The United Nations Organization (UN) website starts with an optimistic punch line…United Nations, We the Peoples….A stronger UN for a better world. It was this vision for a better world after the catastrophes of two world wars which gave birth first to the League of Nations and ultimately to The United Nations Organization. However the League of Nations founded at the end of World War 1 in an attempt to eliminate war and violence had been defunct for many years, and had been in no position to oppose the approaching tragedy of the World war 2nd. This failure on the part of League was that it was never able to bring all the great powers into its Permanent Council to take responsibility for world peace. The United States of America, despite the fact that the whole project had been initiated by President Wilson, never became a member. Such was the failure that world witnessed another war which was even more deadly and haunting than the first one.
