World Leaders meeting at the United Nations General Assembly.

Perhaps it is time for the United Nations to be adequately empowered and its mandate reviewed in order for it to be effective as a global policeman and dispute manager rather than bickering at the Assembly and making resolutions that members are not fully commited to implement. Leaders would serve the world community better by :  1). Proposing and agreeing on reforms to make the United Nations a truly democratic global institution.
        2). Establishing effective military and economic powers to enforce resolutions arrived at democratically.
At present the UN is regarded by a large number of nations as an instrument of America and its allies and this accounts for its weakness in resolving many a dispute.
