Okay, I'll put on a Washington Hat and tell you that we support the UN because it provides a forum for dialogue. It also provides a forum for condemnation of those that do things we don't like; and allows us to build colitions of like minded nations. Oh yes, and it serves as another arm of our diplomatic mission. Hat off now
You are right, they are toothless because they have no means to enforce their resolutions. Their condemnations are about as powerful as a flea. And no one really cares if they are condemned by the UN.. I supect we still fund it because it is easier to do that than to stop. Sad, isn't it?
