Hi everyone,

Today I am posting an article by Joan Veon posted at World Net Daily. This writer is an expert on the New World Order and reports on the meetings of those involved in the movement. Take a long look at this article. I believe it is truly one to think about. Most interesting is the report on those from the Bush Administration and Congressional leaders who participated in the meetings in Davos, Switzerland.

The one world government is going to be set up and the Anti-Christ will be its leader. Keep looking up! I believe the Lord could return for his church at any moment. Are you readY?

Daniel 2:41-44

41 And whereas thou sawest the feet and toes, part of potters' clay, and part of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; but there shall be in it of the strength of the iron, forasmuch as thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay.
42 And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken.
43 And whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay.
44 And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever.


Integrating the world

DAVOS, SWITZERLAND ? Yearly, the powerbrokers of the world meet at the World Economic Forum in the little ski resort of Davos, Switzerland. There for one week among the breathtaking majesty of the Swiss Alps, they come to hear the world's foremost political and economic minds discuss how they see the state of the world.

In the last five years, there has been a new dimension to their deliberations as the CEOs of the world's leading corporations have undertaken to partner with the United Nations in helping to solve the world's problems of education, lack of clean water, HIV-AIDS and improving the lives of poor people around the world.

For the last 34 years, the World Economic Forum has sought to set the agenda and provide ideas for CEOs to ponder. Throughout its existence, the Forum has established itself and its reputation for bringing the right set of people at the right time to discuss the key issues of the day.

As a result, it is considered one of the most important meetings ? one that you don't want to miss. It should be noted that the World Economic Forum is a non-governmental organization with the United Nations and, as such, helps to spread the philosophy of the U.N. as the world's foremost powerbrokers.

Yearly, the WEF provides participants with a book that contains the biography of all those in attendance. I have found ? as I have tallied the various organizations and schools that the participants are part of and have graduated from ? that about 10 percent of those attending form an "inner core" of people who foster world government, which some describe as "an open society" or an "interdependent world."

They are members of the Royal Institute for International Affairs, the Council on Foreign Relations, the Tri-Lateral Commission and other organizations such as the Aspen Institute and the Prince of Wales International Business Leaders Forum. Furthermore, most of them have been schooled at Oxford, Yale, Harvard, Cambridge and Princeton, as well as the London School of Economics, which upholds socialism and the tenets of communism ? open borders and world government through control.

This year, President Bill Clinton opened the 5-day conference that offers more than 190 workshops and sessions. Vice President Dick Cheney addressed the plenary on Saturday. Five members of the Bush administration, including Attorney General John Ashcroft, are here along with Sens. Saxby Chambliss, Gordon Smith, Orrin Hatch and Richard Shelby. Others include Securities Exchange Commission Chairman William Donaldson, Iraqi administrator L. Paul Bremer, four Democratic and five Republican congressmen. All total, they will participate 53 times.

What I have found, as I have covered the last six meetings, is that the ideas that flow on this level are totally different from those of Joe Average. On the local level, we are made to feel that the nation-states are divided and that the world is functioning as it did 100 years ago. However, that is not so. On this level, a corporation can be more powerful and have more income than Third World countries. Furthermore, over the last 55 years, the economic, political, trade and communication barriers between countries have been torn down, thus making it possible for the world to integrate.

During this time, international organizations were established: the United Nations, the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund, the World Trade Organization and the International Criminal Court, to name a few. With the war on terrorism, cooperation between intelligence agencies and police forces worldwide has enhanced integration on that level. These CEOs think in terms of transnational because that is how they operate ? no borders. The concepts and ideas discussed here are not normally found in the local or even national newspapers. In fact, I am sure these concepts are foreign to those reading them.

Even our own government is global in their thinking and policies. When President Clinton addressed the Forum on Wednesday, he said:


All of human history is a story of increasing contact. We move from isolation to interdependence to integration to an environment of shared benefits and responsibilities and values. Right now, globally, we have interdependence. We are struggling to get the integration that most of you want to lead the world in that direction. Our job is to move the world from interdependence to an integrated environment with shared benefits and responsibilities.


In April 2003, Clinton told students at the University of Miami that the "challenge of the current generation would be to move from interdependence to integration" which is what he said in Davos. What is he talking about? He is saying that the walls are down and we are dependent on one another, but we are not yet one, which is integration.

I bumped into Congressman Barney Frank and asked what he wanted to accomplish in Davos, and he said he wanted to get the message to the world's top business leaders and bankers that he is prepared to cooperate with worldwide economic integration under the right terms of trade which includes banning child labor and the right of working people to bargain collectively." He was referring to the WTO trade negotiations that the Bush administration is involved in which call for the total elimination of all trade barriers and export subsidies.

In a workshop on China, led by Commerce Secretary Donald Evans, he pointed out President Bush has been to China twice and he fully supports China's integration into the global market. Corporations are able to make large profits by moving operations there. Several on the panel testified about those opportunities. One Asian businessman said, "Chinese assets in 2004 is good monkey business." This year is their Year of the Monkey.

Now why is China so profitable? It is no secret that their people are being paid slave-labor wages to work in factories. With 1.4 billion people, their slave-labor benefits all the countries of the world, thus undermining economies with higher paid employees that are forced to downsize, outsource, privatize and reduce wages. You see, in a world without borders you can do that. Currently there are 200 million Chinese who need to be absorbed into the global workforce. This equates to finding jobs for the entire U.S. or European workforce! In America, we are confronted with the loss of steel, manufacturing and textiles moving overseas. In January, Levi Strauss announced ? after 150 years of doing business in America ? they were moving their last U.S. plant to China.

Commerce Secretary Don Evans said with excitement that the "U.S. is simply trying to create conditions for long term monetary growth. Those conditions that have made the U.S. the most important economic engine in the world ? that is the key focus in China."

Wednesday U.S. Attorney General John Ashcroft met in a closed-door session, and on Thursday he delivered his address to the plenary. He defined terrorism as a "global threat not limited by international or geographic borders." He went on to say, "None of the nations here can defeat terrorism alone. It was difficult for the U.S. to come to the realization that we could not do it alone. We are incapable of having the kind of success alone that we could have working together to preserve a format of exchange and freedom." Furthermore, Mr. Ashcroft said the United States was pleased to "reaffirm the U.S. commitment to the types of shared values the United Nations, the Organization of American States, the European Union, the Group of Eight and a variety of other institutions provide."

What does all of this point out? There is a "looking up," if you will, to international institutions for answers instead of the individual nation-state acting independently as they have in the past.

If we look at the United Nation's charter, it is not based on the U.S. Constitution that lays out what a republic is, but is based on the USSR constitution. As such, the underlying philosophy of a world dominated by international organizations is democracy. Democracy is where the majority rules vs. every individual having a voice.

Even Secretary-General Kofi Annan told CEOs, "Governments are collectively the custodians of our common life on this planet ? a life we all share." The message in Davos is clear: We are moving from interdependency to integration.
