Free Republic

Thank you for those Freepers who rallied with us to show support for Anton Srdanovic's run for NY's 14th Congressional seat. We told New Yorkers we will not stand for Rep.Maloney and her group of Democrats who want us kneel to the UN during our elections. Anton Srdanovic announced July 21, 2004 that he has filed to run for Congress on the Republican ticket in the 14th district of New York City. Unopposed in the primary, Anton is running against incumbent Democrat Carolyn Maloney. Anton led a rally at Dag Hammarskjold Plaza opposing Rep.Maloney's request for UN election monitors...

<p>BAGHDAD, Aug. 22 -- As soon as he could pick himself up off the floor of his room and remove the shard of glass embedded in his right leg, Army 1st Sgt. William von Zehle rushed toward the sound of the explosion.</p> <p>The 52-year-old retired fire chief from Wilton, Conn., surveyed the rubble and carnage. As he pondered what to do, a man in a blue U.N. baseball cap approached. "We have two people trapped! Sergio and Gil are trapped!" the man said.</p> <p>The names meant nothing to von Zehle, he recalled today. But he went to look.</p>

Stop U.S. From Re-joining UNESCO ISSUE: In 1984, President Ronald Reagan pulled the plug on U.S. participation in the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), due to the organization's corruption and history of undermining the sovereignty of the United States. Now President Bush and Congress are prepared to force the U.S. back into this un-American organization that loathes the principles upon which our nation was founded. According to the American Policy Center (americanpolicy.org), last fall, President Bush told the United Nations that the United States would rejoin UNESCO in an attempt to curry the favor of U.N. Secretary...

A U.S. Army Private from Mississippi has publicly criticized President Bush for his handling of military action in Afghanistan and Iraq, a move that could land her in hot water with her superiors. Private Sarah Freeland, 22, a native of Oxford, said she "loathes" the President's decision to go to war against Saddam Hussein. In an interview pushlished in her hometown newspaper, the Oxford Eagle, Freeland rebuked the President for failing to gain UN approval for the war. "The United Nations should have handled this," Freeland told the paper. "It's not our business taking it into our how hands." According...

Review of the News, Week of April 27, 2003 Clintonian "Conservatives" Hello and welcome to Review of the News Online. I'm William Norman Grigg, Senior Editor for The New American magazine -- an affiliated publication of The John Birch Society. In May of 1995, shortly before traveling to Moscow to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Stalin's victory in what the Soviets called the "Great Patriotic War," then-president Bill Clinton used a commencement address at Michigan State University to redefine patriotism in quasi-Soviet terms. Clinton directed much of that address to Americans who "believe the greatest threat to America comes...

A concerted effort is underway to push Congress to consider the complete withdrawal of the United States from the United Nations. Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas, began the drive April 16 with a letter to House Majority Leader Tom DeLay's office requesting that H.R. 1146, the American Sovereignty Restoration Act (http://capwiz.com/liberty/issues/bills/?bill=1630511 ) of 2003, be brought to the floor for a vote rather than proceed through the normal committee process. The measure, introduced by Paul March 6, requests the United States cease further participation with the United Nations -- including funding. Telephone calls to DeLay's office seeking comment on the request...

Watching the northern branch of the now defunct Iraqi Ministry of Information, otherwise known as the CBC, is a reminder why eliminating the United Nations is as important as eliminating Saddam Hussein. A show that's being repeated on CBC's Newsworld these days is The Fifth Estate special, called "Inside the War On Iraq." It proposes to explain the war in terms of a neo-conservative conspiracy aimed at establishing American hegemony in the world. In the show's view, this has been the reason for the invasion, not ridding the world of a murderous and menacing tyranny. It was all the chilling...

Rep. Ron Paul has reintroduced H.R. 1146, a measure that would end U.S. involvement in the United Nations. With anti-UN sentiment growing, the time may be right to Get US out!

Recently, Dr. Paul reintroduced in the new Congress H.R. 1146, a measure that would end U.S. involvement in the United Nations and rescind diplomatic immunity for United Nations officials. Dr. Paul was interviewed on March 27th about H.R....

  THE U.N. PLAN FOR GLOBAL CONTROL The Habitat II Agenda by Berit Kjos Bicycles instead of cars? Dense apartment clusters instead of single homes? Community rituals instead of churches? "Human rights" instead of religious freedom? The UN Conference on Human Settlements (Habitat II) which met June 3-14 in Istanbul, painted an alarming picture of the 21st century community. The American ways-free speech, individualism, travel, and Christianity-are out. A new set of economic, environmental, and social guidelines are in. Citizenship, democracy, and education have been redefined. Handpicked civil leaders will implement UN "laws", bypassing state and national representatives to work...

Covering the Idaho State Republican Convention for the state's largest and most influential newspaper, the liberal Idaho Statesman, Gregory Hahn completely glossed over the mid-June adoption of a resolution calling for U.S. withdrawal from the UN. After mentioning a single exception dealing with a statewide redistricting resolution, Hahn casually reported: "The rest of the proposals that the resolutions committee supported were passed without debate." The most important of those resolutions stated: BE IT THEREFORE RESOLVED that the Idaho State Republican Party ... respectfully but firmly requests all Members of Congress to use appropriate constitutional authority in order to extricate our...

THE AMERICAS: US softens its stance as world court is ratifiedFinancial Times; Apr 12, 2002 By CAROLA HOYOS The US said it would consider co-operating with the International Criminal Court, which became a reality yesterday as 10 nations handed in their ratifications.Though the Bush administration deeply opposes the world court, Pierre-Richard Prosper, US ambassador-at-large for war crimes, yesterday took a surprisingly conciliatory position.
