Originally designed to institutionalize the military alliance that emerged as victors in World War II, the U.N. has shown no inclination to reform itself. It's governing [[Security Council]] is controlled by the victorious powers of 1945 and bares scant resemblance to the demographic changes of the 21st century. For example, (in the pre-[[Brexit]] era) the [[European Union]] had two votes, while [[India]] and the [[Muslim]] world remain unrepresented. Its supposed democratic underpinnings take no account of cultural differences; [[Shariah law]] for example, forbids the two billion Muslims of the planet from forging alliances with non-believers or participating in legislative councils. In the [[Koran]]ic system, all law comes from [[Allah]], and man made law, such as the United Nations Charter, is strictly forbidden. | Originally designed to institutionalize the military alliance that emerged as victors in World War II, the U.N. has shown no inclination to reform itself.
