The UN Charter is the fundamental document governing the use of force in international relations. In essence it makes the threat or use of force to settle international disputes impermissible.

I'd like to ask a question about this. I guess if that is true then the threats of force between India and Pakistan a year or so ago were impermisable. This is just an example of a conflict I'm picking for illustration purposes. OK, let's say the threats of nuclear war India and Pakistan (not to mention their troops occasionally shooting at one another along the border) violated the UN charter. What happened as a result? Who did or is going to do anything about it?
