It's a common mistake to believe that UNSC actions depend on a majority vote,

Necessary but not sufficient are the operative words.

It's necessary to have a UNSC majority but not sufficient. Sufficient means no vetoes as well. Both conditions need to be present. Korea is the classic example in that the Soviet delegation didn't exercise its veto right.

Like it or not that is the way the UNSC works(or doesn't).
