VI. CONCLUSION
Article 106 of the United Nations Charter began as an interim measure, designed to ensure that the Allies might continue to fight the Second World War and secure the post-war peace during the time it took to make the new Organization fully operational. Although the Organization never quite came into operation as expected, and Article 106 thereby remains in effect, the United Nations has not yet called upon Article 106 to justify any measure. Article 106’s disappearance today would make little to no difference to the current arrangement. Its continued presence and validity, however, does hold the potential of aiding the Five Powers in the case that they unanimously agree yet fail to command a requisite majority in the Security Council.

It sounds to me that the Great Powers - purely potentially - may find article 106 useful - in the unlikely event if they find themselves a) united - and b) would like together to overrule the majority of other Security Council members.

Or, maybe they simply never got around to get rid of it.

My main interest in the post was about large numbers of people getting caught up in dangerous hyper-ideas. Nazism was one. “One World” globalism may become one.
