Switzerland votes to end neutrality and independence
by Daniel New
(Switzerland) - In a close vote, the people of Switzerland
voted on March 3, 2002, to join the United Nations, ending fifty years of
neutrality. Under the Swiss system, both the People and the Cantons
(similar to our States) must approve such a fundamental change in
government. The Cantons voted 12-11 to join the United
Nations. Switzerland becomes the 190th Member, leaving only one
recognized State as a neutral observer, the Vatican.
Thus ends the sovereignty and the neutrality of Switzerland, last bastion
of Independence in the world.
But let it be noted that the Swiss People voted. Do you, as an
American, remember getting to vote on whether the United States of
America would join the United Nations? While I don't doubt that,
today, Americans probably would vote that way, due to the total dumbing
down of a generation raised on manipulated news and a generation that can
hardly remember when we were not in the U.N., the fact remains that we
were thrust into membership by a handful of extreme leftists who knew all
they needed to know about parliamentary procedure and black
tactics.
Do you know how it was that the United States ratified our membership in
the United Nations? Do your children know?
