United Nations a threat to Constitution
By JOHN RODGERS
Saturday, October 28
"The United Nations is a group of unelected bureaucrats responsible to no one except those who have appointed them. From September 1999 through the present, U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan has delivered a series of addresses openly calling for an end to national sovereignty, the creation of world law under a global government, and the unrestricted ability of the United Nations to intervene in the internal affairs of any nation. Previously, the U.N. had called for the imposition of several types of world taxation, a world central bank and a socialist-style redistribution of wealth.
There is a bill called the U.N. Reform Act in the Senate. As is often the case, dangerous legislation is given a nice-sounding name. This bill would actually give the United Nations more power over us by creating a "Peacebuilding Commission" within the U.N. which would serve as the implementing force for the internationalization of what were formerly the internal affairs of sovereign nations, including the United States. This commission would bring together U.N. Security Council members, major troop contributing countries, the World Bank, and the International Monetary Fund, among others. This new commission would create the beginning of a global U.N. military. It would claim the right to intervene in any conflict anywhere in the world, bringing the World Bank and the IMF formally into the picture as well.
I do not favor using the U.S. military to enforce U.N. resolutions, as we are doing now. I think we should only go to war when the U.S. Congress declares war, having determined that war is an absolutely necessary last resort to preserving American lives, freedom and property. I also do not favor circumventing this concept through a U.N. "reform" which would have the United States become a major U.N. troop contributing country. Strengthening the U.N. while weakening our own defense is another recipe for disaster. I see the U.N. as a most serious threat to our Constitution, indeed, our very way of life.
While promoters of the United Nations are quick to claim that the U.N. works to promote peace, to protect human rights and to improve economic and social development throughout the world, it should be clear that the leaders of the U.N. are actively trying to concentrate as much power as possible into the organization which they control. Their desire for global power should be a warning to us to seek other ways to promote peace, to protect human rights and to improve economic and social development throughout the world. For the amount of money that we've funneled into the United Nations and enforcing its edicts, I think much more could have been accomplished (and less damage done) by other means."1
