The UN is one big joke caused more problems than good! should be disbanded for what it is worth.

But in 1945 the world was a different place, the whole of Europe was decimated, I was born in 1953 in Liverpool UK, I remember my school history lessons, and ration cards, and being hungry and cold in winter.
At the time the allies tried to put some well meaning plan together to stop future conflict, it actually started in 1941 and signed in 1945, but the world was a simpler place to be than now, there were 2 conferences one at Dumbarton Oaks, a mansion in America, and the Yalta Conference in the Crimea.
But they had to do something to try bring or promise a peace, mainly peace of mind for decimated countries, later conflicts I dont think were even in the minds of the signatories back then.
