Right firstly the UN isnt some "out there" organization. America is part of the UN, its not like they are going to this weird group of people that judge the US. The UN is all the constituent members ie the countries that make up the UN, of which America is one. And in fact the biggest supporter of the UN according to your earlier post stating they contribute the most.
In terms of breaking a contract, there is no other party with the UN charter. The UN charter was written by the united states and other member countries. Its not these guys and those guys, you wrote it, we wrote it.
The UN condemned Iraq but it didnt authorize the use of force. THis was the correct choice. The UN did the right thing and had the US + UK followed the UN the war would not have happened. America + UK ignored the UN and fought a war illegally under the UN charter.
You can square it however you like, america + UK made lots of statements and was wrong.
If America and the UK had stuck to the UN process, we would not be in this mess.
So yes the UN isnt that effective. Probably because no one sticks to their own contracts.
