Collapse of Syrian truce shows limits of U.N. diplomacy

Much bloodshed has been brought out due to an attack from the Syrian air force. In observance of an Islamic holiday, one of the most important ones, the U.N. asked for a truce that hoped to last only 4 days between the rebel forces and the Syrian troops, which never came through according to many missiles and bombings on both sides. This civil war has brought on a large death toll and is showing possibilities of bringing in other neighboring countries such as Turkey, Lebanon, and Jordan. This just proves how little effect the U.N. actually has on countries.
