The League of Nations New World Order on This Day in History

 

This day in history: Denmark left the League of Nations on this day in 1940.

The League of Nations was the first worldwide intergovernmental organization whose principal mission was to maintain world peace.

During the 20th century, political figures such as Woodrow Wilson and Winston Churchill used the term "new world order" to refer to a new period of history characterized by a dramatic change in world political thought and in the global balance of power after World War I and World War II. The years between the two world wars saw opportunities to implement idealistic proposals for global governance by collective efforts to address worldwide problems that go beyond the capacity of individual nation-states to resolve, while nevertheless respecting the right of nations to self-determination. 

"Such collective initiatives manifested in the formation of intergovernmental organizations such as the League of Nations in 1920, the United Nations (UN) in 1945, and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) in 1949, along with international regimes such as the Bretton Woods system and the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT), implemented to maintain a cooperative balance of power and facilitate reconciliation between nations to prevent the prospect of another global conflict. These cosmopolitan efforts to instill liberal internationalism were regularly criticized and opposed by American paleoconservative business nationalists from the 1930s on." Wikipedia

All of these globalist efforts have failed.

Globalist experiments such as the World Health Organization and the United Nations have wasted billions, perhaps trillions of dollars and have utterly failed to improve the world in the least. 

The UN has failed to maintain peace and has been marred by corruption and controversy.

In the book Snakes in Suits, a study of psychopaths in the workplace, Babiak and Hare write that corruption appears to be endemic at the UN:

There are few organizations in the Western world that could survive with the allegations of mismanagement, scandal, and corruption that permeate the United Nations. For many delegates, officials, and employees, particularly those from developing nations, the UN is little more than an enormous watering hole.

Concerned about its shabby image, the UN recently developed a multiple-choice "ethics quiz" for its employees. The "correct" answers were obvious to everyone [Is it all right to steal from your employer? (A) Yes, (B) No, (C) Only if you don't get caught].

The quiz was not designed to determine the ethical sense of UN employees or to weed out the ethically inept but to raise their level of integrity. How taking a transparent test could improve integrity is unclear. There has been no mention of how management and other officials did on the test.

It's past time for all of these globalist organizations to join the League of Nations in the trash bin of history.

Two Poems Celebrating America's Independence Day (1876 and 1909)

 

Poem for Independence Day by Marcia Jane Eaton 1876

HOW shall we celebrate the day

To which our freedom owes its birth; 

When firm, yet seeking no display, 

The patriots stood in proud array,

Before the mighty ones of earth?

Trusting in God, they stood alone, 

With dauntless front and unquelled eye, 

No servile fear, no sorrowing moan, 

As thus they braved high England's throne, 

And Liberty or Death," their cry. 

Heaven smiled propitious on the hour,

And nerved with hope the little band

They bade farewell to beauty's bower, 

And armed with justice, clothed in power, 

Fought boldly for their native land.

They fought against the tyrant king, 

Led on by freedom's chosen son- 

With clash of arms the valleys ring, 

Till loud their triumph-song they sing, 

Of victory and Washington. 

Not all in vain their blood so free

Was spilled like rain-drops o'er the earth, 

But gathering in one mighty sea

Waters the tree of liberty,

Which in each freeman's heart finds birth.

How shall we celebrate the hour,

Which set our own loved country free? 

With joyous shout in peaceful bower, 

With cannon's roar, and music's power, 

We'll hail the Nation's jubilee. 

Our banner, with its stripe and star, 

We'll keep unstained from sire to son- 

Each breeze shall waft its folds afar, 

Unsullied, as when first in war 

It waved o'er fields of vict'ry won.

We'll teach our children freedom's song, 

To lisp in artless joyous glee, 

And ever, as the strains prolong,

We'll shout the echo loud and long,

Our own America is free!

INDEPENDENCE DAY

WE celebrate "a day of days,"

Which saw a nation rise

Through din of battle, clash of arms,

And severed kindred ties.

This day we draw aside the veil,

And backward take a look

On stirring scenes, brought to our view, 

 As in an open book. 

We see the lights in "old North Church" 

Those beacons burning bright 

And gallop on with Paul Revere, 

Throughout that fateful night. 

We fight with men at Bunker Hill, 

Whose aim was good and true 

Nerved to the task by loyal hearts, 

'Neath coats of buff and blue. 

With praying Washington we wait 

At Valley Forge, in snow and sleet, 

And see the blood-prints on the ground 

From shoeless soldiers' feet. 

With thin-clad, shiv'ring, dauntless men 

We cross the Delaware 

To meet the foe and capture them, 

And untold perils dare. 

We rise with those patriots brave, 

When they their names affix 

To the "Declaration" broad and grand, 

Of Seventeen Seventy-six. 

As liberty loud it proclaims,

We hear the tones of the bell, 

While echoing valley, hill and glen 

The message to nations tell.

And so each year we celebrate

This day, so dear to all,

When a Nation to new life awoke,

At Freedom's earnest call.

-Mary M. North. 1909

The Greatness of the American Republic by Archbishop Ireland 1897

What is a main and most important difference between a Republic and a Democracy?

In a republic, a constitution or charter of rights protects certain inalienable rights that cannot be taken away by the government, even if it has been elected by a majority of voters. In a "pure democracy," the majority is not restrained in this way and can impose its will on the minority.
