I hate that people think that.. The UN are not pussies. There are forces within the UN that do great work at a horrible cost to themselves (usually just the humanitarian sectors, but also the peace keeping corps) However, because they cannot act without the security council's blessing, and the "super powers" have a veto, thier hands are usually tied. I dont know if YOU'RE calling them pussies, but the impression is out there. They also have to bear the burden of the failure of the Leauge of Nations partially as it was the forerunner to the UN and it failed horribly.
