UN Needs the Earth Constitution to Deal with World Criminals

UNITED NATIONS, 29 Jul 2024

25 Jul 2024 – As we watch helplessly, violators of international law go free, unable to be arrested by the UN, the International Court of Justice (ICJ, “World Court”), or the International Criminal Court (ICC).  Leaders of Bully nations break the Law with impunity. There is no world federal enforcement to protect the citizenry.

We are all world citizens by birth with certain inalienable rights per the Declaration of Human Rights and the Earth Constitution.

The leaders of Bully nations have too often felt free to overthrow weaker governments, or invade militarily. They have used illegal sanctions to pressure weaker governments to submit. Sanctions are a form of indirect murder when a nation’s population is denied needed products and services for survival — such as needed medical supplies, etc.

The leaders of the US, NATO and Israel are on the top of the list for many of these deadly violations of Law and Order.  But other countries such as Russia, China and Iran, too, have mocked international law and violated universal basic human rights.

The Earth Constitution’s World Judiciary System should be reviewed by the UN General Assembly and compared to the UN Charter which lacks adequate means for enforceable world law. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights cannot be enforced due to the inadequate UN Charter.

What to do?  The Center for UN Constitutional Research (CUNCR), a leading think tank based out of Brussels, has pointed out that the UN has yet to conduct a legally required Charter Review under Article 109. According to CUNCR the UN Charter is treaty-based, hence unreliable; a more reliable geopolitical system will require a world constitution.

The World Constitution & Parliament Association (WCPA), via the Earth Constitution Institute (ECI), offers a Two Track strategy to create a new world federal governing structure designed to end global anarchy and war itself. A Provisional World Parliament is being developed with 1000 Electoral Districts to represent “we, the people” (House of Peoples). Simultaneously an attempt is being made to join forces with the UN General Assembly (House of Nations) using the authority of the Earth Constitution for a “new UN”.

It is hard to imagine ending war or eliminating the nuclear nightmare until the geopolitical system adopts a new judiciary and enforcement system such as outlined in the Earth Constitution. Leaders of Bully nations currently mock the Law, and are unlikely to change their aggressive patterns until there is the equivalent of world federal marshal or police services to uphold the Law. No one, not even the leader of a nation, should be above the Law.
