The UN was established as a forum of diplomacy but that goal was quickly corrupted and it has since been used as an "authority" for military interventionism by its members. Whether you look at the Korean War or the Gulf War the UN is responsible for war and war is not diplomacy.
As for getting rid of the military one must remember that the military simply executes the wars that politicians create. Before you get rid of the military you need to get rid of the politicians for they are the ones to blame for the wars.
