The US was never a member nation of the League of Nations.[/SIZE]

The inability of the League of Nations to function allowed member nations of the League of Nations to demand reparation payments from Germany that were totally unrealistic - these demands and attempts to force Germany to pay led to worldwide depression which eventually allowed Hitler to take over the German government and Hitler figured out how you end depression - War

The inability of the UN to control anything could lead to the same result.
