"Let everyone who is Godly pray to you while you may be found"  (Psalm 32:6)

• Overview:
  The largest-ever assembly of world leaders, a reported 155 heads of state, opened a "Millennium Summit" at the UN's New York City headquarters Wednesday, hoping both to improve the organi-za--tion's tarnished image and to further advance thinly veiled long-term plans for world government.
  
• The agenda includes expanding "peace-keeping" (military) operations, enlargement of the Security Council and reduction of its veto powers, nuclear weapons and trafficking of small arms, debt relief for developing nations, gender equality, ratifying treaties (International Criminal Court, landmines, global warming, biological diversity, rights of the child, biological diversity, desertification, children in armed conflict, terrorism, and a world conference on terrorism). Of special concern is the "Earth Charter." It will create, in the name of environmental protection, an international commission with vast powers to intrude into and control every nation.
  
• President Clinton, in light of failure in Bosnia, Somalia, Sierra Leone, Indonesia, and elsewhere, called for better training, equipment and leadership for UN troops and for quicker, more effective deployments, saying, "all nations, including the United States, must pay for it." In August, his administration welcomed a 58-page UN report urging, effectively, a standing UN Army.
  
• Clinton also urged assembled leaders to learn to accept "compromise" in our increasingly "interde-pen-dent" world. He met separately with Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak and Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat. During his own speech, Arafat made remarks some interpret as backing away from his vow to unilaterally declare a Palestinian State on September 13.
  
• UN-allied non-governmental organizations (NGOs), many of them government subsidized, regularly pressure Congress to implement the UN agenda. Last May, 13,500 representatives from 1000+ such NGOs created "We the Peoples Millennium Forum Declaration and Agenda for Action: Strengthening the United Nations for the 21st Century." This scary document calls for increased world government, more funds for "peacekeeping" (world army), international gun control, environmentalism, feminism, abortion, homosexuality, socialist redistribution of wealth, and global taxation to support the UN and world socialism, etc. (see http://www.millenniumforum.org/html/papers/mfd26May.htm )
  
• Last week, 1000 clergymen from scores of diverse world religions convened for the "World Peace Summit," with a mission to establish a permanent UN religious advisory council. But they failed. The event, dominated by Hindu and Jaina clerics, had only a token presence of Muslims and Christians. Intentionally excluded from the gathering were Southern Baptists, the National Association of Evangelicals, and the Dalai Lama (because of pressure from the Red Chinese). The closing day, during a session on conflict resolution, a shoving match broke out! It took six security guards to break up what one witness called "a rugby scrum of mostly Far-Eastern clerics."
  This summit is simply another step in a plan to divest the United States of its sovereignty and to subject it, eventually, to socialist world rule.
