Nothing in the present Charter shall impair the inherent right of individual or collective self-defence if an armed attack occurs against a Member of the United Nations, until the Security Council has taken measures necessary to maintain international peace and security.

Ah, so now we know that the drafters of the UN charter used the phrase "inherent." And those drafters are now to be the source for deciding philosophical claims.
