The UN is a fine thing in theory, but it lost all moral authority by treating dictators and democratic leaders in the same way. Also, it did not prevent Saddam from gassing the Kurds. It didn't prevent Bashar Assad from using chemical weapons. It didn't do anything to make North Korea close its gulags.
What the current 4T could accomplish is to reform the UN to make it more moral, like its Missionary founders wanted.
I don't see that as likely, because the first world is transitioning to a new version of itself, the second world is trying to be the first world of the immediate past, and the third world is still mired in chaos. That's not a recipe for general betterment.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
