President George H. W. Bush -
"Out of these troubled times, our fifth objective - a new world
order - can emerge.... We are now in sight of a United Nations that
performs as envisioned by its founders."

September 11, 1990 televised address:
"[The
Gulf Crisis] has to do with a new world order. And that new world order
is only going to be enhanced if, this newly activated peace-keeping
function of the United Nations proves to be effective."
- January
9, 1991 Press Conference
Brock Chisholm
former director of UN World Health Organization
"To achieve One World Government it is necessary to remove from
the minds of men their individualism, their loyalty to family traditions and national
identification."
Jim Clymer
National Chairman
Constitution Party
"Our American Independence is as
much in jeopardy today as it was during the dark days of the American Revolution."
Vicente Fox
(on the surrender of U.S. Sovereignty)
In recent years a new International System has been
developing, oriented toward the establishment of norms and principles of universal
jurisdiction, above national sovereignty, in the areas of what is called the New Agenda,
such as human rights and democracy, questions of gender and discrimination, the protection
of the environment or the war on organized crime and corruption.
.... The construction of new rules of international
co-existence must continue.... we are actively participating in various forums in the
construction of this international architecture.
Henry Kissinger
"Today, America would be outraged if UN troops entered Los Angeles to restore
order. Tomorrow they will be grateful! This is especially true if they were told that
there were an outside threat from beyond, whether real or promulgated, that threatened our
very existence. It is then that all peoples of the world will plead to deliver them from
this evil. The one thing every man fears is the unknown. When presented with this scenario
individual rights will be willingly relinquished for the guarantee of their well-being
granted to them by the World Government."
Ron Paul
"I think the United Nations is dangerous to our
republic and therefore we ought not to participate."
- Washington Times, March 9, 2003
Congressman John E. Rankin
"The United Nations is the Greatest Fraud in all
History. Its Purpose is to Destroy the United States."
Washington Times
"Secretary General Boutros Boutros-Ghali ... urged the [UN] to
consider imposing its own taxes to become less dependent on the United States...."
- January 16, 1996
George Will
syndicated columnist
"The United Nations is not a good idea badly implemented, it is a
bad idea.... Certain political phrases become, through mindless repetition, cant that
bewitches the intelligence. One such phrase is 'the international community,' which is
oxymoronic because 'community' denotes unity based on shared political interests and
cultural values. And beware of political entities absurdly named. Just as the Holy Roman
Empire was neither holy nor Roman nor an empire, the UN is a disunited collection of
regimes, many of which do not represent the nations they govern. The UN is premodern
because it is unaccountable and irresponsible: It claims power not legitimized by the
recurring consent of periodically consulted constituencies of the governed. Inebriated by
self-approval, the UN is grounded in neither democratic consent nor territorial
responsibilities, nor independent fiscal means, nor the material means of enforcing its
judgments."
