UN as Peace Force Option After Bernadotte Assassination
The Nation Today surveys the UN’s failure to form a world police force to back peace in Palestine. It notes Swedish Count Folke Bernadotte’s assassination by the Stern gang and debates whether a UN armed force, even a small guard, could have prevented violence. It explains the stalled military committee since 1946 and the rift among big powers over contributions, with Trygve Lie proposing a 1,000 to 5,000 strong guard army as a temporary measure.
