Washington to Rejoin UNESCO After Nearly 18 Years
The N.E.A. has been carrying on UNESCO's ideals,politics and policies, all along. So logically, we have always been controlled by the U.N.'s educational ideals. The U.S. Rejoining UNESCO; along with the NEA hold on our education system, has the United Nations front and center in the control driver seat.
Ideas don't control people. The NEA may control education and be led by UNESCO, but the case isn't made that it's controlled. Bush's vague announcement that we're returning to UNESCO may make us more vulnerable to some kind of real control, or it may not. From what you've told me, there's no abdication of control.
