WHY UN?

Submitted by ub on

The United Nations is an intergovernmental organization to promote international co-operation,but with more inaction than its worth. As a replacement for the equally ineffective League of Nations, the organization was established on 24 October 1945. UN is also a prefix meaning “not,”which is freely used as a formative, giving negative or opposite force in adjectives and their derivative adverbs and nouns.

Why NOT pull the plug and prevent a slow painful death?
