Letter: United Nations is anti-American
Tuesday, Sept. 11, 2001 | 9:32 a.m.
The lack of participation by the United States in the United Nations conference against racism is well advised. At United Nation conferences the atmosphere is decidedly anti-American. Fidel Castro regularly receives enthusiastic ovations at United Nations functions, as do other similarly oppressive dictators.
As another indication of the anti-freedom mindset of the United Nations, consider that Sam Nujoma, the former terrorist leader of Swapo, who is now the United Nations-installed president of Namibia, was selected to be honorary co-chair for the U.N. Millennium Summit of World Leaders in New York.
Expecting an empowered United Nations to dispense global justice is like inviting the criminals to join the police force, the prosecution and the judiciary in order to stamp out crime. Behind the humanitarian rhetoric, a much more sinister agenda is at work, the agenda of a highly organized cabal that every responsible American needs to understand.
