-Caveat Lector- From http://www.newsmax.com/archives/articles/2001/3/23/192151.shtml }}>Begin Reprinted from NewsMax.com Analysis: Bush Should Beware of U.N.'s Annan Wes Vernon Saturday, March 24, 2001 WASHINGTON President Bush met late Friday behind closed doors with U.N. Secretary- General Kofi Annan. Shortly after the Oval Office meeting began, the president called reporters in to say that his administration thinks Annan "is doing an excellent job as secretary- general of the United Nations." Many of the president's supporters do not share that view. Some have noted the secretary-general is a strong opponent of Bush's plan to deploy National Missile Defense to protect America from enemy missiles. There is some irony, in their view, in that the president welcomed Annan on the 20th anniversary of President Ronald Reagan's 1983 announcement of the missile protection program. It is widely believed that Reagan's refusal to give up NMD's predecessor, Strategic Defense Initiative, played a major part in the collapse of the Soviet Union, which was simply unable to keep pace. For his part, Annan said he was looking forward to "our discussions this afternoon." The issues specifically named by Annan were "HIV-AIDS, poverty, the Balkans and African issues." "Mr. Annan is a nice gentleman, but he typically does not hold sovereignty in high esteem," Cathie Adams, Eagle Forum's representative to U.N. conferences, told NewsMax.com. Annan 'No Friend of America' "Hes charming. He smiles. But he's no friend of America," said Cliff Kincaid, president of America's Survival Inc. Before the meeting, I had asked a White House operative if this plain-speaking Texan planned to discuss with Annan some of his more anti-American positions. There was no word on whether these issues would come up. Adams, who has attended about "eight or nine" international conferences held under U.N. auspices, says the president has a political problem when it comes to publicly taking on a high U.N. official. And that is that the A merican people are blissfully ignorant of how the United Nations is whittling away U.S. sovereignty. The Dow can be tumbling 200 or 300 points in a given day, and without any sign of embarrassment or sense of the ridiculous TV anchors will break into a financial news program (as happened recently on CNN) to inform us bre athlessly of the latest in a trial involving a rap star nicknamed "Puffy." Yet those same mainstream media do not consider it "news" that the secretary-general of the United Nations supports policies that would shut down our country (the Kyoto global warming treaty) and make the Great Depression of the 1930s look like a tea party, or that he supports the International Criminal Court, which could yank Americans away from the protection of our justice system and put them at the mercy of a foreign court on trumped- up charges by our enemies. Adams says she hopes that in our dealings with Annan and with the U.N. in general, "Americas best interest will be the first concern" of our officials. Some of the U.N. treaties are pre-empting our Constitution, she says. When I asked her what would happen if push really came to shove on this and if we had to choose between, on the one hand, the freedoms we take for granted in this country, and U.N. edicts on the other hand, Adams replied, "If it came to economics [such as the Kyoto treaty kicking in], you can be sure the American people would rise up and say No way! " But on other matters, she is not so sure, because "it is happening so gradually" and p eople are not being told what is at stake. Adams points out, for example, that few are aware that Annan has said, "It is my fervent hope that the International Criminal Court will have unquestioned authority and the widest possible jurisdiction." That was one quote that was not repeated during the brief photo-op when Annan met with Bush Friday. Making Nice Instead, we were treated to diplomatic niceties such as the president's statement, "I appreciate your willingness to serve a second term, Mr. Secretary-General, and I'm looking forward to working not only to make sure tha t you serve a second term, but, once thats done, work closely with you to keep the peace and make the world more prosperous." Two observations on that one paragraph: It's obvious from the president's clarification of his stand on the theory of global warming that he does not see eye to eye with Annan's views on what constitutes "prosperity," surely not a treaty that would shut down Am erica. Supporting Annan for a second term is a bad idea, according to Kindcaid of America's Survival. He thinks the president should have used the meeting as "an opportunity to tell Annan that the U.S. will oppose his bid for a second term as U.N. boss. Sacking Annan would send a message that America is serious about missile defense." In fairness to Bush, there's no way right now of knowing whether his discussion with Annan

Calls Grow for U.S. to Leave U.N.

Friday, Sept. 8, 2000
As the United Nations Millennium Summit continues in New York, conservatives in
Washington are increasing their calls for the U.S. to withdraw from the left-
wing world body.
Thursday, in a press conference on Capitol Hill, supporters of H.R. 1146, the
American Sovereignty Restoration Act, presented more than 300,000 signed
petitions in favor of the measure, which calls for the U.S. to cut its ties to
the U.N.
"We are putting a bright spotlight on those in Congress who don't support
national sovereignty. And we've brought more than 300,000 signed petitions to
show Congress that the American people want their sovereignty protected," said
Tom DeWeese, president of American Policy Center,
http://www.americanpolicy.org/
which organized the drive.
According to DeWeese, recent proposals to eliminate permanent veto power in the
Security Council, the creation of international rapid response forces, and the
plan to create an International Criminal Court point to a U.N. that is
increasingly taking on the role of a world government.
"Obviously its focus is changing from its original purpose to be a place where
nations can come together to discuss their differences," said DeWeese. "Clearly
the United Nations is on a different track."
DeWeese's comments were echoed by Dr. Herb Titus, an attorney who wrote the
legislation.
"What we've seen in New York is the unanimous mandate by world leaders and
heads of state to go ahead and implement an agenda for global governance," said
Titus.
Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas, was also on hand to promote a recently introduced bill
he has co-sponsored that would prohibit U.S. soldiers from serving under U.N.
command or wearing U.N. insignias or uniforms.
"U.S. soldiers sign up to defend the interests of the United States," said
Paul. "They should not be required to take orders from any nation or body
except duly appointed representatives of the American people."

The libertarian therefore considers one of his prime educational
tasks is to spread the demystification and desanctification of the
State among its hapless subjects. His task is to demonstrate
repeatedly and in depth that not only the emperor but even the
"democratic" State has no clothes; that all governments subsist
by exploitive rule over the public; and that such rule is the reverse
of objective necessity. He strives to show that the existence of
taxation and the State necessarily sets up a class division between
the exploiting rulers and the exploited ruled. He seeks to show that
the task of the court intellectuals who have always supported the State
has ever been to weave mystification in order to induce the public to
accept State rule and that these intellectuals obtain, in return, a
share in the power and pelf extracted by the rulers from their deluded
subjects.
