==History==
The term "United Nations" was widely used during [[World War II]] to denote the allied powers making war against Germany and Japan, but the actual UN was created in 1945. It was designed by the U.S. State Department. President [[Franklin D. Roosevelt]] envisaged "four policemen", Britain, United States, Soviet Union, and [[Republic of China]] to be the major forces on what later became the UN Security Council to enforce the peace worldwide. This was deemed a modern approach to replace the old [[spheres of influence]] as they were called during the age of Imperialism.

The UN was founded by communists and socialists sympathizing with Stalin. Soviet spy Alger Hiss helped found the UN. He gave the US one vote on the Security Council, and the Soviet Union three votes.
US Secretary of State Cordell Hull said at the time while selling the idea to Congress, "there will no longer be need for spheres of influence, for alliances, for balance of power, or any other of the separate alliances through which in the unhappy past the nations strove to safeguard their security or promote their interest."

The western military alliance of [[NATO]] began in 1949 and played a much greater role in US foreign policy commitments and decisions during the [[Cold War]] than the UN ever did. The one exception was the [[Korean War]], which was fought under UN auspices since the Soviet Union was boycotting the UN in 1950.

==The Secretary Generals==
The first UN secretary-general, Trygve Lie of Norway, was a socialist and Stalinist sympathizer. When Lie was the Minister of Justice in Norway, he told Lenin’s former right-hand man Leon Trotsky not to criticize Stalin or else he would be imprisoned and or kicked out of Norway. Lie eventually put him in prison, but later according to Stalin’s wishes exiled him to Mexico where one of Stalin’s hit men assassinated him by hitting his head with a pick ax in 1940. As secretary-general, he failed to maintain peace in the 1947 Kashmir conflict, the 1948 Arab-Israeli conflict, and the Korean War from 1950-53.
The second secretary-general, Dag Hammarskjold of Sweden, was a socialist who headed the Bank of Sweden, the oldest central bank in the world, even older than the Bank of England.. He refused to condemn Red China under Mao Zedong for invading Tibet and the USSR for crushing a revolt in Hungary. In 1961, when the Katanga province of Zaire tried to get its independence from the pro-Marxist government, he used UN troops to crush the independence movement.
The third secretary-general, U Thant of Burma, was a Marxist whose mentor was Burmese prime minister U Nu, who said in a 1948 speech, “If we now look back in history, we find that Stalin followed the right path”; together, they abolished private property in Burma and U Thant choose a former KGB officer to be his personal assistant. In 1970, the Associated Press released a dispatch from the UN which stated, “Secretary General U Thant praised Vladimir I. Lenin, founder of the Soviet Union, as a political leader whose ideals were reflected in the UN Charter.” So it should not be surprising that U Thant was very well liked by Soviet premier Nikita Khrushchev, whom he did not condemn for crushing Czechoslovakia, and did nothing to help John F. Kennedy handle the Cuban Missile Crisis. He failed to maintain peace in 1967 after the Six-Day Arab-Israeli War between Israel and its neighbors.
The fourth secretary-general, Kurt Waldheim, the future president of Austria, was a former Nazi infantry lieutenant who fought to help Adolf Hitler take over all of Europe. He did not care who ruled the world, whether it be Nazi Germany or the UN, it did not matter to him. He believed that mass murder was merely a means to a better socialist end. So it should not be surprising that he sat down and did nothing to prevent from 1975-79 Cambodia’s Pol Pot from conducting his mass murders; Waldheim actually sent the UNICEF to send supplies to Hanoi, Vietnam, which in turn was sent to Pol Pot so he can conduct the “killing fields”.
The fifth secretary-general, Javier Perez de Queller of Peru, was a socialist, who insisted on protecting the murderous regime of Pol Pot. He did nothing to make peace during the Iraq-Iran War and the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. After leaving his job, when he ran for president of Peru in the spring of 1995, he was surrounded by well-known communists who were running his campaign, even though his country was facing a Maoist insurgency.
The left argued that the reason the UN was inefficient was because of the security council split between the US and USSR, but now that the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991, the UN will be more efficient. Turned out, the United Nations has not left its totalitarian socialist roots.
The sixth secretary-general, Boutros Boutros-Ghali of Egypt, the former vice-president of Socialist International and former member of the Arab Socialist Union, along with Undersecretary-general for Peacekeeping Operations Kofi Annan, aided the Rwandan genocide. Kofi Annan would not allow Canadian general Romeo Dallaire to get his troops to seize Hutu weapons and thwart and extermination plan. Annan at one time ordered UN troops to withdraw from a school that held Tutsi refugees causing them to get murdered by the Hutu mobs. In his June 1992 report An Agenda for Peace, he wrote, “The time of absolute and exclusive sovereignty . . . has passed.”
After Kofi Annan of Ghana became the seventh secretary-general, he did nothing to prevent the 2000’s genocide in Sudan and sent UN troops to make peace in the Zaire, but instead, they were raping women as young as 11. During the ceremonies surrounding his acceptance of the Nobel Peace Prize in 2001, Annan said, “The sovereignty of nations must no longer be used as a shield for gross violations of human rights.” In his opening address to the fifty-third annual DPI/NGO (Department of Public Information/Non-Governmental Organization) Conference in 2006, Annan also said, “It has been said that arguing against globalization is like arguing against the laws of gravity.”
The eighth secretary-general, Ban Ki-Moon of South Korea, like Kofi Annan, is a global warming alarmist, and has criticized Dutch politician Geert Wilders for condemning Islam. He is also a sponsor of UN Agenda 21, a green socialism agenda for the 21st century meant to abolish private property.
