The country that has long been known to abuse its powers and privileges in the United Nations is now leading a campaign to reform the same organization. While U.N. reforms are welcomed, if not demanded, by many of its member states, there is little reason to believe the recent U.S. crusade is actually genuine.
Rather, it seems a clear attempt to stifle any semblance of democracy in the world's leading international institution.
Most American politicians actually despise the U.N.. While the Security Council is directed or tamed by the U.S. veto (often to shield the United States and its close ally Israel from any criticism), other U.N. bodies are not as easily intimidated.
