The '''United Nations''' is a [[globalism|globalist]] organization of countries all over the world, originally created to facilitate cooperation in [[international law]], international security, economic development, and [[human rights]].  It was founded in 1945 at the signing of the United Nations Charter by 51 countries, replacing the [[League of Nations]], founded in 1919. The UN currently has 193 members, including almost all the countries in the world. Non-members include [[Taiwan]] and [[Vatican City]].

==Record of the Secretary-Generals==

When the first UN secretary-general, Trygve Lie of Norway, a Stalinist sympathizer, 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 pickax in 1940.<ref>http://www.un.org/apps/news/infocus/trygvie-lie.asp#.WVBpUoWcE2w</ref> As secretary-general, he failed to maintain peace in the 1947 Kashmir conflict, the 1948 Arab-Israeli conflict, and the Korean War from 1950-1953.

The second secretary-general, Dag Hammarskjold of Sweden, former head of the Bank of Sweden, the oldest central bank in the world, even older than the Bank of England, refused to condemn Red China under Mao Tse-tung for invading Tibet and the USSR for crushing a revolt in Hungary, and 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.<ref>https://www.thenewamerican.com/reviews/opinion/item/23064-socialist-in-chief-a-history-of-the-un-secretaries-general</ref>

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”;<ref>http://www.peacekey.com/1-1-a/UN_Web/1_UN_Book/The_Fearful_Master_10.htm</ref> together, they abolished private property in Burma and U Thant choose a former KGB officer to be his personal assistant. U Thant was known for admiring Vladimir Lenin.”<ref>https://www.ourrepubliconline.com/Author/138</ref> 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, and he did not care who ruled the world, whether it be Nazi Germany or the UN, it did not matter to him so long as there was a one-world government. 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”.<ref>http://www.nytimes.com/books/98/12/06/specials/shawcross-mercy.html</ref><ref>https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/opinions/1979/11/18/the-politics-of-famine-in-cambodia/81f0849e-9d1a-493c-b92a-aa00a9d3b1db/?utm_term=.239d3e95fc5d</ref>

The fifth secretary-general, Javier Perez de Queller of Peru, who insisted on protecting the murderous regime of Pol Pot,<ref>http://www.upi.com/Archives/1985/01/28/UN-Secretary-General-Javier-Perez-de-Cuellar-took-his/4605475736400/</ref> did nothing to make peace during the Iraq-Iran War. 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.

===Arab-Israel dispute===

===Arab-Israel dispute===

The UN has taken a one-sided approach to issues relating to the [[Israel]]-Arab conflict. Israel has consistently been singled out by the UN for uniquely critical treatment. In 1975 the General Assembly passed a resolution declaring that "Zionism is racism",<ref>[http://domino.un.org/UNISPAL.NSF/a06f2943c226015c85256c40005d359c/761c1063530766a7052566a2005b74d1!OpenDocument 16/12/1991, A/RES/46/86, Elimination of racism and racial discrimination/Zionism]</ref> and UN-sponsored meetings supposedly opposing [[racism]] have criticized Israel (which grants equal political and religious rights to Arabs) while suppressing all criticism of those Arab countries (where non-Muslims are second-class citizens and [[anti-Semitism]] enjoys state support).

Unlike other refugee groups, the Palestinian Arabs have their own agency within the United Nations, and are beneficiaries of special events such as an "International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People."<ref>[http://www.un.org/depts/dhl/palestinian/ UN Web Site for International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People, retrieved June 29, 2007]</ref> Israel was excluded from membership in any of the UN's regional groups until 2000. In effect, this meant Israel was forbidden from serving on UN bodies such as the Security Council. Israel's recent permission to participate more fully within the UN as a member of the Western European and Others regional group is temporary and subject to renewal. Israel is allowed to participate only in the New York operations of the UN and is excluded from the UN offices in Geneva, Nairobi, Rome, and Vienna which handle such issues as human rights and arms control. Censure of Israel has apparently been instituted as a routine agenda item for various UN bodies such as the Human Rights Council. The 1975 Resolution 3379 qualified Zionism as a form of racism (later revoked with Resolution 4686).
