australia or indonesia should have one

egypt or saudi arabia should have one

china and usa as usual

@benroyce @ekis One little niggling detail, the UK is not part of the EU. Which also means it has an outsize vote to other European countries around it if the EU is forced to vote as a block.

@tankgrrl I read Ben's post to mean that the UK doesn't need / deserve a seat.

@xinit @benroyce @ekis So does that mean that North America gets consolidated into a block as well?

I don't get why one founding member gets their vote taken away while another does not. If we're just building a power block then that doesn't seem very united.

@tankgrrl Only Canada and Mexico get seats I think I could entertain that.

Don't get me wrong, I think the membership makes absolutely no sense at all. But there is no 'zone' mechanism currently.

i mean our whole conversation is complete blue sky geek out

the truth is the UN will creak along until some horrible world cataclysm. then the world will find the will to replace it

i suggest the name "league of nations"

@benroyce I favour "The Justice League"

Superman is the only one who can fix this shit.

I am all for giving the boy scout alien control everything. I mean he did get rid of all the nuclear missiles that one time.

Plus, that whole reversing time thing. I think we could use an undo function.

Surely you're not suggesting an egalitarian organization where anyone is welcome and all have an equal vote and one country doesn't run/ruin the whole show? 😄

The UN minus the "security" council could be useful.
