That does not mean that at all.

What do you do about secret weapons programs? The IAEA has already proved to be incompetent in monitoring. You yourself above cite Putin as a possible problem, what will convince Russia to give up their bombs? The structure itself of the United Nations prevents this from ever occurring. The big 5, if you will, of nuclear powers are the 5 members of the Security Council, who all possess the veto.

A world government does not reduce the amount of famine, war, or crime. Look at it on a local level, warring factions in Africa are suddenly going to put down their weapons simply because there is a world government? I think not. If you make a world government it simply means the world is a single state, but even within states we see wars and famine.

What would this "world government" look like in your mind? A world government simply means that what India and China decide is what goes, who on Earth do you think is going to buy into that?
