Chapter 14
What Must Be Done
When bad men combine, the good must associate; else they will fall one by
one, an unpitied sacrifice in a contemptible struggle.1
Edmund Burke (April 23, 1770)
[I]t does not require a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless
minority keen to set brush fires in people's minds.2
Samuel Adams
If we wish to be free ...we must fight! I repeat it, sir, we must fight!!

Patrick Henry (March 23, 1775)
In the preceding chapters, we have painted, we admit, a very alarming
picture of reality. It was entirely our intent to do so. We believe, like
Founding Father James Madison, that it is proper and prudent to sound the
alarm, wake the town, and tell the people when danger is threatening. In
fact, it would be immoral not to warn others about an imminent peril.
Madison wisely advised, as we have noted previously:
[I]t is proper to take alarm at the first experiment on our liberties. We
hold this prudent jealousy to be the first duty of citizens and one of [the]
noblest characteristics of the late Revolution. The freemen of America did
not wait till usurped power had strengthened itself by exercise and
entangled the question in precedents. They saw all the consequences in the
principle, and they avoided the consequences by denying the principle. We
revere this lesson too much, soon to forget it.4
Tragically, most Americans have forgotten this important lesson. We are long
past "the first experiment on our liberties." We are rushing headlong to
destruction, tyranny, and slavery.
Some will say that our concerns are wildly exaggerated, that the UN, while
often obnoxious and corrupt, is toothless and can present no real danger to
the mighty United States. And besides, they will aver, it still represents
mankind's noblest aspirations for peace. We can reform it and use it to good
purpose. We can trust our president and Congress to watch out for our
interests.
Others will react in the opposite direction, asserting that the Insiders'
new world order and their plans to empower the UN have proceeded too far to
be stopped now. The enemy is too rich and powerful, too well organized and
deeply entrenched. Resistance is futile; we have already lost.
Both of these attitudes blind, senseless optimism and hopeless defeatism
should be equally repugnant to free peoples. We assure you there is nothing
exaggerated about the dire threat posed by the UN in anything we have
written. But it is not necessary for anyone to rely on our word. We have
quoted extensively from UN and U.S. documents and copiously cited the
statements of many of the key players in this drama.
We have gone to
considerable lengths to make many documents available on our Internet
website and to provide links to many other primary sources. Any person of
ordinary intelligence, with an open, honest mind, can read the literature
and compare it with readily verifiable facts concerning the rapidly growing
"empowerment" of the UN in all of the areas we have discussed.
Let us take a lesson from the patriots who founded our nation. In the summer
of 1775, these courageous souls faced a situation not dissimilar from our
own. Some argued that, in spite of the Crown's tyrannical acts, things were
not all that bad and that the prudent course was to continue entreating
England for fairness and justice. Others warned that it would be futile and
foolhardy to dare to challenge the British military might.
In his famous oration at St. John's Church, Patrick Henry addressed the
faulty arguments of both the Panglossian optimists and the defeatists.
He eloquently and forcefully expressed the
position that full and complete information, even though unpleasant, was the
necessary basis for a proper decision:
[I]t is natural for a man to indulge in the illusions of hope. We are apt to
shut our eyes against a painful truth and listen to the song of that siren
till she transforms us into beasts. Is this the part of wise men, engaged in
a great and arduous struggle for liberty? Are we disposed to be of the
number of those who, having eyes, see not, and having ears, hear not, the
things which so nearly concern their temporal salvation? For my part,
whatever anguish of spirit it might cost, I am willing to know the whole
truth; to know the worst and to provide for it.5
Mr. Henry then spoke words that are as relevant today (if not more so) as
they were in that desperate time:
They tell us, sir, that we are weak unable to cope with so formidable an
adversary. But when shall we be stronger? Will it be the next week, or the
next year? Will it be when we are totally disarmed, and when a British [or a
UN] guard shall be stationed in every house? Shall we gather strength by
irresolution and inaction? Shall we acquire the means of effectual
resistance by lying supinely on our backs, and hugging the delusive phantom
of hope, until our enemies shall have bound us hand and foot? Sir, we are
not weak, if we make a proper use of those means which the God of nature
hath placed in our power.
Three millions of people, armed in the holy cause
of liberty, and in such a country as that which we possess, are invincible
by any force which our enemy can send against us. Besides, sir, we shall not
fight our battles alone. There is a just God who presides over the destinies
of nations, and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us. The
battle, sir, is not to the strong alone; it is to the vigilant, the active,
the brave. Besides, sir, we have no election. If we were base enough to
desire it, it is now too late to retire from the contest. There is no
retreat, but in submission and slavery! Our chains are forged, their
clanking may be heard on the plains of Boston!...
Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of
chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others
may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death! 6
The submission and slavery the American colonists faced was a very real and
dire prospect, but was nothing compared to that which we will face under a
fully empowered UN. The British government was autocratic, abusive, even
tyrannical at times but not outright totalitarian.
The organized
one-worlders, however, intend to transform the UN into the global governing
instrument of their ruthless, totalitarian "New World Order."
Projecting the Lines
Let us summarize the case we have made and, from what
is already known, project the lines concerning what we can expect in the
future if, that is, by "irresolution and inaction" we allow the Insiders'
plans for the UN to come to fruition.
Those plans include:
-
Creating a United Nations Military, with army, navy, air force, and nuclear
weapons.
-
Dispatching U.S. military personnel on ever-increasing UN missions
throughout the world.
-
Gradually disarming all nation states, including the U.S., so that the UN
military forces will be unchallengeable.
-
Establishing the International Criminal Court and rapidly expanding its
jurisdiction.
-
Establishing a global UN police force and bringing all local police under
its control.
-
Outlawing private ownership of firearms and disarming citizens.
-
Imposing global draconian regulations on all human activity under the
pretext of protecting the environment.
-
Drastically restricting and, ultimately, destroying property rights.
-
Forcing vast relocations of human populations in order to cre-ate
"Wildlands" for UN-designated animal species. Imposing global "carbon
taxes" on all fuels, a "Tobin tax" on financial transactions, and myriad
other tax proposals.
-
Placing a vast regulatory regime on all labor, business, and employment
policies.
-
Imposing population controls, including mandatory abortion a la Red China's
UN-approved-and-funded "one child policy."
-
Accelerating UN subversion in our schools and bringing all education under
the jurisdiction of UNESCO.
-
Subjecting all parents to licensing and claiming UN "protective" authority
over all children.
-
Striking down all laws against homosexuality and pedophilia/pederasty.
-
Greatly expanding the practice of euthanasia and assisted suicide.
-
Promoting paganism, "New Age" spirituality, the occult, and Satanism under
the guise of promoting peace, brotherhood, and a "Global Ethic."
The list above is far from exhaustive. Anyone willing to study the facts
will be able to readily verify that the Pratt House mafia promoting the UN
is pushing for all of these insidious programs and more. All of these
incredible grabs for power are, in fact, already in various stages of
implementation.
So what will be the consequences of inaction? What will an all-powerful UN
government mean to life as Americans know it? Isn't it possible that our
would-be slave-masters will be more benevolent than old-style Communist
dictators? Surely American leaders would not want to preside over
bloodletting, torture, and genocide.
That is a dangerous assumption. First of all, while many of the Insiders of
this one-world cabal are American citizens, they are not Americans; they are
internationalists, with loyalties to no country. Many of them hold, or have
held, public office and have sworn to uphold and defend the Constitution
while doing
everything in their power to subvert and destroy it. Secondly, while no one
can predict with absolute certainty what others would do given the power and
opportunity, nonetheless there are compelling principles we dare not ignore.
Let's look first at the lessons of history regarding the consequences of
power.
We have previously invoked Lord Acton's famous maxim "Power tends to corrupt
and absolute power corrupts absolutely." 7 This principle was accepted as an
undisputed truism by the American Founding Fathers.
They were so firmly
convinced that the best of men, regardless of character and intentions,
could not be trusted with unrestrained power that they designed our
government to thwart the ambitions of men.
Thomas Jefferson expressed it
this way:
"In questions of power, then, let no more be heard of confidence
in man, but bind him down from mischief by the chains of the Constitution."
8
The situation is even worse when the system encourages the worst of men to
gravitate to the top as happened so often in so many nations in the last
century. Then we are no longer talking about "mischief with our liberties.
Our lives, the lives of our families and neighbors, and the lives of
billions of others are at stake.
John Locke warned centuries ago that "he that thinks absolute power purifies
men's blood, and corrects the baseness of human nature, need read but the
history of this, or any other age, to be convinced of the contrary."9 The
history of the spectacularly bloody 20th century offers a definitive rebuke
to those who believe that a world government would be a blessing.
In his important book Death by Government, Professor R.J. Rummel documents
that the case for global government rests entirely upon an essentially
superstitious belief in the benevolence of government as an institution.10
Rummel, a professor of political science at the University of Hawaii, is
perhaps the world's foremost authority on the phenomenon of "democide" the
systematic murder of human beings by governments.
"Democide is committed by
absolute Power; its agency is government," Rummel declares, and the
death toll of democide is nearly incomprehensible.
"In total, during the
first eighty-eight years of this [20th] century, almost 170 million men,
women, and children have been shot, beaten, tortured, knifed, burned,
starved, frozen, crushed, or worked to death; buried alive, drowned, hung,
bombed, or killed in any other of the myriad ways governments have inflicted
death on unarmed, helpless citizens and foreigners. The dead could
conceivably be nearly 360 million people." 11
Although "the common and fundamental justification for government [is] that
it exists to protect citizens against the anarchic jungle that would
otherwise threaten their lives and property," in the era of the total state
"government has been truly a coldblooded mass murderer, a global plague of
man's own making." The supposed "wisdom" of academic elites who depict
government as a benign institution, says Rummel, ignores a "preeminent fact
about government" namely, "that some of them murder millions in cold
blood. This is where absolute Power reigns.12
One of Professor Rummel's most important insights is that "peace" under a
tyrannical government is actually more lethal than war.
"Putting the human
cost of war and democide together, Power has killed over 203 million people
in this century," Rummel points out.13
However,
"even if all to be said
about absolute and arbitrary Power was that it causes war and the attendant
slaughter of the young and most capable ... this would be enough. But much
worse [is the fact that] even without the excuse of combat, Power also
massacres in cold blood those helpless people it controls in fact, several
times more of them."14
If this has been the record of death and desolation caused by the exercise
of unrestrained power by totalitarian governments of nation-states, can we
expect the horrors of unrestrained world government to be less? Remember, it
is the same perpetrators of these unspeakable crimes (or their totalitarian
successors) whom the one-world Insiders insist we must join in common cause
for "peace."
The "respectable" CFR elites have always been comfortable with
mass-murdering thugs like Stalin, Mao, Tito, Castro, Sukarno, Nkrumah,
Kenyatta, Lumumba, Ben Bella, Ceausescu, Aristide, Mandela, Arafat, et al.
As we have noted,
David Rockefeller, one of the most powerful drivers of the
Establishment agenda during the 20th century has praised,
"the social
experiment in China under Chairman Mao's leadership" as "one of the most
important and successful in human history."15
He made this incredible
statement in spite of the well-known fact that Mao Tse-tung's "social
experiment" had by that time (1973) cost the lives of as many as 64 million
Chinese at the hands of their Communist masters!
Rockefeller and his fellow one-worlders share with "Mao the Master Butcher"
the addictive lust for absolute power. Again, Patrick Henry has provided us
the proper attitude toward a record of tyranny.
He said,
"I have but one
lamp by which my feet are guided; and that is the lamp of experience. I know
of no way of judging the future but by the past." "And judging by the past,"
he declared, "I wish to know what there has been in the conduct of the
British ministry for the last ten years to justify those hopes with which
gentlemen have been pleased to solace themselves...?"16
What has there been in the conduct of the CFR-UN cabal in the last fifty
years to justify any hopes of benign intent on their part? Patrick Henry's
exhortation is echoed today by the FBI's famous profiling pioneer John
Douglas, who has written extensively on the criminal mind and obstacles to
criminal rehabilitation.17
From his extensive studies, Douglas maintains
that the best predictor of human conduct is previous conduct.18 While many
violent criminals may perform well and give indications of rehabilitation
under the restraints of prison, when they are released and confront the same
opportunities and pressures that gave rise to their original offenses, they
repeat their crimes. What would be the crimes of such men if they attained
sufficient power that they did not have to fear being caught or brought to
justice?
That is the near reality we face today.
What could we expect from men with proven amoral character who would gain
unrestrained power and the opportunity to do evil? Moreover, can anyone
imagine that a Hitler could, let alone would, turn his back on the evil
forces that propelled him to power?
Some may seek comfort in the illusion that tyranny is strictly a foreign
phenomenon that domination and exploitation of one's fellow man are not in
the heart of American leaders. After all, these men are cultured, genteel,
and highly educated. They are some of the most famous political, business,
and academic leaders. Some of them kiss babies, smile convincingly, and talk
of God, patriotism, and family values.
Some of them give millions of dollars
to hospitals, schools, and charitable causes. They are courted and praised
by the media and responsible, respectable members of society. Surely these
eminent men are not capable of the criminal activities we suggest.
This naοvetι and inability to judge by objective facts instead of deceptive
appearances have always been the boon of criminals and the bane of their
victims. Even the worst of criminals do not always openly display their
wickedness. In fact, most of the time they disguise their evil beneath
unctuous charm.
Adolf Hitler is universally recognized today as having been one of our
planet's premier criminals. Yet, during his rise to power (and even after he
attained power) prominent American and British "liberals" and Insiders were
singing his praises.19 They pointed to the schools, hospitals, roads, and
social projects he had built, and they belittled or denied his well-known
criminality and totalitarian aspirations. We all have seen innumerable
documentaries in which Hitler is maniacally ranting to his Nazi hordes.
However, he was very capable of presenting an entirely affable, congenial
image as well, and was frequently filmed hugging children, petting dogs,
visiting war veterans, or chatting amiably with foreign dignitaries.
Al Capone, perhaps America's most notorious criminal, likewise, knew how to
turn on the charm at strategic moments and to posture as the champion of
"the little guy."
According to the World Encyclopedia of Organized Crime:
Capone was a murderous thug without remorse.... He was responsible for
perhaps as many as one thousand or more murders certainly hundreds. Worse,
for a decade the city of Chicago embraced this bragging, boasting, strutting
killer, its newspapers paying homage to him and quoting his every cretinous
statement, its citizens a goodly portion of the population nodding
tolerantly, if not approvingly, in his direction.20
With the fabulous wealth gained from his criminal enterprises, Capone bribed
cops, judges, jurors, prosecutors, and reporters and "gave generously to
charity."
Notes the Encyclopedia:
Capone spent money lavishly on himself and those about him, projecting the
image of generosity, of a philanthropist to the common man. Old-timers in
Chicago still pay his bloody memory offhand compliments about the so-called
soup kitchens Capone established in Chicago during the Depression to feed
the hungry, little realizing that the crime boss did this at the suggestion
of attorneys attempting to improve his horrible reputation when he was being
tried for income-tax evasion.21
Much of the public and many politicians were willfully blind, refusing to
believe that Capone was in fact the evil crime lord his accusers made him
out to be. Public officials, such as Chicago Mayor William Hale Thompson,
Chicago Police Chief John Garrity, and Illinois Governor Len Small, who
should have been protecting the public from the likes of Capone, were
actually in league with the Capone mob.22
So it was also with the crime
bosses who followed after him.
Although now largely forgotten, during the 1970s and '80s Pablo Escobar Gaviria was one of the most feared organized crime bosses in the world. As
head of Colombia's infamous Medellin drug cartel, he was also touted as one
of the world's richest men. His thugs unleashed a reign of terror that
included the assassination of dozens of judges, prosecutors, presidential
candidates, governors, police officials, and journalists.
Many
more were bribed into complicity with his criminal operation. Yet he
showered millions of dollars on churches, clinics, hospitals, and schools;
provided college scholarships to many students; and funded many public works
and charitable institutions.23
Was this "bad guy" just misunderstood? Did he
really have a heart of gold underneath a rough exterior? That's what his
defenders claimed, including some members of the press. Of course that was a
lie. Escobar was just doing what all smart bad guys do: buy protection in
the form of public relations. He bought the loyalty of thousands of people,
and was elected to the Colombian Congress, in spite of his murderous record.
The point is that hiding behind a patina of false respectability is standard
modus operandi for "smart" criminals. If relatively uneducated street thugs
like Capone, Escobar and the infamous John Gotti, the "Teflon Don," as he
was glamorized in the press can figure this out, isn't it foolish to think
that that lesson has escaped the notice of our fabulously wealthy Insiders
with their Ivy League pedigrees and hordes of think-tank "experts" at their
beck and call? Just because these "respectable" leaders do not pull the
triggers does not absolve them from culpability anymore than a "respectable"
Mafia boss is innocent of the killings perpetrated by his underlings.
With more space, we could credibly demonstrate that U.S. Insiders (direct
forebears to the current new world order cabal) orchestrated the rise of
Communism to a world power in the USSR and in China and supplied these
criminal regimes with Western technology and the means for nuclear
weapons.24
It is also true that they willingly sent U.S. sons to die in no-win wars to
build their new world order. They betrayed friendly, anti-Communist allies
into Communist tyranny. They used U.S. foreign aid to further communize and
socialize nations under petty despots.25 They supported brutal terrorist
groups and Communist-directed wars of "national liberation." 26 They have
facilitated the Communist drug offensive against the United States and
frustrated all genuine efforts to expose and oppose it.27
They have then
turned around and offered dangerous, totalitarian proposals disguised as a "War on Drugs," but which, in reality, are
aimed at making war on our freedoms. They have promoted the destruction of
morality and the family. They have sought the destruction of private
property and the middle class. They have worked to subvert the influence of
monotheistic religions. They have encouraged teaching methods that promote
illiteracy, conformity known as political correctness, and worship of the
Almighty State as God.
These and a host of other crimes too numerous to mention should leave no
doubt that top leaders of the Pratt House presidium are out to create the
kind of absolutist, all-pervasive, mind-and soul-destroying, Big Brother
dictatorship depicted with such horrifying force in George Orwell's 1984.
In case your memory of that nightmarish world has dimmed since you read
Orwell's classic in high school, it may help to recall commissar O'Brien's
hideous colloquy with the tortured protagonist, Winston Smith.
After
delivering an excruciatingly painful electric shock to Smith, who is
strapped to a bed, O'Brien casually explains:
Obedience is not enough. Unless he is suffering, how can you be sure that he
is obeying your will and not his own? Power is in inflicting pain and
humiliation. Power is in tearing human minds to pieces and putting them
together again in new shapes of your own choosing. Do you begin to see,
then, what kind of world we are creating? It is the exact opposite of the
stupid hedonistic Utopias that the old reformers imagined. A world of fear
and treachery and torment, a world of trampling and being trampled upon, a
world which will grow not less but more merciless as it refines itself.
Progress in our world will be progress toward more
pain. The old civilizations claimed that they were founded on love and
justice. Ours is founded upon hatred. In our world there will be no emotions
except fear, rage, triumph, and self-abasement. Everything else we shall
destroy everything. Already we are breaking down the habits of thought
which have survived from before the Revolution. We have cut the links
between child
and parent, and between man and man, and between man and woman.
No one dares
trust a wife or a child or a friend any longer. But in the future there will
be no wives and no friends. Children will be taken from their mothers at
birth, as one takes eggs from a hen.... There will be no loyalty, except
loyalty toward the Party. There will be no love, except the love of Big
Brother. There will be no laughter, except the laugh of triumph over a
defeated enemy.28
The brutish O'Brien then matter-of-factly continued his explanation to the
helpless and supine Winston Smith.
"But always do not forget this, Winston
always there will be the intoxication of power, constantly increasing and
constantly growing subtler. Always, at every moment, there will be the
thrill of victory, the sensation of trampling on an enemy who is helpless.
If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face
forever." 29
A Call to Action
A ruthless, tyrannical, Orwellian world state is precisely
what the top Insiders plan to have. Like Orwell's O'Brien, they are
intoxicated with power. They crave absolute power. And if they should ever
attain it, we will experience a murderous "plague of power" such as this
planet has not seen before. We will know democide on a scale not previously
imagined.
The moral man who fully realizes the terrible consequences of allowing such
a future to come to pass by default will be highly motivated to join the
battle against the forces of evil and oppression. The moral person who
understands what is at stake for himself, his loved ones, and the
incredible heritage of freedom with which we have been blessed will be
imbued with a high level of commitment to stopping these would-be tyrants.
But how does one go about such a daunting task? Those committed to this UN
world-government goal enjoy, as we have shown, enormous influence and
prominent positions throughout our institutions, especially in the media.
They are able to create the appearance of universal support for their
agenda.
As the late Admiral Chester Ward, a former longtime member of the
Council on Foreign Relations, observed:
"Once the ruling members of CFR have
decided that the U.S. Government should adopt a particular policy, the very
substantial research facilities of CFR are put to work to develop arguments,
intellectual and emotional, to support the new policy, and to confound and
discredit, intellectually and politically, any opposition."30
Clearly, anyone who dares to sound the alarm or question the globalist
agenda invites well-orchestrated attacks and ridicule. In short, Americans
face a very perilous situation: the major power centers and safeguards on
which they depend to protect their interests have either been compromised or
are secretly working to enslave us. With the major channels of communication
in internationalist hands, alerting other Americans to this situation is a
formidable challenge.
Yet, as we shall see, the situation is not hopeless if
a core of responsible Americans will organize and act in pursuit of a sound
plan.
A Commensurate Response
What needs to be done commensurate with the
seriousness of the danger? Our answer: Enlist many more citizens to follow a
sound program to get the United States out of the United Nations completely.
With the UN as a foundation, the globalists are waging assaults on our
sovereignty on an incredible number of fronts. And they have equally
incredible resources at their disposal for doing so, including the support
of now more than 1,000 NGOs lobbying for the UN agenda. We cannot expect to
obtain the resources to defend against all of those attacks. Moreover, such
a purely defensive strategy is always doomed to defeat.
The only sensible
strategy is to put the globalists' gains up for grabs by going after the
foundation for their assaults the United Nations itself.
"There are a thousand hacking at the branches of evil," said Henry David
Thoreau, "to one who is striking at the root."31
Rather than hacking at the
ever-proliferating branches of the
UN program, we must concentrate our forces where it counts.
We must wield a
sharp axe to the root and trunk of the UN tree by forcing the U.S. to
withdraw from the UN. U.S. withdrawal before the UN acquires real,
independent power would condemn the UN to the ash heap of history. Without
U.S. support, the United Nations would share the same fate as its
predecessor League of Nations.
When the U.S. Senate wisely refused to have
the U.S. join the League following World War I, the League soon faded into
oblivion.
The UN is not the only program or assault on the U.S. system that has been
mounted by the Establishment one-worlders. But it is a cornerstone of their
plans an investment of over five decades. As a mechanism to destroy our
sovereignty, it threatens to take many other battles in resisting the
collectivist assault out of the hands of Congress and the American people.
Depriving the Conspiracy of its creation, the UN, is essential to the
preservation of liberty and accomplishing this would be an incredible
setback to the Insiders' plans.
Of course, we are not claiming that convincing Congress to take such a step
will be easy. It will not be.
We are not minimizing the difficulty in the
least. But, with an effort commensurate to the danger, Congress can be
persuaded. It will take enormous effort, planning, and organization by
thousands of concerned citizens in order to overcome the momentum and
influence that the many powerful proponents of the new world order have
built through labor, subversion, and deceit. But just as America after Pearl
Harbor had to work to catch up, we shouldn't expect to overcome a tough
opponent who has the initiative with easy, half-way measures.
One very significant advantage we have on our side in this monumental effort
is truth and the natural, God-given, human desire to be free. Another is the
considerable freedoms and protections that still exist under what remains of
our badly tattered constitutional system. There are many layers of strength
not yet rotted and corrupted. One very important indication of that reality
is the fact that the Insiders still must resort constantly to
massive lies and deception to sell their fraudulent, totalitarian programs.
If the fight were already over, as the defeatists claim. our enemies would
not be going to such lengths to deceive; they would be flying their colors
openly.
But they cannot promote their agenda openly. As dumbed-down, numbed-down,
bummed-down, and scummed-down as a growing segment of the American public
is, there is still sufficient residual morality and intelligence to force
the conspirators for world tyranny to cloak their schemes in noble-sounding
rhetoric and extravagant charades. This means they must invest hundreds of
times (even thousands of times) more in labor and resources to sell their
lies than what it takes to offset their lies by promoting the truth.
The architects of the new world order have not yet been able to entirely
erode the republican form of government that our Founding Fathers
established and that has been passed on to us through the sacrifices of so
many dedicated Americans who have gone before us. Concerned Americans just
need to inform themselves and use the rights, freedoms, and blessings we
enjoy in order to reverse our course.
Most Americans are not aware of what already has been accomplished in this
struggle.
In 1997, 54 representatives voted for the first measure ever to
come before the full House calling for the termination of our membership in
the United Nations.32 Two years later, 74 representatives voted to kill all
funding for the UN, which, if successful (218, a majority, would be
required), would effectively stop our participation in this traitorous
sham.33 And blocking all funding is an easier legislative step than outright
withdrawal, for the House alone can refuse to fund UN operations (whereas
withdrawal would require Senate action, and the president would likely claim
the constitutional power to veto such action).
Even though there is growing legislative support for withdrawal from the UN,
at the moment there is not nearly enough support to accomplish the task. The
involvement of concerned citizens who inform themselves and then inform
others is the
only route to generating sufficient political pressure that will force
Congress to vote to terminate U.S. support for the UN.
This informed
pressure will be required to offset the enormous Establishment pressure that
would be brought to bear to prevent Congress from taking such a step.
Unfortunately, with so much at stake, it is not sufficient to sell
politicians on the merits of our case. Instead, success will take clout.
Realistically, most representatives will bow to pro-UN pressure until there
is sufficient well-informed outrage to force them to quit making excuses and
act! The vast majority will not budge until they see that they must if they
want to remain in office.
What we are talking about is a plan to rebuild a higher standard in
Congress. The defense of freedom requires that principle must govern our
affairs, else pragmatism, dictated by the Conspiracy for a global
collectivist order, will destroy us.
While we would like to see more
statesmen gain office, this is only a small part of the solution. In today's
climate even statesmen, who act on principle rather than political
pragmatism, will require the support of an informed electorate if they hope
to remain in office. And that same informed electorate is also the key to
holding all politicians accountable for actions in defense of freedom.
So
the real challenge is building and leading that informed electorate.
Sound Organization Required
Building sufficient understanding in time will
require organization under extremely tough, responsible, and knowledgeable
leadership.
Taking on the UN means taking on the power and influence of the
Establishment, and in particular the
Council on Foreign Relations (the UN's
creator and sponsor) as well as all of the politicians and media moguls the
CFR has in its pocket. This battle can't be carried through to success
without leadership that understands the wiles of politicians and the
pressures that the CFR can bring to bear.
For example, as public understanding grows that the UN is not our friend,
inevitably new proposals to "reform" the UN will be offered which
politicians will be tempted to support. This is not only a bad idea, but
also a dangerous trap.
No reforms will change the nature of the beast. The
UN was designed from the beginning to promote global tyranny. But
politicians love to champion "compromise" because they see a chance to
pacify uninformed constituents while not risking the wrath of the
globalists. Which also means that freedom loses. These politicians love to
posture with calls for "reform" in order to deflect mounting pressure that
would force them to take real action with real political consequences.
Unfortunately, many conservative groups that oppose most of the UN's agenda
have already been co-opted to adopt the "reform the UN" agenda. That is a
prescription for defeat.
To force serious political action (and keep politicians from wiggling,
stalling, and doing nothing in the face of enormous pressure and deception
from the Establishment) requires a well-informed, well-organized action
group under sound leadership. And that's why we recommend The John Birch
Society (JBS) as uniquely qualified to serve that role.
The JBS has a track record of over four decades of principled leadership, of
taking tough stands including working to expose the influence of the
Conspiracy we have been discussing in this book. For more than 40 years, it
has been courageously fighting the good fight, blocking or slowing down many
dangerous programs of that Conspiracy, and, most importantly, surviving the
heat directed at anyone who takes the point in this fight.
And the Society has the plan and organization to get the job done. In
countless battles great and small, in cities and rural areas, the challenge
comes down to reaching enough Americans with the problem and a workable
solution in time. This book is part of that plan. But success requires the
wise and committed help of many more like yourself.
We encourage readers to
contact the Society for more information or the individual from whom the
reader got this book. *

We also urge readers to get informed and to contact their congressman
insisting that he support measures to Get US out!
The name of the game is to
be effective. Be firm, but don't insult or be strident. And most
importantly, gain muscle by getting others to help. Membership in the
Society helps enormously with that challenge.
The variety and extent of UN agencies and programs can be bewildering. When
one first comes to understand the incredible organization the enemy has
built to confuse, confound, and deceive Americans into giving up their
inheritance of freedom, it is easy to become discouraged. But that reaction,
if allowed to stand, only serves the enemy. One of the key strategies of
this cabal is to create the "illusion" of overwhelming support so that
Americans see no leadership for sanity.
The Establishment one-worlders want
to demoralize good Americans so that they give up any idea of resistance.
And so these conspirators fear and try to capture, corrupt, discredit, or
isolate any leaders who would give Americans hope that there is
resistance, that there is sound leadership to follow.
For more than four decades, members of The John Birch Society have been
educating their fellow citizens concerning the dangers of the United
Nations. Their work has been largely responsible for the disfavor that
befell the UN for many years. It took major deception and planning by the
new world order advocates, including new "threats" and the "collapse" of
Communism, to dust off the UN and put their plans on a fast track. We now
face the looming threat of world tyranny a danger greater than our nation
has faced at any previous time in its history.
The danger is great because
it is neither seen nor understood by most of our citizens. And so
The John
Birch Society has created a new drive to meet this challenge. We are all
fueled by the urgency to capture the attention of our fellow citizens and
finally put an end to the creature on the East River. We respectfully ask
for your help.34
We are asking for your help in an epic educational battle. Thankfully, the
primary challenge is not a military one. In fact,
for today's problems a call to arms would only serve the cause of our enemy
most powerfully and help him consolidate and acquire the unrestrained power
he seeks.
Our enemy's success all stems from the ignorance, delusion, and lack of
understanding of the American people. If good Americans gain a proper
understanding of what is happening, our problems can be resolved within the
institutions that George Washington and others fought to give us.
If the people don't gain the understanding to choose better leaders and hold
their politicians accountable to the Constitution, they cannot expect to
improve their government through revolution. In fact, just the opposite
would happen. What is needed instead is to use the resources and the
freedoms we have to inform our fellow citizens and put the government our
Founding Fathers gave us back on track.
But for success in the educational battle ahead, we do need to find the same
spirit of patriotism and determination that Patrick Henry captured so well
in his previously mentioned "Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death" oration:
If we wish to be free if we mean to preserve inviolate those inestimable
privileges for which we have been so long contending if we mean not basely
to abandon the noble struggle in which we have been so long engaged, and
which we have pledged ourselves never to abandon until the glorious object
of our contest shall be obtained we must fight! I repeat it, sir, we must
fight!! An appeal to arms and to the God of Hosts is all that is left us!
...Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of
chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others
may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death! 35
