In the final segment (Part 4 of 4) of Paul Jay's interview with Vijay Prashad on Reality Asserts Itself, the subject is the undermining of international law and military interventions in the name of human rights.

  1. The UN’s current form is a joke! Although not so much for the countries that are singled out & attacked by the UN Security Council’s permanent members and their satellites.

    Either the UN goes through reform and removes the permanent member status including it's veto to allow moral guiding principals & international law to be observed through a council elected by the general assembly or we will continue down the path of total destruction. What needs to happen right now is for a number of countries to break away & form their own United Nations if things do not change…
