The UN’s Non-Conspiracy for World Government and Global Taxation

Suppose, loyal reader, you and I were to work together in secret and hatch a plan that would affect others – perhaps a lot of others – without their knowledge or consent. Would we or would we not be launching a conspiracy? I think we would have to say, Yes.

Now suppose we do the same thing, but instead of keeping it secret we put our agenda on the World Wide Web where anyone with a computer, a modem and an ISP can access it. Never mind that we’ve written it in mindnumbing bureaucratese. Never mind that most of the public is more interested in sports, the Oscars or the latest Survivor series. Never mind that its reporting by the mainstream media is minimal and focused on side issues. The point is, our machinations would be available to any literate person who has the will and the know-how to seek them out.

I doubt we could still call it a conspiracy. What would be the point?

But that is the state of affairs with the UN’s latest confab, the International Conference on Financing for Development (FfD) in Monterrey, Mexico, held from 18 – 22 March, 2002. This meeting continued the agenda set forth in Our Global Neighborhood issued by the Commission on Global Governance in 1995, restated in the Millennium Declaration, and now incorporated into the Monterrey Consensus agreement. Except for the Internet, of course, media reporting was skimpy, even though representatives of 171 nations signed the agreement. The meeting was attended by hundreds of other luminaries, from leaders of non-governmental organizations to CEOs of multinational corporations who attended an International Business Forum on "public / private partnerships."
