On February 1, 1992 George Bush (Sr) addressed the General Assembly of the United Nations and stated: "It is the sacred principles enshrined in the United Nations charter to which the American people will henceforth pledge their allegiance." Patriotic Americans view Bush's statement as treasonous. George Bush also stood before the United States Congress and stated that the "New World Order" is the "rule of law". Perhaps what he meant to say was "rule of lawyers" because it is the lawyers and judges in America who are in fact implementing the "New World Order" through fraud. However, not all lawyers are aware of the ultimate plan of the global elite.

Just so we all know what terrible principles Bush was talking about, I post in toto the preamble to the Charter of the United Nations.

PREAMBLE

WE THE PEOPLES OF THE UNITED NATIONS DETERMINED

to save succeeding generations from the scourge of war, which twice in our lifetime has brought untold sorrow to mankind, and

to reaffirm faith in fundamental human rights, in the dignity and worth of the human person, in the equal rights of men and women and of nations large and small, and

to establish conditions under which justice and respect for the obligations arising from treaties and other sources of international law can be maintained, and

to promote social progress and better standards of life in larger freedom,

AND FOR THESE ENDS

to practice tolerance and live together in peace with one another as good neighbours, and

to unite our strength to maintain international peace and security, and

to ensure, by the acceptance of principles and the institution of methods, that armed force shall not be used, save in the common interest, and

to employ international machinery for the promotion of the economic and social advancement of all peoples,

HAVE RESOLVED TO COMBINE OUR EFFORTS TO ACCOMPLISH THESE AIMS

Accordingly, our respective Governments, through representatives assembled in the city of San Francisco, who have exhibited their full powers found to be in good and due form, have agreed to the present Charter of the United Nations and do hereby establish an international organization to be known as the United Nations.
--------
Such ideas as saving future generations from the sourge of war, reaffirming faith in fundamental human rights, and promoting social progress and better standards of life sure sound dangerous to me. After all, practicing tolerance and living together in peace doesn't help the United States, does it?

Googling the Bush quote, I get mainly right-wing and/or wacko sites, which quote only that sentence. I wonder what the full context was?

(Maybe our British posters will remember David Icke - "What if the Global Power Elite are part of these reptilian bloodlines, still controlling and ruling Planet Earth as their own private galactic fiefdom?")

I guess it's "promoting social progress" that they object to. If you don't believe there's such a thing as 'society', you certainly don't want the gummint promoting its progress.

If patriotic and caring citizens are determined to stop America's downward slide into "big brother" tyranny we need to think about what certain voices are saying, and call it what it is.

From that link:

"The world is governed by very different personages from what is imagined by those who are not behind the scenes."--- Benjamin Disraeli, first Prime Minister of England [sic]

This tendency to try to make a case by putting together a smorgasbord of out-of-context quotes isn't very convincing.

The Disraeli quote is actually from his novel 'Coningsby':

"A few years back we were applied to by Russia. Now, there has been no friendship between the court of St. Petersburg and my family. It has Dutch connections, which have generally supplied it; and our representations in favor of the Polish Hebrews, a numerous race, have not been very agreeable to the Czar. However, circumstances drew to an approximation between the Romanoffs and the Sidonias. I resolved to go myself to St. Petersburg. I had, on my arrival, an interview with the Russian Minister of Finance, Count Cancrin; I beheld the son of a Lithuanian Jew. The loan was connected with the affairs of Spain; I resolved upon repairing to Spain from Russia. I traveled without intermission. I had an audience immediately on my arrival with the Spanish Minister, Sefior Mendizabel; I beheld one like myself, the son of a Nuevo Cristiano, a Jew of Arragon. In consequence of what transpired at Madrid, I went straight to Paris to consult the President of the French Council; I beheld the son of a French Jew, a hero, an imperial marshal, and very properly so, for who should be military heroes if not those who worship the Lord of Hosts?...

The consequence of our consultations was that some Northern power should be applied to in a friendly and meditative capacity. We fixed on Prussia; and the President of the Council made an application to the Prussian Minister, who attended a few days after on our conference. Count Arnim entered the cabinet, and I beheld a Prussian Jew. So you see, my dear Coningsby, that the world is governed by very different personages from what is imagined by those who are not behind the scenes."

I'm not sure what Disraeli's point is. He was, of course, himself of Jewish heritage (although actually an Anglican - Jews were excluded from the UK parliament until 1858). I don't know if the speaker in the novel is supposed to be sympathetic or not. I guess I'll have to go read Coningsby now.

A few more quotes from Paul's source -

The Knights Templar is a secret society; they were the first international bankers. Today the Knights Templar is also part of another secret society, Freemasonry. Notice the use of the word “degree” in the Inns of Court definition above. The word “degree” is a secret society term which refers to the level to which the initiate has risen.

The initiate must take “blood oaths” in order to progress to higher levels of initiation. A friend of mine who was a 32 degree “Shriner” Freemason left the secret society because the blood oaths became unconscionable and repulsive to him. The blood oaths themselves imply or state that the initiate will suffer a most horrible death if he reveals the secrets of the lodge. Some men have reported being required to drink blood from a skull as part of a Masonic initiation. Many judges and lawyers are Freemasons. In fact, a very large number of civil servants, from judges to presidents, are members of secret societies such as Skull & Bones, Knights of Malta and Freemasonry.

According to the HANDBOOK OF MASONRY by Ronanyne, page 183: “You must conceal all the crimes of your brother Mason….and should you be summoned as a witness against a brother Mason be always sure to shield him. It may be perjury to do this, it is true, but you’re keeping your obligations.”

The following is the blood oath that “Shriners” take: “In willful violation whereof may I incur the fearful penalty of having my eyeballs pierced to thru center with a three edged blade, my feet flayed and forced to walk the hot sands upon the sterile shores of the red sea until the flaming Sun shall strike with a livid plague, and my Allah the god of Arab, Moslem and Mohammedan, the god of our fathers, support me to the entire fulfillment of the same.”

It is also interesting to note that former President George Bush (Sr) was knighted by the Queen of England. The founding fathers prohibited such “titles of nobility”. The question remains: Who was George Bush actually serving when he was President—We the People or the British Empire?

It was George Bush (Sr) who first publicly coined the expression “New World ORDER”. Both George Bush, Jr. and George Bush, Sr. are members of the infamous “Skull & bones” secret society, aka "The ORDER", which originally came from Germany. Adolph Hitler wrote "My New ORDER" after writing "Mein Kampf". George Bush's father, Prescott Bush, was also a Skull & Bones member along with Percy Rockefeller and Bush family business partners, the Harrimans. Their symbol is, in fact, a skull and crossbones—the symbol for drugs, poison, piracy, death and the Nazi's "Death's Head" battalion.

According to Dr. Leonard Horowitz, Prescott Bush joined John D. Rockefeller and the British Royal Family in sponsoring the eugenics initiatives that gave rise to Hitler’s racial hygiene programs. Prescott Bush was found guilty of trading with the enemy (the Nazis) during WWII. According to court records, the Rockefeller family and their Standard Oil Company supported Hitler more than they did the allies during WWII. In fact one judge declared Mr. Rockefeller guilty of treason. Dr. Gary Glum has also documented the insidious eugenics programs to create a "superior race", which were initially sponsored not by Adolph Hitler, but by the American elite (i.e., the Rockefeller, Carnegie, Harriman, Morgan, DuPont, Kellogg and Bush families).


George Bush (Sr) is an active participant in the CIA's MKUltra mind control programs.

That does it for me. I am selling my dollars (all three of them) and buying gold. Then I will line the walls and ceiling of my house with aluminum foil. I already stopped getting cable TV because I know they were listening to me through the coaxial lines.

The mistake in the Disraeli attribution - "first Prime Minister of England" - is maybe revealing. Disraeli is sometimes referred to as the first Jewish Prime Minister. I wonder if the person using the quote clumsily edited out 'Jewish', leaving the impression that he thinks British parliamentary history started in the nineteenth century.

Leaving 'Jewish' in, on the other hand, would have betrayed the fact that the wacky 'New World Order' global conspiracy theories are actually the anti-semitic 'Protocols of the Elders of Zion' global conspiracy theories, the various 'secret elite' global conspiracy theories, and the 'communist takeover' global conspiracy theories recycled with a different label.

Personally, I prefer Icke's 'extra-terrestrial reptiles' global conspiracy theory - it has a spark of originality.

Umberto Eco wrote a satire on this kind of nonsense -
Foucalt's Pendulum.

Wait a minute. These skeptical responses are merely proof that the New World Order's mind control devices are working:

'There is a worldwide conspiracy being orchestrated by an extremely powerful and influential group of genetically-related individuals (at least at the highest echelons) which include many of the world's wealthiest people, top political leaders, and corporate elite, as well as members of the so-called Black Nobility of Europe (dominated by the British Crown) whose goal is to create a One World (fascist) Government, stripped of nationalistic and regional boundaries, that is obedient to their agenda. Their intention is to effect complete and total control over every human being on the planet...

...Most people react with disbelief and skepticism towards the topic, unaware that they have been conditioned (brainwashed) to react with skepticism by institutional and media influences that were created by the Mother of All mind control organizations: The Tavistock Institute of Human Relations in London. Author and de-programmer Fritz Springmeier (The Top 13 Illuminati Bloodlines ) says that most people have built in "slides" that short circuit the mind's critical examination process when it comes to certain sensitive topics. "Slides", Springmeier reports, is a CIA term for a conditioned type of response which dead ends a person's thinking and terminates debate or examination of the topic at hand. For example, the mention of the word "conspiracy" often solicits a slide response with many people. (Springmeier has co-authored three books on trauma-based programming which detail how the Illuminati employs highly tuned and extrememly sophisticated Mind Control (MC) training programs that begin the programming process while the intended victim is still within the womb...' educate-yourself.org

I already have my windows and door covered with plastic sheeting and duct tape. Now you tell me to cover the walls and ceiling with aluminum foil. What should I do about the floors?

It's too late. The CIA already got to us in the womb. I'm sure that, otherwise, I'd be taking this seriously. Curse their cunning foresight!

Regarding the original link. The author goes through a seemingly painstaking etymology of attorney (going so far as to explain why there is a double t rather than only one - something irrelevant to the meaning he is trying to suggest) and gets the etymology wrong.

The prefix "a-" was not added to mean one, but rather to mean "to." In Old French, atorner meant, literally, "to turn to," but might be better translated as "to appoint." The past participle (which passed eventually to English as attorney) means "one who is turned to" or "one who is appointed." It evolved to mean "one who is appointed to act as an agent," a meaning it retains today (e.g. "power of attorney" or attorney in the sense of a lawyer).

Additionally, according to etymology online, the double t is not due to English grammar but due to a mistaken attempt at Latinize it.


What about bar? This etymology brings to mind faulty derivations (or, better, divinations) for obscenities meaning excrement and intercourse. It is unfortunate that the author doesn’t seem to realize the relatively recent invention of the acronym. I’ll let the interested read about the etymology here but it was not originally an acronym meaning “British accreditation registry.”


Why does either matter? I haven't the foggiest, but the author seems to think that his mythical etymology is important to his point, even though he later says he can’t confirm the “BAR” part, but I’m a bit lost as to what his point is other than babbling about conspiracy theories (I suspect this is actually several bits of writing pasted together)



Later on, he says that the elder President Bush was knighted and that such titles were prohibited by the Constitution. It is somewhat right that such titles are prohibited – they are prohibited while serving in a public office unless approved by Congress. Bush was not given an honorary knighthood until Dec. 20, 1993 – nearly a year after he left office (so he was not acting against the Constitution).

As for his comments before the UN, Google is so overloaded with the same few rants including nothing but this quote that I can’t find a broader transcript (or, for that matter, any confirmation of the snippet that isn’t essentially the same “essay”). I did find a larger portion of two of Bush’s speeches to Congress where he mentioned the "new world order" (here and here). In these two cases, he was talkign about the first Gulf War.

I'm beginning to wonder if the Bush quote is authentic. In the George Bush Presidential Library online, there's only one public paper available for February 1, 1992 - a news conference he gave with Boris Yeltsin, starting at 1.37pm in Camp David.

Bush made a speech to the UN Security Council on January 31, 1992. He strongly praised the peace-keeping role of the UN - but he didn't say anything like the quote at the top of this thread.

Googling the words without quotation marks, I came across several variations;

"It is those sacred principles enshrined in the UN Charter to which we must henceforth pledge our allegiance."

"It is the sacred principles enshrined in the United Nations charter to which the American people henceforth pledge their allegiance."

"My vision of a New World Order foresees a U.N. with a revitalized peacekeeping function. It is the sacred principles enshrined in the U.N. Charter to which we henceforth pledge our allegiance."

(I also found this - 'One section of the U.N. World Constitution states: "The age of nations must end...the governments of the nations have decided to order their separate sovereignties into one government to which they surrender their arms."' )

Bush spoke to the UN General Assembly in September 1992. He seems to have spoken to the General Assembly once a year.

In 1992, he spoke strongly in favour of international cooperation, and concluded with - 'At the threshold of a new century we can truly say a more peaceful, more secure, more prospering future beckons to us. And for the sake of our children and our grandchildren, and for the sake of those who perished during the cold war, and for the sake of every man, woman, and child who kept freedom's flame alive even during the darkest noon, let us pledge ourselves to make that future real. And let us pledge ourselves to fulfill the promise of a truly United Nations.' bushlibrary.tamu.edu

But still nothing resembling that quote.

September 1991, another fine-sounding speech - 'And now, for the first time, we have a real chance to fulfill the U.N. Charter's ambition of working ``to save succeeding generations from the scourge of war, to reaffirm faith in fundamental human rights, in the dignity and worth of the human person, in the equal rights of men and women and nations large and small to promote social progress and better standards of life in larger freedom.'' Those are the words from the charter. We will not revive these ideals if we fail to acknowledge the challenge that the renewal of history presents.' bushlibrary.tamu.edu

But nothing like that quote.

October 1990 - 'But the world also remains a hopeful place. Calls for democracy and human rights are being reborn everywhere, and these calls are an expression of support for the values enshrined in the United Nations Charter. They encourage our hopes for a more stable, more peaceful, more prosperous world...

...The world must know and understand: From this hour, from this day, from this hall, we step forth with a new sense of purpose, a new sense of possibilities. We stand together, prepared to swim upstream, to march uphill, to tackle the tough challenges as they come not only as the United Nations but as the nations of the world united.

And so, let it be said of the final decade of the 20th century: This was a time when humankind came into its own, when we emerged from the grit and the smoke of the industrial age to bring about a revolution of the spirit and the mind and began a journey into a new day, a new age, and a new partnership of nations.' bushlibrary.tamu.edu

Stirring stuff. He did use the word 'enshrined', but there's still no sign of that quote.

1989. A joke - '...let me share one story from one of the many sessions of the Security Council. I was the Permanent Representative of the United States. I was 45 minutes late getting to the meeting and all 45 minutes were filled by the first speaker to take the floor. And when I walked in and took my seat, the speaker paused and said with great courtesy: "I welcome the Permanent Representative of the United States, and now, for his benefit, I will start my speech all over again from the beginning." [Laughter]' bushlibrary.tamu.edu

Unless Bush gave a secret address to the General Assembly not listed in the Presidential library, that quote is looking very fishy.

The closest match seems to be in that Security Council speech - 'It was just one year ago that the world saw this new, invigorated United Nations in action as this Council stood fast against aggression and stood for the sacred principles enshrined in the U.N. Charter. And now it's time to step forward again, make the internal reforms, accelerate the revitalization, accept the responsibilities necessary for a vigorous and effective United Nations. I want to assure the members of this Council and the Secretary-General, the United Nations can count on our full support in this task.'

Bar. There are two barriers which may be thought of as the bar 1) A barrister is someone who has been called to the bar. Once the candidate is qualified he or she is called to the bar in a ceremony at their Inn of Court ( one of the four societies they must belong to and which regulates their professional conduct ) . I can't recall whether all the other Inns still have a wooden bar or barrier between the dais where the Benchers (governors of the Inn ) dine and where the students do; I believe Lincoln's Inn and the others do, though mine,Inner Temple doesn't now, but the procedure is that one of the Benchers 'moves the call' of the candidate who steps forward to the edge of the dais or the bar , bows to the Treasurer (Senior governor), and is then deemed 'called'. So they are (Lincoln's Inn et al. ) or once were (Inner Temple) literally called to that bar.

2) In the courts themselves,even modern ones, there is a barrier, a bar, between the seating of the barristers and the area where the clerk, judge and officials sit. In the High Court and the old courts at the Central Criminal Court there are seats for barristers on both sides of this bar. The seats on the 'judges's side' of the bar are for Queen's Counsel, the most eminent barristers, and the ones on the general side are for the other barristers. The QCs are called the 'inner bar' and the others the 'utter or outer bar'. This bar is the closest that most counsel can get to the bench when addressing the court.Nowadays the front row of counsels' seats is right next to it so they need to come to the bar to speak because they are already there [You should understand that barristers in court cannot walk around when addressing the judge or jury, they must do so standing still, from counsels' row]. So, even today they are speaking at the bar.If the judge summmons them to come forward if, say, they are waiting at the back of the courtroom, they may come forward but only as far as the bar .

No doubt the American lawyers adopted the word bar, meaning theprofession, just as we did but without maintaining the physical 'bar' which gives it its name.

Attorney in England means only a special kind of agent acting in a person's stead in a particular business or activity, or generally, who is empowered to do all that that person could legally do himself and who has absolute discretion in how the matters are conducted i.e. they have power of attorney.

[I still like the fanciful acronym of BAR in Paul's link though ! ]
