I would certainly hope so... In my experience (mostly gained from sitting on the couch and popular media outlets), the UN is a pure "after the fact" organization - they do not defend, they "peace keep", and in the places they are most-likely deployed, they are confined to acting in a very quaint and proper manner, much to the delight of their opponents...
I don't know, maybe I've seen too many films about Rhawanda (sp?) in the past year to have a favorable opinion of their mission.
