On Friday, September 8, over 150 heads of state from around the world took a giant step to eventually create a world government. They unanimously adopted the "United Nations Millennium Declaration" at the conclusion of their United Nations (UN) Millennium Summit. "Only through broad and sustained efforts to create a shared future, based upon our common humanity in all its diversity, can globalization be made fully inclusive and equitable," world leaders stated as they unanimously adopted the Declaration.

Declaration "mandates" UN to create global governance

Economist and UN watchdog Joan Veon made a very interesting observation in the September 9 WorldNetDaily. "This is the first time since 1945 that the heads of state have convened to set a ‘Program of Action’ to reform the UN," claimed Veon. Because the 152 heads of state signed the Millennium Declaration, Veon believes that it "automatically incorporates it into international law."

Although some might say that Veon is probably stretching it a bit, it is significant that it was the heads of state themselves that represented the nations rather than having the nation-states' normal ambassador represent them in the Summit deliberations. It was the heads of state who signed the Millennium Declaration. This, in fact, does give the UN all the authority it needs to move ahead and implement all of the changes that are included in the Declaration that do not require a change in the UN Charter.

A special commission will be established to implement the goals stated in the Millennium Declaration. Many of these will be instituted by changes in the existing UN structures or actions, but most will require a change in the UN Charter. That the UN Charter must be changed almost seemed to be a given at the Millennium Summit meeting. One of the key roles of the special commission will be to recommend the needed changes to the UN Charter to meet the goals of the Millennium Declaration.

In an address delivered at the concluding meeting of the Conference, United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan told the Summit that it had sketched out clear directions for adapting the Organization to its role in the new century. "It lies in your power, and therefore is your responsibility, to reach the goals that you have defined", he declared. "Only you can determine whether the United Nations rises to the challenge. For my part, I hereby re-dedicate myself, as from today, to carrying out your mandate."

Annan lists six key points that the heads of state agree to. Every one starts with a statement that "We shall spare no effort..." implying that these are top priorities for every nation of the world.

By signing the Declaration, the heads of state agree to uphold the international rule of law. This is found in 25 interlocking international treaties for which tremendous pressure will be brought to bear for heads of state to sign. These treaties, when combined will effectively control the actions of every human being on planet earth from the UN. Leading the list is the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court. It is this star chamber court that can arrest any person for any alleged "crime against humanity" and the person is considered guilty until he or she can prove himself innocent. For more information see the June 1999 issue of Discerning the Times Digest.

The heads of state also commit themselves to "enhance the effectiveness of the United Nations in the maintenance of peace and security, by giving it the resources and the tools required,... and by strengthening the capacity of the Organization to conduct peace keeping operations." Although not stated, to follow through with this declaration will require a huge increase in the UN budget. While some of it can be implemented immediately, to be fully effective it will require new authority granted by a change in the UN Charter.

The focus of this effort will be in universal disarmament and the control of small arms and light weapons--i.e. global gun control.

Obama's bill on Poverty includes everything in the Millennium Declaration including doing away with the second amendment to our constitution.  It gives the UN control over alot more than that.  It's a bad bill.  Watch our Prez sign it when it gets to his desk.
