For many years, the United Nations Security Council has been almost powerless to deal with international conflict. I believe this is mostly due to the fact that it takes only one nation to veto the desires of all the other council members.
Is it not time, to modify the UN Charter so that decisions can be made by concensus rather than being killed by a single veto? IMHO no one nation should be able to overrule the will of the majority; especially when such vetos usually are blatantly in the self interests of the party wielding them. In effect, one nation can impose it's will over all the others. This is blatantly unfair!
