A seemilgly innocent little thing like the Rotary Club...

[KirkandBurke]

"Be proud to be Rotarians, because we're right there, right in ,the vanguard of the U.N.," Widmer said.

The vanguard of the UN?

van·guard (vngärd) n. ,
The foremost position in an army or fleet advancing into battle.
The foremost or leading position in a trend or movement. Those occupying a foremost position.

Linguistic coincidence or appropriately chosen words?

[dukeman]

Hmmmmm. Perhaps the antichrist will be a Rotarian.

[.45MAN]

Those really seem like chosen words..... We need to worry! The UN needs to be thrown out of this country. We are surounded with lemmings that will follow blindly any orginized movement....

[RISU]

What the f**k is an "Illinois" UN official???

[LN2Campy]

Edward Widmer, president of the Illinois Division of the United Nations Association of the United States

Before everyone gets their panties in a twist, look at the name of this loser's organization. Then ponder the fact that he was speaking to a few Rotarians at a small town Holiday Inn. This ain't exactly the Bilderberger/Davos crowd here...

[sanchmo]

Yes,
and WW1 was "the war to end all wars"
and the League of Nations made the world "safe for democracy"
and Neville Chamberlain brought us "peace in our time"
and the Oslo Accord paved the way for "a lasting peace in the Middle East"

1 Thessalonians 5:3
While people are saying, "Peace and safety," destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.

[sanchmo]

You're right. If this no-name two-bit schmedrick is part of The Grand Conspiracy, then admission requirements are getting pretty low.

[KirkandBurke]

Edward Widmer, president of the Illinois Division of the United Nations Association of the United States

I didn't even know there was a UN Association of the US!! Aaarrrgh!!! It's worse than cockroaches!

[GingisK]

...then admission requirements are getting pretty low...

Hitler's "brownshirts" didn't have particularly high admission requirements. That is one of the reasons they were sucessful. Street thugs and other versions of lowlife don't mind destroying a perfectly decent form of government.

If those UN cockroaches are getting plentiful enough to start little chapters like that one in Illinois, then storm clouds are gathering. This has been obvious for years to those who have been watching.

Not sure Globalization will fly in the USA, at least in the time frame and method Edward Widmer claims. Remember how successful the world standardization of weights and measures went? Today, thirty years after the inception of that effort, try and talk Centimeters to your plumber. I think the inch is still dominant here in the US and will probably remain so...at least until our stubborn and intransigent generation dies out.

I don't know if my above comparison is a fair measurement of the general conservatism of us Americans but I think there is a semblance of parallels to draw on.

I suppose I would not mind adopting such ideas as Globalization as long as certain criteria are prescribed and followed. For instance…

1. All nations must adopt the American Constitution including all amendments as the foundation for their government.

2. All nations must adopt the English language as their primary means of communications.

3. All nations must adopt the English Units system of measurement.

4. The International flag will consist of a field of blue populated with white stars dominating the upper-left quadrant overlaying a field of 13 alternating horizontal red and white stripes.

These few demands (only four, mind you) should easily be adopted by the International community in order for Globalization to be successful. Sounds reasonable, don’t you think?

[Excuse_Me]

"Within 10 years time, you're going to see the beginnings of an embryonic world order," Widmer said.

Good. Let's harvest this embryo, and use the stem cells to heal all those brain-sick countries out there that still have dictatorships, as well as the U.N., which wants one.

What the f**k is an "Illinois" UN official???

I hate Illinois UN officials.

[pocat]

Harry - fellow JBS kook bump...

"...the U.S. was the only country out of 180 to not sign a U.N. protocol against chemical warfare and bioterrorism, Widmer said. "

Hmmm...I guess someone forgot to tell Sadaam and bin Laden that there was a treaty-signing party at the UN that day.

What about North Korea, China and various other US adversaries? Did they sign it also? If so, will they abide by the treaty?

[maxwellp]

Illinois UN???

[Inspector Harry Callahan]

Thanks for the bump. The establishment is really ramping up the efforts to relinquish our sovreignty now. It is a sad time for us all. Witness yesterday's vote on "Fast Track" authorization for the president. More globalism.

[Coleus]

Get us out of the United Nations, Now!

[NC_Libertarian]

U.N. official predicted there could be world peace within 10 years

What the f**k is an "Illinois" UN official???

I believe it's an NGO (in UN terminology) that promotes UN programs throughout the US and has state chapters, presidents, etc.
