Eighty years have passed since the United Nations’ founding meeting in San Francisco. It’s time for an assessment. Is the UN’s rosy self-description quoted above accurate? Is the United Nations saving us from the scourge of war, maintaining international peace and security, protecting human rights, etc., etc?
Granted, UN agencies do deliver some humanitarian aid to the world’s needy. Likewise, Al Capone funded soup kitchens; and Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman, the murderous Sinaloa drug lord, built schools and hospitals in Mexico.
Like Capone and Guzman, the UN practices “philanthropy” with other people’s money, extracted by force, threats, and intimidation — and it does so to cover up a multitude of crimes. Capone, Guzman, and others of their criminal ilk have had their media admen who portray them as noble Robin Hoods. However, none of them could hold a candle to the UN in terms of having a pack of media sycophants who perennially hide their heinous crimes and bathe them in the warm glow of sanctity. For decades, UN “peacekeepers” have gotten away with murder, rape, torture, sex trafficking, and other crimes — with no consequences. The UN regularly denounces “impunity” while practicing it with immunity. The rise in impunity worldwide is “politically indefensible and morally intolerable,” declared UN Secretary-General António Guterres on September 24, 2024. “We see this age of impunity everywhere — in the Middle East, in the heart of Europe, in the Horn of Africa,” the Hypocrite-in-Chief of the global dictators club proclaimed, while pointing his finger everywhere except at himself and the blue-helmeted criminals he has been protecting.
