The Millennium Summit
The focus of the Millennium Summit,
where about 160 world leaders and heads of state will
meet in September 6-8, is defined in a May 10, 2000
Addendum, A/53/948/Add.1:
"The Secretary-General wishes
to propose the following as the overall theme and the
sub-topics of the Millennium Summit:
"Overall theme: "The
United Nations in the twenty-first century"
"Sub-topics:
"(a) Peace and security,
including disarmament;
(b) Development, including poverty
eradication;
(c) Human rights;
(d) Strengthening the United
Nations."
UN document #SG/2063 L/T/4345 dated
May 17, 2000 states: "In his letter sent today to
all heads of State or government, the Secretary-
General has identified 25 core treaties, which reflect
the key policy goals of the United Nations, to be the
focus of a sustained effort to encourage signature and
ratification during the Millennium Summit. Included
among them are a range of human rights conventions, as
well as treaties on refugees and stateless persons,
international criminal matters, disarmament and the
environment."
While the focus of the Millennium
Summit seems to be benign, ask yourself: Would the UN
gather all the heads of state together just so they
could have a group picture? First, the 25 treaties
(out of a total of 514) are written in a way that
provides an interlocking set of international treaties
that will, as was done to Gulliver by the hundreds of
strings by the Lilliputians in Gulliver's Travels,
allow the UN to control every aspect of every person's
life in the world.
Second, the series of roundtables
during the three day event will focus on the inability
of the UN to meet the needs of the world and by
default the need to change the UN Charter. This need
has been amplified by the contrived and controlled
protests and riots by Non-Governmental Organizations
(NGOs) all around the world this past year, like those
in Seattle and Washington, DC. The protests will be played as
demands by the "peoples of the world" to
create global governance by changing the UN Charter.
Third the UN and international
meetings to be held just prior to the Summit will be
designed to put enormous pressure on world leaders at
the Summit of the need for radical changes to the UN
Charter to permit global governance. Exactly how the
Charter will be changed will be given to a Special UN
Commission to work out. Hang on to your seat. Although
you probably won't hear much about it in the popular
press, we are most likely about to witness the
greatest delusion in the history of mankind.
Other events around the Millennium
Summit
August 28-31---The
Millennium World Peace Summit of Religious and
Spiritual Leaders
"For the first time in
history, approximately one thousand of the world's
preeminent religious and spiritual leaders will gather
for the World Peace Summit opening at the United
Nations on August 28. This landmark event will seek to
coordinate religious leadership as a driving force for
building tolerance, fostering peace and encouraging
inter-religious dialogue among all regions of the
world. In addition to inviting religious leaders to
sign a Declaration for World Peace, the Summit will
create the International Advisory Council of Religious
and Spiritual Leaders that is designed to serve as an
ongoing interfaith ally to the United Nations in its
quest for peace, global understanding and
international cooperation." Chairman Maurice
Strong
"Religious leaders gathering
at the United Nations from August 28 will discuss a
number of concrete steps to declare their commitment
to work more closely as a community of spiritual
leaders and with the diplomatic community of the
United Nations to prevent the outbreak of war. They
will work together to discern shared commitments to
peace expressed in a Declaration for World Peace. The
assembled religious and spiritual leaders will explore
how to establish an International Advisory Council of
Religious and Spiritual Leaders to offer support to
the United Nations and the United Nations
Secretary-General in peacemaking and peacekeeping
efforts. This Council will add a unique spiritual
dimension to the United Nations' difficult task of
mediating conflicts between nations and among peoples
from different religious and ethnic groups.
August 28-30--53rd
Annual DPI/NGO Conference--Global Solidarity: The Way
to Peace and International Cooperation
"It will also look at the many
ways in which civil society can participate in the
decision-making processes - nationally and
internationally - that affect the well being of people
everywhere. The conference will also explore the role
of civil society in policy formulation and
implementation in relation to the increased demands
for humanitarian intervention in conflict areas."
September 2-10--State of
the World Forum--Mikhail Gorbachev
Following the events in Seattle and
Washington, Forum 2000 marks the next major
opportunity for civil society and the private sector
to take leadership in the dynamic process of the
global debate on globalization. The singular challenge
is to move beyond exclusion and protest to convene the
multi-stakeholder dialogues the current situation
demands.
It is more than just a coincidence
that the UN Millennium World Peace Summit, DPI/NGO and
the State of the World Forum meetings are all
occurring at the same time. The Millennium Peace
Summit will focus on the need for uniting religion and
the UN in attaining global peace. The Declaration for
World Peace will call for disarmament and civilian gun
control, just as defined by numerous UN documents
published over the past several years. The DPI/NGO
meeting will not only call for the implementation of
Charter99-A Charter for Global Democracy, it will also
likely call for a special parliamentary body called
the "People's Assembly" to be established
that will represent the UN accredited far left,
socialist-environmental-new age NGOs. If so, the UN
will present this to the world as the means to
represent the peoples of the world. (See the April,
2000, June, 2000 and July, 2000 issues of DTT Digest
for more information.) Finally, The State of the World
Forum will likely host most of the heads of state
attending the UN Millennium Summit and will put
tremendous pressure on the world leaders to create
world government by changing the UN Charter and
signing the UN treaties. V
