Although I think the only way to really get the UN to get everything done it wants to is for countries to give it some teeth. I mean, if some country goes counter to a resolution, what can anyone do?

That's exactly what happened during the Korean War. The Soviet Union kept on vetoing every single resolution related to North Korea. Only until they boycotted the UN was a resolution able to be passed.
