Obama’s Speech In Egypt
Tuesday, June 9, 2009

Much
has been made of President Barack Obama's "reconciliation"
speech in Cairo, Egypt, last week. For the most part, the American media
have focused on Obama's attempt to "repair" relations with
the Muslim nations of the world. For example, Obama referenced the Koran
five times, and the Bible only once. (It is noteworthy that one of the
Koranic references Obama used was a verse dedicated to Islamic Jihad,
in which Muslims are required to kill infidels--meaning those who are
not Muslims, of course. Not surprisingly, the vast majority of America's
major media failed to report this story. See the
WND report.
As
nonsensical and revolting as much of Obama's speech was, the most egregiously
dangerous statement he made in his Egyptian speech was another one that
all but a small portion of America's mainstream media bothered to report.
The sinister statement is as follows:
"Given
our interdependence, any world order that elevates one nation or group
of people over another will inevitably fail. So whatever we think of
the past, we must not be prisoners to it." (Barack Obama 06/04/2009,
Source: WhiteHouse.gov)
Like
his predecessors, George W. Bush, Bill Clinton, and George H.W. Bush,
Barack Obama envisions a global union, in which all nations are linked
commercially, governmentally, and militarily. Bush I called it a "New
World Order;" Bush II called it an "international order;"
Clinton often regurgitated Bush Sr.'s "New World Order" mantra;
and Barack Obama called it a "world order." Do people not
recognize that every President since Ronald Reagan (both Democrat and
Republican) has called for an international one-world order? Obama's
speech goes a step further, however.
In
calling for a "world order," Obama blatantly said "Given
our interdependence, any world order that elevates one nation . . .
over another will inevitably fail." Does everyone understand what
Obama is saying? In order for this new "world order" to materialize,
no individual nation can be preferred over another--not even our own.
In a word, no country can be allowed to maintain national sovereignty,
independence, or military superiority. All nations must be willing to
surrender their sovereignty and independence to the new "world
order." Furthermore, all nations must be willing to submit their
militaries to a new global military. Oh yes, my friend, all of this
is inferred in Obama's statement.
The
last half of Obama's statement is equally chilling: "Whatever we
think of the past, we must not be prisoners to it." In other words,
Americans must forget about the heritage and tradition of our past.
The ideas of national sovereignty and independence are archaic. The
notion of "America First" is passé. The principles
of constitutional government must be replaced with the international
principles of a new "world order."
In
this regard, it would not have mattered to a tinker's dam if John McCain
had been elected President instead of Barack Obama. I well remember
McCain repeatedly saying that one of the first things he would do after
becoming President would be to implement a new "League of Democracies."
In fact, look no further than to a speech McCain made to the Hoover
Institution. According to McCain, "The new League of Democracies
would form the core of an international order." (Source: John McCain
Addresses The Hoover Institution, CFR Publication, May 1, 2007)
At
the national level, both the Republican and Democratic parties are taking
the United States headlong into an international "New World Order."
The national news media is likewise culpable, as are the vast majority
of the Religious Right and most other religious entities, organizations,
and movements.
As
an example, outside of this column, how many warnings have you read
or heard regarding the abovementioned statement by Mr. Obama? I dare
say that many readers are learning of this statement for the very first
time as they read this column.
The
burning question facing the American people today is, are we going to
do nothing as these globalists who control our political and corporate
institutions sell our country into global tyranny?
Forget
Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, and Bill O'Reilly. They will do nothing
to resist. Forget Joel Osteen and Rick Warren. They, too, will raise
no voice of opposition. Forget Newt Gingrich. He is as much a part of
the problem as anyone. Ditto for virtually every other major Republican
in Washington, D.C.--with the exception of Ron Paul, of course. (At
the national level, only Sarah Palin seems to bring any of the right
instincts to the discussion, but she is desperately behind the curve
on this issue, and needs much education if she is to be an effective
voice on the subject.) Forget Nancy Pelosi and her fellow socialists
in the Democratic Party. They have never seen a Big Government proposal
that they did not love. And if they love big national government, think
how they will love big international government.
Forget
the TV news talk shows. With the exception of Lou Dobbs, they are all
too busy putting big bucks in their bank accounts to have time to worry
about something as insignificant (to them) as the surrender of our sovereignty
and independence. Forget the vast majority of today's pastors. They
are either totally ignorant or unconcerned on the subject, or too busy
fighting with their own carnal church members to provide the leadership
necessary to "rally the troops"--as did the patriotic clergymen
of Colonial America's "Black Regiment."
That
leaves you and me--and God, of course. But then again, God, guns, and
guts was all it took in 1776, wasn't it?
So,
while all of the attention of the "talking heads" was focused
on virtually everything else Obama said, the most diabolical and potentially
destructive statement that came from his mouth last week was all but
ignored.
