The UN has never been able to do what it was originally designed to do in many areas. The only real success it has had is much along the lines of success that the Red Cross has at times. It is successful in responding to shortages and natural disasters - in other roles it, like the Red Cross has been a dismal failure. The unwillingness or inability of nations to "get along" will always prevent the UN from being a peacekeeper or enforcer of international law.
The UN idea should be taken back to the drawing board. Perhaps a total redesign might turn it into an organization with value. For this to happen all nations would have to be equal with no one having veto power - this simply ain't ever gonna' happen!
