The Impotent World police(UN) Charter
The
bronze sculpture is
a reduced version of Vuchetich’s most famous work which was given
by Krushchev to the United Nations in 1959 as a gesture of peace.
It remains there today in the North Garden at the UN headquarters in
New York overlooking the East River. Along the statue reads, this
prophetic scripture from the book of Isaiah 2:4 ---"He will settle
disputes among the nations and provide arbitration for
many peoples. They will turn their swords into plows and their spears
into pruning knives. Nations will not take up the sword against other
nations, and they will never again train for war." (Holman Christian
Standard Bible)
"Why it (NATO) still exists in modern times, is just not clear. It is to a significant extent a throwback to the times of the Cold War," Putin said.
"I
have always believed that NATO is a Cold War atavism. It was set up at a
time, when there was a bipolar system in international relations.
Today, that situation has changed therefore, it is hard to understand or
justify why an organization such as NATO should be existing today,” the
president added.
UN Relic Symbol
World Government—Is the United Nations the Answer?
IN
RECENT years the United Nations has won renewed confidence and
admiration in the world. To millions the abbreviation “UN” evokes heroic
images: troops in blue berets bravely rushing to the world’s trouble
spots to establish peace, relief workers bringing food to the starving
refugees of Africa, and dedicated men and women working unselfishly to
establish a new world order.
According
to a nine-month investigation undertaken by The Washington Post, as
reported in the International Herald Tribune, the reality behind the
image is “an enormous, largely uncontrolled bureaucracy, subject to
abuses and deficiencies that impair its effectiveness.” The study, based
on thousands of pages of documents and interviews with current and
former UN officials, revealed the following picture.
Aid
to Africa: The UN has poured billions of dollars of badly needed aid
into Africa, a continent wracked by war, famine, poverty, and disease.
Countless lives have been saved.
Yet,
thousands of lives and millions of dollars have also been lost because
of mismanagement, negligence, and, at times, corruption. The UN has
pumped relief aid into famine-stricken Somalia, where many people have
been dying each day. But Aryeh Neier, executive director of the Human
Rights Watch, is quoted in the Tribune as saying: “The United Nations
and its various organizations have been so monstrously negligent and
incompetent that they have played almost no role at all in alleviating
Somalia’s misery.”
The
report also charged that some UN officials have been implicated in
diversions of food aid, embezzlement of humanitarian assistance,
fraudulent procurement, black-marketing, and currency-exchange
manipulation. UN investigators found evidence of such fraud in no fewer
than seven African countries.
#Worldpeace
The chief in peace leads the procession claiming 2018...the year of peace. It's not the Pope this time making such bold statement, it's the Chief of the UN. As you can see both heads are confused of who is the symbolic deity of globe peace. The symbolic gesture is an ongoing symbiotic psychosis, in which neither one can separate from the events.
Peacekeeping:
Keeping the peace is a primary goal of the UN, though in the years
since its founding in 1945, there have been over a hundred major
conflicts, and 20 million people have been killed in war. Since 1987,
however, the UN has embarked upon 13 peacekeeping operations, as many as
in its entire history before then.
Prominent former head of State gives frightening details of possible act III scenerio. While some might argue that the cost of these operations is preferable to the terrible price of war, many complain that things have gone too far. For example, peacekeeping operations drag on for decades, eating up hundreds of millions of dollars while negotiations remain deadlocked. The UN peacekeeping mission in Cambodia allocates more than $1 million for TV sets and VCRs for the troops and another $600,000 for magazine and newspaper subscriptions. Reform: There are widespread cries for reform within the UN, but opinions vary as to what needs to be reformed. Developing countries are calling for a greater voice in the decision-making process and would like to expand economic and social programs. Industrialized nations want to cut back on these programs and end corruption, mismanagement, and waste.
Said a senior UN official: “To really reform, you have to do something that is absolutely undo-able in
a bureaucracy: You have to clean the place out. To do something
meaningful, you have to scrape away 45 years of barnacles, and that’s a
lot of barnacles.”
