A New United Nations Organization Is Needed

The United Nations was initiated to fit the whims of the victors and to serve the interests of the prominent five members: the United States, Britain, France, the Soviet Union ( Russian Federation now), and China; these states have the absolute power of veto to serve its interests. The resolutions of the General Assembly are not binding; they are void and have no effect.
We have witnessed the Security’s incapacity many times. For example, the failure to prevent the war and destruction in Iraq, Libya, and especially in Palestine, and elsewhere in the World.
The hostile position of the United States by using the power of Veto for a ceasefire and war of genocide caused more civilians to lose their lives due to the lack of medicine, water, and food in Gaza.
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. The UN chief says he will keep pushing for peace.
Biden ignored the cries of the American people for an immediate ceasefire. Instead, he opened the US arsenal to Netanyahu to kill and murder innocent civilians, mostly children.
We hope for the people of the World to unite and force a new reform, or amendment, on the United Nations to represent the people to foster peace and harmony in the World.
The General Assembly of the United Nations must be reformed and have the power, and its resolutions must be binding; otherwise, there is no purpose for having the United Nations, and the World would become a jungle as is. The Security Council does not represent us; it was designed to serve Imperialist power and drives.
