Which proposal? The one already on the table (Equality For All) or an upcomming proposal?

Interesting idea. If we formed a strike force, then we would have a military to protect UN members from attack by other nations and to bring down nations whose tyranny has gone too far. I'm still waiting for my membership to the UN, but I can already see the effects of a strike force. Also, I'm sure some of my fellow former hobo's would be glad to be part of such an honorable task. And they are all street-smart. :twisted: .

First off, how would the UN run this! No one would agree on who would control and how to fund this strike force!

Second, how do you define tyranny? Communist nations say capitalists, monarchs, and fascists are tyrants, fascists say communists, republics say monarchs, fascists and communists, and so on...

Thirdly how would we decide to intervene in conflicts?
Note: a number of countries are pacifists and have no military.

And lastly, it would require massive game modification to add a “UN Army” something Max Berry won't do to suit your whims.
