Question

i am afraid that our country is moving toward fascism. all the evidences ie; what is covered in public media, the fire we have created and/or the fuel we poured over the fire IN MIDDLE EAST, the conspiracies, and the attitudes of people, specially the conservatives and the recent attitude about U.N., they all point at the dangerous path we are on! i mean it guys , this is the same path germany took which let to nazi Germany! i see the same patterns. WE NEVER TRY TO NEGOTIATE OUR DIFFERENCES AND HAVE A MUCHO ATTITUTE TOWARD OTHER COUNTRIES AND INVADE THEM AND NOW WE ARE TRYING TO DISTROY THE ONLY MEANS FOR CONFLICT RESOLUTION WHERE ALL COUNTRIES ARE REPRESENTED? THAT IS CRAZY! DON'T FALL FOR ALL THE LIES AGAIN. USA IS TRYING TO CONTROL THE WHOLE U.N. AND THEY ARE TRYING TO CHANGE THE PUBLIC OPINION AGAINST THEM! FOR THE SAKE OF YOUR YOUNG CHILDREN AND LOVED ONES ON'T FALL FOR THESE LIES AGAIN! PEACE

Answer 1

The US and Israel virtually controlled the UN from the 1960 until just a few years ago. But the atrocities that were being perpetrated on the Palestine people became so bad and so common that other countries began to question the actions of Israel and the unwavering support that they invariably got from the US. So the UN began to pass resolutions to try and curb Israel's actions and this went against the wishes of the US. That is when the US got cranky with the UN and now, because they can't run the thing, the US has 'taken its bat and ball and gone home'. That is the only reason why the UN has fallen out of favour with the US - because the UN won't let the US (and Israel) do whatever they like. It would simply be pretty childish behaviour if the stakes were not so high and the ramifications so serious for the entire world. The US truly has become the bully of the world.
The United Nations is, as you point out, the ONLY body that can provide a forum for diplomatic conflict resolution on an international scale. The United Nations do not have a "lets go in with guns blazing" policy like the US does and so it takes time to find out what the real situation is and what avenues it can persue to find a solution which will end with the least amount of bloodshed and destruction possible. But apparently the USA knows better!

Answer 2

I agree with you. That is EXACTLY what it was put in place for and we have ALWAYS had an upper hand as a country.

As a country, we have a terrible record in wars and in policy!

I do not think there is a treaty we have not broken, but we want to attack everyone else if they do! Some people in the US do not want to be a world power, they want to be THE world power and to hell with everyone else.

We can't survive as a country that way! We have to play by the rules as well, but some Americans love a double standard, especially when we are stealing someone else's resources!!

We started the UN, we need to make it work for OUR sake!

See how people rewrite history, and this was from a high government source. Why do we hate to tell the truth?

"1846-48 -- Mexican War. On May 13,1846, the United States recognized the existence of a state of war with Mexico. After the annexation of Texas in 1845, the United States and Mexico failed to resolve a boundary dispute and President Polk said that it was necessary to deploy forces in Mexico to meet a threatened invasion."

The truth is a bunch of illegal immigrants from the US went beyond the territory of the United States, which at the time was the area of the Louisiana Purchase!

They were in the country of Mexico and squatting the land. They then decided to Annex part of Mexico as their own which led to the Alamo and then the use of US forces by Polk, a very unpopular war, to take part of Mexico! The Alamo is a shrine built to Americans who were illegals in another country! That really isn't the way the above reads does it? Though that is the way we got Texas, Arizona, California, Nevada and Puerto Rico!

Answer 3

If we follow our leaders with our eyes closed we will end up being controlled by those countries. USA is trying to control the world, apparently the American government believe they are the local cops of this world and what they say goes.
I totally disagree with the at the Americans try to control everything inthe world. Bush has it in for anyone who is not in line with his governments extremist views! The UN is a puppert of the US and has been vitually since its conception, it is a western dominated imposer on the rest of the world, unfortunately throughout the middle east embracing democracy is not all that common and the Bush admin believe it is the right of the US and UN to impose the western beiefs on these countries. This leads to wars as one civilization tries to defy antother. We can't go aroud denying another coutry their own rights to form whatever government is accepted by the local culture, all we in the developed west have the right to do is develop fair and well controlled UN to protect the citizens for humanitairan reasons.

Answer 4

Without a doubt. If the North American Union is enacted we will follow an appointed world law. The laws of the United States will be obsolete. The UN wants to take away our guns, for now United States said no but if we don't stop the SPP and the NAU we're sunk. Do yourself a favor and access the link,it will open your eyes.

Answer 5

It is high time that the American people elected somebody with moral principals and a desire to lead the most powerfull country in the world in a way that reflect their purported desire for democracy and freedom and hopefully a respect for others. A supporter of the religious right is something the world could do without.

Answer 6

Yes.

"[American leaders] are perhaps not so much immoral as they are amoral. It's not that they take pleasure in causing so much death and suffering. It's that they just don't care ... the same that could be said about a sociopath. As long as the death and suffering advance the agenda of the empire, as long as the right people and the right corporations gain wealth and power and privilege and prestige, as long as the death and suffering aren't happening to them or people close to them ... then they just don't care about it happening to other people, including the American soldiers whom they throw into wars and who come home - the ones who make it back alive - with Agent Orange or Gulf War Syndrome eating away at their bodies. American leaders would not be in the positions they hold if they were bothered by such things."
William Blum

"The U.S. is a signatory to nine multilateral treaties that it has either blatantly violated or gradually subverted. The Bush Administration is now outright rejecting a number of those treaties, and in doing so, places global security in jeopardy, as other nations feel entitled to do the same. The rejected treaties include: The Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty (CTBT), the Treaty Banning Antipersonnel Mines, the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court (ICC), a protocol to create a compliance regime for the Biological Weapons Convention (BWC), the Kyoto Protocol on global warming, and the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty (ABM). The U.S. is also not complying with the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), the Chemical Weapons Commission (CWC), the BWC, and the U.N. framework Convention on Climate Change."
Project Censored 2005

"What happened was the gradual habituation of the people, little by little, to be governed by surprise, to receiving decisions deliberated in secret; to believing that the situation was so complicated that the government had to act on information which the people could not understand, or so dangerous that, even if people could understand it, it could not be released because of national security ...
To live in the process is absolutely not to notice it -- please try to believe me -- unless one has a much greater degree of political awareness, acuity, than most of us ever had occasion to develop. Each step was so small, so inconsequential, so well explained or, on occasion, regretted.
Believe me this is true. Each act, each occasion is worse than the last, but only a little worse. You wait for the next and the next. You wait for one shocking occasion, thinking that others, when such a shock comes, will join you in resisting somehow.
Suddenly it all comes down, all at once. You see what you are, what you have done, or, more accurately, what you haven't done (for that was all that was required of most of us: that we did nothing) ... You remember everything now, and your heart breaks. Too late. You are compromised beyond repair. "
German professor after World War II describing the rise of Nazism to a journalist

"This country is in the grip of a President who was not elected, who has surrounded himself with thugs in suits who care nothing about human life abroad or here, who care nothing about freedom abroad or here, who care nothing about what happens to the earth... The so-called war on terrorism is not only a war on innocent people in other countries, but it is also a war on the people of the United States: a war on our liberties, a war on our standard of living. The wealth of the country is being stolen from the people and handed over to the superrich. The lives of our young are being stolen. And the thieves are in the White House."
Howard Zinn

" With unfailing consistancy, U.S. intervention has been on the side of the rich and powerful of various nations at the expense of the poor and needy. Rather than strengthening democracies, U.S. leaders have overthrown numerous democratically elected governments or other populist regimes in dozens of countries ... whenever these nations give evidence of putting the interests of their people ahead of the interests of multinational corporate interests."
