In the UN's case it was specifically designed without balls, these have
to be added by the member nations in the form of peace-keeping etc.
forces. So the problem with the UN is a collective failure of all the
member nations, including the US, to actually make something more than
words of it's resolutions.
As for the EU what makes you think it's laws aren't enforced? When a
member state does something against an EU law it uses legal
means/financial penalties to enforce the law, not force of arms.
Probably similar to if a US state were to pass an unconstitutional law -
the US govt. wouldn't send in the military, would they?
Why some in the US hate the EU so much I don't know, but I'd guess it
has something to do with disliking anyone who could potentially
challenge the US as the world's *only* superpower - whether it be a
united Europe, China, or Australia armed with nuclear powered Kangaroos
and sharks with laser beams :) (we could do it you know - don't try and
stop us!)
enough OT politics anyway, I'm getting back to work..
