WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War! Don’t Arm the U.N.; Re-Arm the U.S. Dan Frisa Thursday Sept. 7, 2000 In an outrageous bolt from the blue, Bill Clinton announced his support for a near-treasonous proposal to establish a standing army of the United Nations. This concept is clearly against U.S. national interests and violates our long-established policy disfavoring command of U.S. troops by foreign leadership. Not since the deadly, misguided tenure of Jimmy Carter – when U.S. troops were part of a U.N. "peacekeeping" mission in the Middle East under U.N. command and suffered needless casualties – have U.S. forces been placed in such jeopardy. Now more than two decades hence, Clinton and his "world without nations” man at the State Department, Strobe Talbot, are inexplicably giving aid and comfort to a proposal favored by our enemies. Such lunacy could only have been inspired by one too many Clinton touchy-feely Renaissance Weekends, where such profound global thinkers as comedian Al Franken sit in circles on the floor with legs crossed and arms linked, listening to John Lennon’s song "Imagine" and pine for a world where "there’s no countries; it isn’t hard to do." Great music doesn’t make good policy, which is why it’s so troubling that Clinton is singing this tune. And if you listen carefully, Al Gore can be heard in the background humming right along. Instead of blathering on about such balderdash, the president should be focused on the important, serious business of rebuilding U.S. military capabilities, which have been seriously impaired by Clinton’s raid on the cookie jar labeled "peace dividend." Clinton and Gore have presided over, and fostered, an unprecedented decline in our nation’s defensive readiness. The U.S. is currently far below necessary levels of strength in all branches of the armed forces: the Navy is down several battle groups; the Air Force is short several wings; and the Army is deficient too many divisions. Morale is down and pay is at poverty levels, resulting in serious recruitment and retention shortfalls. This is a crucial time in U.S. history. We have made ourselves vulnerable on too many fronts. It is at just such times that threats from our foes are invited, and they are many. Communist China is saber-rattling, Russia is dictating limits to our defenses, rogue nations abound and nuclear threats are numerous. It is with this backdrop that Bill Clinton and Al Gore support arming the U.N. They are dead wrong. We must have a commander in chief who will instead re-arm the U.S. The stakes are too high and the storm clouds too dark to do anything less. Which is why November 7 is such an important date, one that will live in either infamy or glory.
