It is time to consider a "world police force." It is too obvious that the development
of peace and prosperity are now global forces. We can not allow countries the
so-called right to be repressive regimes, or absurd states. It's time to truly
recognize the rights of man.
So, perhaps it is time to consider splitting the United Nations into two groups:
One would be the developed and developing states with a penchant for
democracy and economic and political freedom, and the other block would the
failed states, by whatever measure. Then it would be easier to get things done
on an international scale. It would move the leaders of the failed states to either
vacate their positions or become enlightened.
It is absurd that Syria and Libya should have an equal voice as Malaysia and
Thailand. The first two states are repressive and obsessed with the glorification
of the leader, the second two are working, with varying and shifting degrees of
success, to pull their countries into the modern world.
It would be fairly simple thing to create a checklist to see which countries
belong to which group. And while in the short term the statist Europeans,
Japanese and some others would be included in the Developed group, ultimately,
they too would have to change.
But as in triage at a disaster scene, it is morally better to take care of those
worst off. Even if the failed states rose only to the level of Greece the world
would be so much better off.
So what would a list of failed states look like:
Of the First Order: Iraq, Iran, Libya, Algeria, Syria, Pakistan, Afghanistan,
North Korea, Burma, Cuba, Zimbabwe, Congo (Zaire), Rwanda, Burundi, Central
African Republic, Chad, Sudan, Somalia, Yemen, Haiti, Guatamala, Paraguay,
Liberia, Guinea Bissau, Cameroon, Belarus, and perhaps one or two others.
These countries are abominations. There is not one redeeming feature
about the governments or the cultures that support them. They are repressive,
impoverished, violent, lawless, dangerous (to those within and without) crackpot
regimes whose misguided, even, yes, evil, leaders have a total disregard for the
people whom they claim to lead. They are hemoragghing people and wealth.
The leaders are beyond corrupt. The leaders have not one regard for the rights
of man.
These leaders should have no right to speak at the United Nations and to
lecture the world about how wonderful they are and what they are doing for their
people and how they are keeping the United States at bay. They should have no
ambassadors to the United Nations. They should have no seats there. They
have no claim to any moral right to govern.
The developed world has but one course of action: to isolate, and then
disrupt and destroy these despotic regimes. Then enter into these countries and
rescue the unfortunate people who live there from further abuse. Even if that
means military invasion and occupation for a number of years.
