A UN State of Mind – Where Tyrants Are Literally Never Stopped

We live at a moment in history when tyrants hold forth with none to stop them. Ahmadinejad-the-Monster held forth in all his western-suited glory at the UN and so did the terrorist, Gaddafi. No one at the UN stopped the Libyan madman from speaking well beyond his allotted 15 minutes. If the UN can’t even do this, can you imagine them actually stopping a genocide or a terrorist plot in process?

If they can’t or won’t, why are we funding them? Why do they exist?

The American President has decided to “engage” with the UN and with the world of tyrants. Perhaps he can, perhaps he thinks like them. Me—I have an increasingly hard time dealing with their righteous arrogance and post-colonial resentments, not to mention their demonization of Israel. For example, let me share two recent conversations with you.

In retrospect, both conversations were a little like talking to Red Guard Maoist youth leaders in 1949 in China…Continue reading on Chesler Chronicles >>

Leader Of The World Barack H. Obama

Barack Hussein Obama is smiling this month. Despite minor setbacks he successfully pulled off his speech to the American school children and made some opponents look silly by a last minute change in the speech.

Next up is yet another “historic” speech teleprompter reading to the Nation about how his healthcare plan will save the Nation. It is a sure bet that once again he will lie and fail to explain that his plan will also bankrupt America.

Finally on September 24th, he steps back on to the world stage and chairs the UN Security Council. This is yet another opportunity for him to campaign as Leader of the World (”LOW”). This is his ultimate goal. He wants to lead the “people of the world”, who will then be known as “POW’s.”

Obama has shown in the past that he is willing to put the USA under the dominion of the UN, subjugating Americans to the whims of our enemies. One of the actual times Obama sponsored something during his short tenure as a senator, was when he sponsored the Global Poverty Act, (S. 2433, also HR 2639), which would have placed the sale and manufacture of all small arms and ammunition in the US under the auspices of the UN. It also would have also required the US pour even more money into the UN.

Obama’s actions on the international front have already emboldened our enemies to increase nuclear proliferation and dare us to do anything about it.  He has attempted to influence and punish the Honduran government for following their own constitution and ousting an attempt to create yet another Dictator for life. His choice of UN Ambassador (Susan Rice) specialized in the implications of global poverty.

The Security Council meeting will bring together the biggest egotists and megalomaniacs of this century and Obama will do anything to win the contest as the most congenial megalomaniac.

UN Treaty Jeopardizes Homeschool Freedom in Britain

June 25, 2009 by Michael Ireland  
Filed under News and Opinion

British homeschoolers may no longer be able to teach independently.

The Children’s Secretary of Britain last week accepted a report in full that could change the face of homeschooling in Britain indefinitely.

In the report, the author, Graham Badman, Chair of the British Educational Communications and Technology Agency (BECTA), argues for an end to homeschool freedom.

“While it’s disgraceful that the British government would even entertain this report it’s particularly troubling for American parents because the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) was used as the justification for this action,” said Michael Farris, Chairman of HSLDA and President of www.ParentalRights.org, in a media release.

According to the news release, the Badman report uses Articles 12 and 29 of the UNCRC to justify registering the estimated 80,000 homeschooling families in Britain, forcing them to provide annual reports regarding their homeschool, granting government officials the right to enter the home and interview the children alone as well as reserving the choice of curriculum to the state.

The news release says that HSLDA has been warning that the UNCRC could bring an end to homeschool freedom in the U.S., if the treaty was ever ratified by the U.S. Senate because Article VI of the U.S. Constitution says that treaties become the supreme law of the land.

The news release explains that for the UNCRC to be ratified it must gain a two-thirds vote in the U.S. Senate.

The news release states that if this happens then the UNCRC will automatically supersede all state laws and U.S. judges will be obligated to follow the provisions of the treaty.

Currently, family and education laws are state-based; however, ratification of the UNCRC would transfer the jurisdiction for making family and education law to the U.S. Congress. Congress would, in turn, be obligated to follow the UN mandates contained in the CRC. The only answer at this point would be to add a Parental Rights Amendment (PRA) to the Constitution.

“The Badman report is a stark reminder of how government officials in an English-speaking democracy have interpreted the UNCRC. It’s clear that the right to homeschool in America will be negatively impacted if the U.S. Senate ever ratifies the UNCRC,” the release says.

American-UN Ambassador Rice and Durban II: What Will She Do?

December 17, 2008 by Phyllis Chesler  
Filed under News and Opinion

What is Susan Rice, our future Cabinet-level Ambassador to the United Nations, planning to do about Durban II, the upcoming hate-fest against Israel that the UN is planning for April in Geneva? Does Ambassador-elect Rice (no relation to Secretary of State, Condoleeza Rice), believe that America has the power to sweet-talk evil by sitting down with it, that “not talking” is worse than “talking?”

Only Susan Rice will not be doing the “talking” in Geneva. She will be forced to listen to the wildest and most diabolical ravings against Israel (the symbol for the West, which, when last I looked, includes America)-and all in the name of anti-racism. Will her presence there be seen as legitimating such ravings, as signaling to the Muslim tyrannies that America is willing to sacrifice Israel for the sake of other American interests? Or, might Rice view her refusal to attend a kangaroo court in Geneva as the most eloquent statement America could make against the Orwellian misuse of language by crafty savages who mean to bring the West down? Just as Islamists persecute, murder, and exile infidels in Muslim countries and forbid them to openly practice any religion other than Islam, these same perpetrators of racism and religious Apartheid increasingly scapegoat Israel as an “apartheid-racist” country-and claim that Islam and Muslims are being persecuted, that people are “Islamophobic.”

Sex for Food, Oil for Food: Why Not? It’s the United Nations

May 27, 2008 by Phyllis Chesler

Save the Children, a civilian aid group, released a report today which confirmed that United Nations peacekeepers and civilian aid workers have continued to sexually abuse children in Ivory Coast, South Sudan, and Haiti. The UN peacekeepers, and in this instance, British charity aid workers, have been forcing children to have sex with them in return for food, water, and medicine. Brutal gang-rapes are also common.

Ironically, both Save the Children and Oxfam have discovered child rapists on their own staff but they have dismissed them. The UN has done no such thing. Although UN peacekeepers have, in the past, been accused of similar sexual assaults upon children (in Cambodia and elsewhere), their 2006, promise to both “tackle” and monitor such heartless abuse has apparently not been kept.

A spokesman for the UN Peacekeepers is quoted as saying: “The abuse of children by those who are sent to help is a significant and painful issue and one that we have begun to address. We are doing everything we can to train our civilian staff.”

Does Obama Think He’s Running for President of the U.S., or Ruler of the World?

According to a press release on Senator Obama’s website:

WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senators Barack Obama (D-IL), Chuck Hagel (R-NE), and Maria Cantwell (D-WA) and Congressman Adam Smith (D-WA) today hailed the Senate Foreign Relations Committee’s passage of the Global Poverty Act (S.2433), which requires the President to develop and implement a comprehensive policy to cut extreme global poverty in half by 2015 through aid, trade, debt relief, and coordination with the international community, businesses and NGOs. This legislation was introduced in December. Smith and Congressman Spencer Bachus (R-AL) sponsored the House version of the bill (H.R. 1302), which passed the House last September. Read more
