In light of Palestine's bid to gain UN membership, I wondered earlier today: why should UN membership be a matter only for Security Council approval? Or, at minimum, shouldn't the "Big Five" not be allowed their automatic vetoes on membership applications?
That way, the U.S. couldn't block Palestine, while at the same time, China couldn't block Taiwan.
