Anti-Israel polemics are rooting for the UN as the new emerging power structure as opposed to nation states.

I have been bothered about not understanding the anti-Israel polemics but I think I now do. These people are throwing nation states to the side banking on a new world order in which the UN is the leader. It works with Obama and Hillary, with the Scandinavian countries (they are highly over represented in the UN but have no strong role as nation states so they like the UN), Germany (nobody trusts their government after the Nazis), France (they still may think of themselves as the star diplomats), UK (lots of power from connections with former colonies), the media (Foxnews is probably the only one showing the corruption of the UN). Academia probably thinks of itself as a third power structure but perhaps they think of the UN and themselves as having a common enemy (the nation state power structure).

I sent around this letter:

Secretary Clinton told the Pakistanis that the flood was caused by global warming (in other words the flood was basically the fault of the US). This is despite Pakistan having a history of flooding and all scientists agree that any particular event is extremely difficult to tie to global warming.

She also set up the Department of State's Pakistan Relief Fund and is urging us to give money to Pakistan so that they "can fulfill their own God-given potential." This is after nine years of fruitlessly trying to get them to give up Bin Laden. OK, so it is not nice to make the aid dependent on Bin Laden. But if we don't ask for Bin Laden we are fools.

If you remember, right after 9/11 then Senator Clinton told everybody that the root cause of the attack was poverty. That was despite obvious evidence that the hijackers came from middle class families. She has never withdrawn that statement.

During the presidential election she also said that we have to talk to the Iranians. Recently the State Department under her leadership issued a statement that the Russians can be trusted to remove the nuclear fuel from the

This array of curious statements are odd. Is she a nutty environmentalist? Is she a nutty socialist? Is she a nutty peacenik?

Then one realizes that all those statements are statements that could have been made by the UN. The dreamy, corrupt, and deceitful UN controlled by dictators.

I wonder if Secretary Clinton is orienting herself to a new world order in which the UN will be the world leader. I wonder if she is throwing the US to the wolves.
