Falsehood and intimidation have become normalized in U.N. procedures

Evidence

Moynihan’s policy, carried through logically, might have injected some reality into the debates of the United Nations and given it a positive role in interna­ tional politics. But this did not happen. Instead, the corruption of the United Nations has continued and has been greatly worsened by the normalization of falsehood and intimidation, now essential features of the procedures of the United Nations as of the majority of the regimes which constitute its membership. — Bernard Lewis, From Babel to Dragomans, 1338
