Below the surface of public attention, internationalists have been working for decades to build the United Nations into an all- powerful world government. In this carefully documented study, William F. Jasper shows that, with the United Nations, the American people are being offered what amounts to poison disguised as candy. From all directions we hear that global problems require global solutions which means, we are told, that America must surrender more authority to the United Nations. Mr. Jasper exposes that power grab, one of the greatest "trust me" schemes in all of history, as totally corrupt. Behind the humanitarian pretexts, he demonstrates a much more sinister agenda at work. In The United Nations Exposed, the author offers readers an incredible treasure of understanding of what is happening to America — how and by whom. But most importantly, Mr. Jasper concludes his expose by explaining how responsible Americans can use an understanding of the threat to preserve freedom.

At that time, Americans stood at a crossroads, facing great danger. Today, Americans face a different but in many ways even greater danger — in large part because too few of us understand the threat. This book is intended for those who want to know the worst and by knowing the worst will want to take responsible steps to see that the worst does not happen. Another great statesman, the Englishman Edmund Burke, wisely observed: "The people never give up their liberties but under some delusion." As William F. Jasper establishes in this book, the American people are the target of an incredibly well organized campaign of deception. That deception is designed to rob each of us of our heritage of freedom and build what would inevitably become an Orwellian global tyranny. Determined to contribute what he could to prevent that from happening, Mr. Jasper has tapped his more than 25 years of experience studying the United Nations and subversive organi- zations to provide us an incredible tool. Not since Gary Allen's None Dare Call It Conspiracy (1972) has one book provided so much documented perspective to help Americans grapple with dangerous and cleverly orchestrated misconceptions. As Mr. Jasper clearly demonstrates, the danger we are speaking of does not spring from the United Nations itself. For the moment, at least, the UN is still largely a paper tiger. Instead, the danger comes from the very serious plans and actions of powerful elites, particularly American elites. These internationalists see the UN as their primary vehicle for gaining unrestrained power. Below the surface of public atten- IX tion, they have been working for decades to disarm America and build the United Nations into an all-powerful world government. We are now facing the culmination of their subversive schemes. In this carefully documented study, Mr. Jasper shows that with the United Nations the American people are being offered what amounts to poison disguised as candy. From all directions we are being propagandized that "global problems require global solu- tions." And we are told this means that we have to give more power to the UN. Mr. Jasper exposes that power grab — one of the greatest "trust me" schemes in all of history — as totally corrupt. Terrorists R Us In The United Nations Exposed, William Jasper helps us all con- front fundamental facts so we can step back and question the received wisdom. For example, why should we expect that justice can be served by giving supreme power to an organization that warmly embraces the most murderous regimes in all history? The men who gave us our Constitution had a profound under- standing of history and a resulting deep distrust of human nature. They designed a system of government that was based not on confidence in men but on a recognition that not even the best of men, let alone the worst, could be "trusted" with power. They designed a system of checks and balances to impede the improper ambitions of men to seek and abuse power over others. The United Nations embodies few of those checks and balances. It recognizes no authority greater than itself and what serves the purportedly noble purposes of the UN, as interpreted by the UN. Has human nature changed since our nation was founded? Has experience in the recent, deadly 20th century given us reason to now have confidence that smiling, well-spoken leaders can be trusted with enormous power? Of course not! In this book, Mr. Jasper gives us plenty of reasons not just for caution but for outright alarm at the "trust me" schemes proposed. At UN conferences, as Mr. Jasper has observed firsthand, the atmosphere is decidedly anti-American. Fidel Castro regularly receives enthusiastic ovations at UN functions, as do other sim- x ilarly oppressive dictators. As another indication of the anti-free- dom mind-set at the UN, consider that Sam Nujoma, the former terrorist leader of SWAPO, who is now the UN-installed president of Namibia, was selected to be honorary co-chair for the UN Millennium Summit of World Leaders in New York. Expecting an empowered UN to dispense global justice is like inviting the criminals to join the police force, the prosecution, and the judiciary in order to stamp out crime. Mr. Jasper shows us that behind the humanitarian rhetoric, a much more sinister agenda is at work, the agenda of a highly organized cabal that every responsible American needs to understand. In The United Nations Exposed, William Jasper shines a powerful spotlight on that agenda. After years of reporting and research on this topic, Mr. Jasper is uniquely qualified to write this book (see "About the Author," page 353). He shows indisputably, in the UN proponents' own words, that their real agenda is world government, whether they deceptively call it world governance (same definition), or the international rule of law. Mr. Jasper also shows that those who are working to empower the UN fully realize that they cannot sell their desired "revolution in political arrangements" on its merits. They have to deceive and are quite willing to do so to obtain the power they seek. The evidence of such arrogant duplicity alone should inspire any prudent American to withdraw all trust and seek different leadership. The subversive drive to empower the UN is succeeding primarily because most Americans neither perceive the danger nor the direction from which the threat is coming — we are being betrayed from within our own camp. The tough reality, one that most otherwise informed Americans have yet to recognize, is that many of our top leaders, despite their smiles and nice-sounding words, are up to their eyeballs in advancing this subversive revolution. The main threat does not come from the plans of petty bureaucrats or wide-eyed radicals or even as a Communist plot from abroad. It comes from XI within. And that circumstance makes the threat much more dan- gerous and difficult to combat. Fortunately, Mr. Jasper doesn't just leave us with a horrible problem. In the last chapter of The United Nations Exposed, the author explains what responsible, freedom-loving Americans can and must do to escape a looming tyranny. Unique Contribution In this major expose, William Jasper has accomplished something truly unique and important. Throughout his book, he demonstrates that it is American elitists — in particular members of the New York-based Council on Foreign Relations — who are pulling the strings and orchestrating the "consensus" for empowering the United Nations. In that work, they are amply supported by associated think tanks and foundations. If one understands that the United Nations was designed and brought to life by the Council on Foreign Relations,
