Indeed it is, and if all nations are to be free from poverty and international war, all nations will need to submit to rule of international law (just as citizens must submit to national law).
....
A UNSC whose members were bound by a majority vote of the UNGA and UNSC, just as the law of a nation is decided by majority vote in the supreme court.
......
The UNSC has 99% of the world's military force, which if deployed by a majority UNSC vote, is obviously irresistible. Hence the UNSC could guarantee security for all nations, enabling a general disarmament.
....
Wrong, as addressed above, it would be a general disarmament among nations who would only need to maintain police forces for internal security, not militaries for external security.
....
The US is hoping to provoke war in China, to prevent China's economy from growing bigger than the US.
Indeed if I were Xi, I would be pressing to get rid of the veto in the UNSC, because the US is obviously hell-bent on making Taiwan a state of the US, armed to the teeth against the mainland, as part of its China containment policy.
Laughable idiocy. You live in a 5 year old's naive fantasy toy world, parrot.
The usual...let's read on.
Quote:Who is going to finance the militaries of 5 powers of the UNSC? Those 5 countries or the whole world? How will costs be shared?
The five countries plus Japan and Germany rounding out the 7 most powerful/richest economies in the world - plus Russia's nuclear arsenal (indeed the UNSC should be enlarged with membership of these two).
Quote: What happens if someone outside of the 5 powers wants to be a soldier or marine or airmen? Excluded?
Occupations come and go all the time.
How about a career in the national civilian police force instead?
Quote:Who will command them?
Similar to any coalition command.
Quote:Who will decide deployment - the 5 or all UN members?
The 5 (or better, seven as noted above), carrying out the voted policy (the "voice"!) of the UNGA, and the UNSC members (without veto).
Quote: What happens if they disagree (as now)? Would all countries, from Iran to Pakistan, North Korea to Venezuela submit?
All nations are presently signed up to the UN Charter, the problem is the UNSC can't guarantee security for any one nation. If the UNSC could guarantee
external security, why would you not submit to international law?
Quote:What happens about countries internally monstering their own people, from China to Iran?
The
general disarmament I referred to would deprive nations of the military means to "monster their own people", like Myanmar.
Where other countries' governments depart from the principles of the UNUDHR, the civilian police force would be quickly overwhelmed by a UN military contingent.
Eg in Afghanistan and Iran, where in fact half the population (ie female) IS calling for UN intervention into their rogue governments.
Note: re-education camps in Xinjiang camps do NOT violate the UNUDHR, that's just opportunistic Western ideology/propaganda; the US is only too willing to bomb Muslims when it sees fit, China prefers reeducation of its own fundamentalist separatist terrorists.
Conclusion: it's time...in the age of MAD - to outlaw war as a means of dispute settlement between nations.
"Laughable, pre-adolescent jumbled fantasy bollocks" is correct.
