another fifteen worldwide
organizations that carry out the U.N.’s work and employ an army of
roughly 40,000 workers.
    The two most familiar operating bodies in the U.N. are the Security
Council, where every member nation has the right of veto, and the
General Assembly where the majority rules. Frankly, that majority of
member nations are not America’s friends and allies.
    Largely, the U.N. is divided into two camps, the industrialized
nations of the world and the developing, or Third World nations. The
latter group sees the mission of the U.N. as “spreading the wealth
around a little” seeking financial aid and development money from the
more advanced industrial countries.
    One of those advanced industrial countries is of course America. Of
the U.N.’s General Operating budget, 25% of it is paid by only one
of the U.N.’s 192 member nations—the United States. There are 135
members, who all get a vote in the General Assembly, but contribute a
meager 1% to pay the U.N.’s bills. The annual budget for the United
Nation’s operation in NYC is $7 plus Billion.
    Since its beginning, the U.N. has grown astronomically. At The
Hague in the Netherlands sits the International Court of Justice, a
full-blown U.N. operation. The fifteen justices who hear cases that
involve international law are all elected by the General Assembly. I am
willing to bet not one America can name any of the 15 faceless justices.
    The court rules on such weighty controversies as crimes against
humanity to matters involving genocide and war crimes. In the wrong
hands, the U.N.’s International Court of Justice could decide that
America’s pursuit of a terrorist enemy with a drone attack anywhere
in the world was a war crime and a U.S. government official could
conceivably be put on trial. If an American drone strike caused civilian
casualties, could the incident be labeled a genocide crime with military
or government officials prosecuted at the U.N.’s International Court
of Justice?
    The World Court is but the first in a lengthy list of U.N. Agencies
operating all over the world. Here is a fact worth noting. Although
America pays a majority of the U.N.’s bills, few of the organizations
operate within New York at the U.N. Headquarters, let alone anywhere inside our nation’s borders.
    For example, the U.N.’s Food and Drug Organization and U.N.
Fund for Agricultural Development are both headquartered in Rome.
The U.N.’s Civil Aviation Department is in Canada. UNESCO, the
United Nations Education, Scientific and Cultural Organization, is
headquartered within the shadow of Paris’ Eiffel Tower. Offices for
the U.N. Atomic Energy Commission and U.N. Office for Industrial
Development are located in Vienna. Madrid, Spain is home to the
U.N. office of International Tourism.
    Geneva, Switzerland houses the U.N. office of the International
Labor Organization, the U.N. International Telecommunications
Union, the U.N. High Commission for Refugees and the U.N.’s
World Health Organization that outlawed the use of D.D.T. back in
the 1960s (a decision that has cost millions of lives, to this day, in
developing nations).
    Other Geneva offices include the World Intellectual Property
Organization, the World Meteorological Association and the U.N.
World Trade Organization. But before leaving Switzerland, we cannot
forget the U.N.’s Postal Union in Berne. With so many U.N. offices
already in Switzerland, is there any reason the entire U.N. operation
should not be moved there? This would allow the Swiss to carry the
financial burden.
    The United States has managed to land only a handful of U.N.
global operations. The largest monetary organization of the United
Nations located in Washington, D.C. is the International Monetary
Fund. This means if the U.N. has a money problem, the IMF is based
near the center of America’s monetary power. Then of course, there
is the World Bank. Few realize that the World
