Little Known UN Quotes


Concerning the ICC:

"...nationhood as we know it will be obsolete; all states will recognize a single, global authority." - Strobe Talbott Deputy Secretary of State, 1994-2001.

UNESCO:

"In order to stabilize world population, it is necessary to eliminate 350,000 people a day. It is a horrible thing to say, but it's just as bad not to say it." - Oceanographer Jaques Cousteau Published in the Courier, a publication of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).

"Private land ownership ... contributes to social injustice.... Public control of land use is therefore indispensable." - United Nations "Habitat I" Conference Report, 1976.

"Secretary General Boutros Boutros-Ghali ... urged the [UN] to consider imposing its own taxes to become less dependent on the United States...." - Washington Times, January 16, 1996.

The United Nations was, and is a great institution; but we must be sure it stays on its noble course. Granted many of the above do not represent the entire UN as a whole but nevertheless; these thoughts are evident and prospering on the UN floor.

We must be prudent in all undertakings.
