| There is a SOP now. The member states vote on putting peacekeeping forces in place. A reserve force is possible IMO. I know there are many people around the globe that do not see themselves as nationalists of any country and would enlist. I for one see myself as a global citizen first and foremost. There are many NGOs: Doctors without borders, Reporters without borders, Red Cross, Peace Corps etc...I think it would erradicate a lot of needless bloodshed around the globe. With the ICC, Interpol and other similar structured agencies, immense standing armies can be eliminated by most nations allowing them to invest the money into their infrastructure and citizenry. Not perfect but a hell of a lot better than the current state of affairs. |
