There's no confusing that the United Nations has only one goal, and that is to make all the nations of the world one large united nation. (Funny how that's exactly what the Communists are spouting.) Which means we can kiss goodbye the sovereignty of the United States government and the rights of the people. Aahhh, but the UN is so much more up-to-date and more knowledgable than our Founding Fathers! We should all knuckle under and say, "Here, World! Come take our riches and our resources! Come be the beneficiary of the fruits of American Labor! We Americans only exist to be your servants!" If I'm incorrect about the jurisdiction of the World Court, let me offer another example. The US Senate has not yet ratified the so-called Genocide Convention because of the exact same premise. This convention also contains provisions that would force the extradition of US nationals to foreign courts for prosecution if certain "offenses" were to be committed. Don't be misled by those who say that the United Nations is the friend of the United States. (With friends like that, we don't need enemies.)
