The
Aftermath of the U.N. Millennium Summit... A Renewed Commitment to Global
Governance
By Peyton Knight, Associate Editor
Now that the U.N.
Millennium Summit has come and gone, many are wondering "what happened?"
What consensus was reached at the gathering? Are the tools for global
governance in place? What will become of our nation�s sovereignty? Did our
president express the best interest of the United States? What can citizens
of the U.S. expect now that the Summit is over?
While the methods for
implementation were vague, the goals for accomplishment were incredibly
specific. Everything was promised to everyone. Indeed, the world forum
sounded like a roomful of Al Gore�s, each one trying to outdo the other
with how much they could pander to their audience of third world countries
and socialist dictators. The underlying theme was simple: The world has
problems. Only the U.N. can solve them. Give us the power. Sound familiar?
It should. It�s the same mantra that liberals and socialists alike spew to
the easily swayed masses who believe that rights, happiness, and prosperity
begin with government programs and end with individual liberty.
The
most deceptive aspect of all this, is the that U.N. is packaging
their socialistic product in a box labeled "democracy." Let�s examine just
a few of the details of the "U.N. Millennium Declaration" which was derived
from the Summit.
Dictatorial Powers
The most frightening new
direction the United Nations is taking after their summit is the change in
which authority determines the deployment of peacekeeping missions.
Traditionally, this authority has been the U.N. Security Council, a board
consisting of the major heads of state. This allows the major contributing
nations to decide whether or not certain deployments are worthy of their
contributed resources. Most importantly, it gives the United States (the
hands-down most generous contributor to the U.N. budget) a voice in where
the world body will intervene around the world.
No longer. Now,
peacekeeping decisions will be the sole authority of the U.N.
bureaucracy Nations
unilateral power to deploy "peacekeeping" troops around the globe. No more
input from the pesky United States. Nonetheless, the U.S. is still expected
to pump exorbitant amounts of money, soldiers and resources into U.N.
operations How
does the Clinton/Gore administration feel about this castration?
Let President Clinton tell you in his own words, in his address to the
U.N. Security Council at the Millennium Summit.
"We must do more to
equip the United Nations to do what we ask it to do. They need to be able
to be peacekeepers who can be rapidly deployed, properly trained and
equipped, able to project credible force. That, of course, is the thrust of
the Secretary General�s report on peacekeeping reform. The United States
strongly supports that report."
Apparently, the President has no
problem signing away our national security, as well as the lives of
American soldiers, to the United Nations.
The International Criminal
Court
The U.N.�s International Criminal Court (ICC) gained some
momentum at the Summit. This court would empower the United Nations to
enforce its own rule of law. As stated in these pages before, the ICC would
reign supreme over every other judicial system in the world States. The U.N. has vowed to hold every member of
every nation accountable to this court, whether or not that nation ratifies
it.
At the Summit, the Statute for the ICC was signed by an additional
12 countries and ratified by four. The statute now has a total of
110 signatures and 19 ratifications. This is nearly one third of the 60
total ratifications the ICC must have to enter into force.
Also
stressed at the Summit, was the need for the United Nations to have its own
fighting force for supposed peacekeeping missions. This army would consist
of soldiers from varying nations allegiance to
the U.N. This proposal has been labeled many things, most notably the U.N.
refers to it as the "United Nations Rapid Deployment Police and Security
Force" (UNRDF). In reality, this is no more than a U.N. standing army. With
the International Criminal Court at its side, the UNRDF will be boundless
in its operation.
A Turkey in Every Pot
The Millennium Summit
also served as a stage for the leaders of the United Nations to gain
support for their plans of eradicating poverty. Of course, no one likes
poverty, however, the U.N.�s solutions to poverty-stricken areas resemble
nothing more than a global "New Deal" list of entitlement programs. In
their words: "Global challenges must be managed in a way that distributes
the costs and burdens fairly in accordance with basic principles of equity
and social justice." Translation: We must redistribute the wealth need for
greater oversight of national governments, and stricter regulation of the
private sector and civil society.
Through their grand, socialist
redistribution scheme, the U.N. hopes to strengthen the dependency of less
fortunate nations on the world body. Much like other totalitarian regimes,
the United Nations knows that if they can control the flow of goods and
services to the people people themselves.
For
his part, President Clinton also made global promises regarding education
of all things. Unbelievably, Mr. Clinton wishes to force our own failed
public education system on the entire world. In his speech to the Security
Council he declared: "I strongly support the goal of universal access to
primary education by 2015. We are helping to move toward that goal, in
part, with our effort to provide school lunches to 9 million boys and girls
in developing nations."
Global Warming
What would a Millennium
Summit be without the good old "sky is falling" rhetoric about global
warming? Even in the midst of overwhelming scientific evidence that shows
manmade global warming to be a myth, in its declaration, the U.N. vows: "
to make every effort to ensure the entry into force of the Kyoto Protocol,
preferably by 2002, and to embark on the required reduction in emissions of
greenhouse gasses." President Clinton agreed: "We have to meet the
challenge of climate change. I predict that within a decade maybe even
a little less development of
poor nations as disease is today." Of course, Mr. Clinton is dead wrong in
this respect. The biggest obstacle to poor nations would be the
implementation of the Kyoto Protocol, as it would force
developing countries to industrialize within the framework of massive
restrictions on the amount of greenhouse gasses they could emit. How
unfortunate that common sense wasn�t invited to attend the
Summit.
The World Changed
In the end, the leaders of the United
Nations left the Millennium Summit with a renewed sense of power and a
mandate to implement the policies called for in the Charter for Global
Democracy. Their mandate is the "U.N. Millennium Declaration" proposals. The Declaration was
passed by general consensus, meaning no vote was taken and none of the
proposals were debated. This document was simply waived in front of the
General Assembly and heads of state, and passed by virtue of "hearing no
objections." With no objections, the U.N. received authorization from the
highest authority on earth state vote was taken. In a
sense, the world changed in early September U.S. Congress remains
in the dark.
