Mintogrubb loves to romanticize the British Empire, so I enjoy pointing out what the British Empire actually did. I did address his question about the UN, and there's no means to address it beyond creating a separate UN Military from all countries of the world in origin, beyond all in ideology and morality, able to strike with full military power and end wars of aggression.
The UN as a big talking grandstanding place is a place where the USA secures "international co-operation" to secure Kuwaiti Oil and fix our fuck-ups on the 38th Parallel and where Khrushchev bangs his shoe. That doesn't help anything except providing fodder for Jay Leno.
