Managing Global Insecurity

I'm concerned about what I view as a trend toward world government. The Brookings Institute just released the "Managing Global Insecurity Project." John Podesta, who heads Obama's transition team and Susan Rice, nominated by Obama to the post of UN Ambassador, were both involved in this project.

The report calls for the creation of a UN high commissioner for counter-terrorism, which could give the UN increased authority to interfere in the soverign affairs of nations including ours, a UN sponsored climate-change law that might supercede US law, and the creation of a standing 50,000-strong UN army that could be deployed against nations, presumably including our own, who might be in violation of any one of the increasing number of agreements and treaties coming out of the UN.

This is no right-wing conspiracy theory. Those of us who value liberty beware.
