When was the Veto power abused in the united nations? I need one more example of when it was abused for a personal gain?

Having Veto power is bad enough. Once given & in hand, it is (fcuking) wrong to say "don't use it".
It is not used for personal gain. There are a hundred guys (& ladies perhaps) involved, in deciding to "use Veto" by any of the five. Who amongst the hundred or so would gain personally?
Don't say the President of USA sitting four hundred miles away or president of any of the four (UK, China, Russia or France). It is stunted thinking to say that.
Veto Decision is taken on National considerations with nations ganging up in groups involving other UN member-nations (Serbia, Jordan or Togo) as well, like street urchins.

Look at the five nations with veto power in the UN. It's always used for personal gain. It's always used in an abusive manner. And it's always wrong for those nations to use it.
