There are certain circumstances which sometimes call for the use of military force to prevent or to resolve major conflicts between two warring Countries.True “you don’t feed your enemies while you are in a war with them. You don’t provide electricity and fuel so they can continue to fight”. This was once said by an African head of State.
In war people die and if the WINNER takes ALL – No qualms.However, in a situation where the warring parties are neighbors, unless the winning side exterminates [an unlikely scenario] the losers there would be more wars. Losers will re-group with new and better strategies and come back, lose or win.
It is therefore imperative that some accommodation is taken into account. Some Give and Take is quite necessary.
You win some, Lose some! In case this approach brings peace – Go for it.
Role of United Nations
The question of United Nations is very complex. It was established in 1948 to, among other objectives, deter world wars thru dialogue, dispute resolution and where necessary military intervention.
However, the Laws under which UN operates do not give the body both power and legitimacy to intervene directly into two warring states unless invited by one or the two states and at the same time sanctioned by the Security Council.
As a last resort the UN body intervenes militarily once sanctioned by the Security Council.
Be that as it may, the UN body serves as conduit through which disputes are ventilated and thus acting as shock absorbers.
This gives parties a chance to have their claims reviewed by an independent third party.
In fact the current main objective of UN is prevention and resolution of conflicts. This was emphasised by Mr Ban Ki-moon, the UN Secretary-General, in a speech at a UN Security Council on Wdnesday April 16, 2008 when he urged UN and the African union (AU) to make prevention and resolution of conflicts their top priority.
If one were to decide between the existence of United Nations and no such a body,then obviously the existence of UN would be desirable.

It is amazing “Adam’s” offspring is still acting like Cain and Abel. The more his offspring advances in knowledge regarding technology the less they use common sense. I want the same thing my grandfather has to date (longevity – he turned 103 on April 5, 2008)
It has been written, according to Jesus; ““Put your sword back into its place. For all who take the sword will perish by the sword.”
In Central America “guns” were pseudo swords; since arriving, native people and fauna has practically been wiped OUT!
When I was a 7th grader (40 years ago) our social studies teacher told us the USA had enough nukes to destroy the world nine times.
At that age, even I knew it only takes “one time” to evaporate!
UN Military, be still; citizens of the region that wants out, rescue them and leave the rest to satisfy their essence.
Congratulations! Your grandfather turned 103 on
April 5, 2008 and yourself at 40, your genetic
endowment could push your age to exceed your
