HOUSE VOTES TO WITHDRAW FROM THE U.N. While the Utah House of Representatives passed a resolution urging the U.S. Congress to consider with- drawing the United States from the United Nation, the Bush administration’s new budget includes a $1.2 billion, 30-year loan to renovate the aging United Nations head- quarters and build a new annex. State Department spokesman Richard Boucher said the loan request was a “practical way to move forward” with U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan’s plan to renovate and modernize the U.N. headquarters. I’m sure he did! The loan to fund the U.N. Capital Master Plan still must win approval by Congress and the U.N. General Assembly. There will be a 5.54% interest rate, which is to be paid by all U.N. member States. The U.N. General Assembly will approve, I’m sure. Where else could Kofi-Annan get $1.2 billion to renovate the U.N. building in New York? As for Congress, I don’t know what they will do. Maybe if
they knew that homosexual – rights groups are mobilizing support
for a landmark United Nation’s resolution that would classify
abuse on the basis of sexual orientation as In 2003, when the resolution was first introduced to the U.N. Human Rights Commission, the San Francisco International Gay and Lesbian Human Rights Commission (IGLHRC) called it “a historic opportunity to advance [homosexual] issues in international human rights law! The International Gay and Lesbian Human Rights Commission said
the I believe the Utah House of Representatives has it right. The U.S. needs to withdraw from the U.N. Their resolution passed 42 –33. It now goes to the Utah Senate. Congressman Ron Paul who spoke to the Utah House and Senate has proposed for several years in the U.S. Congress his American Sovereignty Restoration Act (H.R. 1146), which urges the U.S. to with draw from the U.N. “The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and he
delighteth in his way.”
