If you look at the "UN Resolutions throughout history", you will see the first resolution ever passed, called "Fight the Axis of Evil.
This resolution is very vague, saying just to increase international military spending. Worse, however, is that it passed by a vote of 2 to 1. Not a ratio of 2 votes to 1, but 2 votes to 1 vote. Today, there are over 31,000 Nations who must abide by all resolutions of the UN, including this one. Whether anyone agrees with the resolution or not is less important than the fact that 31,000 must comply with a resolution passed with just 3 voters, without getting any say of thier own
If a proposal or eventually a resolution were ever to reach the UN concerning repealing or re-voting on this undemocratic resolution, what sort of response would it receive?
