Henry Kissinger made news yesterday in a Wall Street Journal piece warning that the quest for a New World Order was hitting some bumps in the road. Yes, this is the same New World Order that Christians have been warning of in books and DVDs and even VHS tapes for many decades. The globalist desire for a New World Order is pretty much old hat to older Christians. The world elites started to come clean on this concept a while ago and obviously Henry Kissinger has no problem with laying it clearly on the table.
I had written in a past post that the major roadblock to a New World Order were Christians in America and Conservatives in America who know that in order for a New World Order to come about the old world order has to end.......uh, that would be us in America. Our borders have to be open, our Constitution must become null and void, families must give their authority to the state which will educate them in a sterile and atheistic environment.
Here are some of Henry Kissinger's thoughts.....fundamentalist armies are building a caliphate, Iraq and Afghanistan are in trouble and Russia and China might become problems to us. I think that Henry might have been reading this blog over the last five years but it was disconcerting that he chose not to use the word Islamic.
Kissinger applauded the good effort made by Western nations with their "amalgam of American idealism and traditional European concepts of statehood and balance of power" but he argues that other areas of the world never quite cozied up to this strategy and thus a new concept is necessary.
Kissinger gives three failings of the current world order. Europe has been trying to transcend the nation-state concept with a soft power based on ideals while in the Middle-East everyone just ignores boundaries and in the Far East states still hold to their own borders but that in itself may cause future confrontations. Kissinger adds to this the gloablization of the world's economy that actively works against states trying to solidify their independence. He concludes with a paradox in that there are so many organizations whose primarary purpose is to bring problems to the table that there is no one mechanism in place that can actually do that.
Kissinger gives his recommendations for solving these problems and they revolve around the United States which is where I began this post. We see the same problem for a New World Order but our conclusions are different. He treds softly in this area but the hints are there. America must come to grips on its need for a "comprehensive geopolitical strategy" and determine whether our traditions, conservative values and Christian Faith are an asset or an obstacle. He doesn't use these words, the New World Order people have not quite become that transparent. The future of the New World Order essentially lies in the battle within the Republican Party for one side will give in on this and the other will not.
