Trump Delivers Hard Truths to UN General Assembly: Future belongs to sovereign, independent nations
Frontpage Mag ^ | 09/25/2019 | Joseph Klein

United Nations Secretary General Antonio Guterres’ speech to the 74th annual High-Level General Assembly meeting on September 24th was full of generalities about world problems the UN is purporting to deal with, in contrast to President Trump's honest discussion of hard truths.

“We are here to advance the common good while upholding our shared humanity and values,” the secretary general said. “That vision united the founders of our Organization.” However, Secretary General Guterres’ concept of the UN “vision” today is of a globalist institution, which was not the founders’ original vision at all. The founders' vision for a new United Nations was much closer to the one that President Trump has articulated. The United Nations was founded to bring sovereign nations together for the purpose of cooperating in the solution of common problems and taking collective action where warranted against aggressors’ threats to international peace and security. The United Nations Charter specifically recognizes the sovereign status of the member states. It stipulates that the United Nations does not have the authority “to intervene in matters which are essentially within the domestic jurisdiction of any state.”

President Trump sought to remind the world leaders he addressed in his own General Assembly speech of the UN founders’ original understanding of the relationship between the world organization and its sovereign member states.

"The future does not belong to globalists,” the president said. “The future belongs to sovereign and independent nations, who protect their citizens, respect their neighbors and honor the differences that make each country special and unique.”

The president spoke in measured but resolute terms. He issued no military threats. Indeed, he declared that “America’s goal is not to go with these endless wars, wars that never end.” However, the president expressed his first allegiance to America and its citizens.

You probably can’t find a box of Depends or a bottle of Maalox on any store shelf in Manhattan this morning.

Loved the look on the Iranian member as Trump talked about not catering to their blood-lust and how sanctions would tighten instead of loosen...

well it's about time some positive articles showed up here....
I've decided not to get tangled up in this impeachment dem/media hype which is following the same route of the russia thingy. Only way the dems can assure they have an election stage in these next months.

I laughed when I saw they're putting up “time Lines” boards on Nancy's impeachment aspirations. It completely knocked off the media Trumps grand speech at the UN and everything else of Importance. The media continues to be only a political instrument......real news has fallen on the wayside long ago.

Yeah, that guy was definitely hating life at that moment. I liked the reaction of that female Israeli diplomat when Trump said [Arab dictators] ''have used anti-Semitism as a means of distracting from their own failures''.

And Pelosi from the pit of hell has tried to take the conversation away from this speech via the impeachment “inquiry”. This needs to re-enter the news cycle. Rush, Hannity, anyone?
