Here's his 1999 Speech to the UN accepting the Norman Cousins GLobal Governance Award
If you don't have the stomach to read the whole thing, here is the key quote:
It seems to many of us that if we are to avoid the eventual catastrophic world conflict we must strengthen the United Nations as a first step toward a world government patterned after our own government with a legislature, executive and judiciary, and police to enforce its international laws and keep the peace.
To do that, of course, we Americans will have to yield up some of our sovereignty. That would be a bitter pill. It would take a lot of courage, a lot of faith in the new order.
But the American colonies did it once and brought forth one of the most nearly perfect unions the world has ever seen."
Winter is almost upon us.
One more opportunity to throw the UN into the East River during a blizzard.
Let’s not let it slip us by another year.
I just threw up in my mouth a little.
But Uncle Walter, the colonies freed themselves from a tyrannical government; they didn’t voluntarily enslave themselves to one. ESAD, Walt. (Too late but the thought’s still there.)
It seems to many of us that if we are to avoid the eventual catastrophic world conflict we must strengthen the United Nations as a first step toward a world government patterned after our own government with a legislature, executive and judiciary, and police to enforce its international laws and keep the peace.What a disgusting liar Cronkite was; I have to say that despite putting myself at risk of violating the principle of de mortuis nil nisi bonum. The truth:
How do you account for the fact that the United Nations Charter follows the format of the Russian (USSR) Constitution of 1936 rather than the format of the (Covenant of the) League of Nations? Would you feel there was any significance in the fact that the general secretary for the organization which drew up the charter was Alger Hiss?It was patterned after Stalins government.
The Naked Communist, Chapter 8
In his book "Russian Assignment" (Vice Admiral) Leslie Clark Stevens, details his time as Naval attache to Russia. He writes that, during his first days there he was shown various things and places. He mentions, on page 30, that he was in the countryside when he wanted to see what a small crowd was doing at picnic they'd passed. He writes; "From a neighboring dacha came the sounds of a loud-speaker playing Russian popular music. The highpoint of the day was when, towards evening, Walter Chronchite (sic), the smooth and able United Press correspondent, led us all in a typical Russian parade with much throwing out of chests and chanting of ;Slava! Slava! (Glory! Glory!)".a href="https://www.kirkusreviews.com/book-reviews/vice-adm-leslie-c-stevens/russian-assignment/">Russian Assignment
