Organizations such as the Council on Foreign Relations and the World Health Organization are using the public's fear of pandemics to justify the creation of an international medical bureaucracy. Many people who desire such a global organization attended an October 2009 symposium at which speakers repeated the false contention that pandemics created by novel diseases, such as the swine flu or the bird flu, pose a dire threat to the world. This fear mongering is a key part of the strategy to justify an international medical authority. People who are afraid will more easily accept the suggestion that the only way to respond to a pandemic is with a global response where individual nations surrender their national sovereignty.

This Was Wilson's main reason. He wanted world peace. The article here has nothing to do with it, but it shows that these efforts were happening even back then. *Source:

"Locarno (a European Collective Security Agreement) represents an attempt to arrive at the same end by stages, by treaties and local regional pacts which are permeated with the spirit of the Geneva Protocol, these to be constatly supplemented, until at last, within the freamework of the League of Nations, they are absorbed by one great world convention guaranteeing world security and peace by the enforcing of the rule of law in interstate life"

Clarification on the Church Quote: “Our Commission held its first full meeting in September, 1941, just after the promulgation of the Atlantic Charter. We immediately launched a campaign to educate United states public opinion for the need for world organization. Most of the protestant churches for the country set up study groups on world order. The commission conducted a “national missions on world order” which took leading ministers and laymen to principal cities of the United States.” JFD War or Peace Page 34 ✅

[Use last to show why they shifted to another front] From Empire to Community-Amitai Etzioni Instead, many liberals seek to rely on the Wilsonian fantasy of democra- tizing the world to make it peaceful, a very attractive idea but also a dangerously deluding and dis- tracting idea, which, we shall see, cannot be relied on to uphold even a minimal level of global law and order in the foreseeable future. ✅

In short, a key source of legitimation for the new global architecture is that it will not tolerate mass killing, whether by WMD or by genocide, thus pro- viding the very first element of a state on the global level—a measure of security. The new global archi- tecture thus will draw on replacing respect for na- tional sovereignty with a growing respect for a human good—the right to live, whatever one’s na- tionality. This is a much more compelling standard for action than the enforcement of a whole slew of human rights. The list of these rights is too long (and yet some argue not long enough) and too un- clear to justify forceful intervention in the internal affairs of other countries at this stage in the devel- opment of the Global Safety Authority and the Unit- ed Nations. This standard does apply, however, for fighting terrorism and deproliferation, and increas- ingly to pacification and humanitarian inter- ventions, and—one day—to general arms reduc- tion. replacing national rights with human rights ✅

But what about a worldwide “we”? Are not communities typically defined by their sepa- ration from some other people? Can there be a “we” without a “they”? My response is that the new “they” are weapons of mass destruction and pandemics; they fully qual- ify as enemies of humanity. 319 ✅

...I can envision a world of perhaps twenty re- gional communities, further grouped into a smaller number of supraregional ones, crowned by a Global Authority and a global civil society. It would have many of the features of a nation, often defined as a community ensconced in a state. That is, it would not merely have the powers of a state but also a core of shared values, and it would command a measure of loyalty from the world’s citizens. These features are essential if what may be called a Global Nation is to be able to contain conflict and legiti- mately impose burdens on some parts of the citi- zenry for the benefit of others. 324

America's Imperial Ambition 2002 The recasting of sovereignty is paradoxical. On the one hand, the new grand strategy reaffirms the importance of the territorial nation-state. After all, if all governments were accountable and capable of enforcing the rule of law within their sovereign territory, terrorists would find it very difficult to operate. The emerging Bush doctrine enshrines this idea: governments will be held responsible for what goes on inside their borders. On the other hand, sovereignty has been made newly conditional: governments that fail to act like respectable, law-abiding states will lose their sovereignty ✅

Bush and the World-Michael Hirsch 2002 This article primarily takes jabs at sovereignty, and states that the world is falling apart due to a lack of globalization. They go further though when they state that the biggest fear is no longer ballistic missiles, but "WMD loaded into a boat or truck by a small number of hate-filled people who lack a "return address" and are undaunted by the threat of retaliation." Because of this threat, they pose, "Americans must work harder to flesh out a fuller international community." With their clear disdain of sovereignty already mentioned, a "fuller international community" can only mean the elimination of sovereignty, once again because of a boogeyman. ✅

Similarly, if the world were to face what would be a clear and present danger due to sizeable global warming, it likely would act. (Some may well argue that once warming becomes a clear and present
danger, it will be much more difficult to deal with it than it is now. However, the attentive publics must be convinced that the current and anticipated level of warming poses a serious threat before they will agree to burdensome measures that must be under- taken to reverse this trend.) Meanwhile, the global environment, which has a wider appeal than wel- fare, will draw some resources—but not enough to prevent further degradation. As with welfare, those who wish for more action are better off finding new interests to further engage the nations of the world and stronger normative arguments to present than berating the rich. 282

The Intimate Papers of Colonel House-Charles Seymour 41 After the Napoleonic wars public opinion
in Europe believed that Jacobinism was the great danger to
peace, just as now we believe, with more justification, that
Prussian Militarism is what we have mainly to fear. Accordingly,
the principal nations entered into the Holy Alliance,
with a view to suppressing Jacobinism whenever they saw
it raising its head. Very soon Great Britain withdrew from
the League, but it persisted with the most disastrous results
for many years in Europe . I am dreadfully afraid that we
may make the same mistake now . Prussian militarism is
indeed a portentous evil, but if, misled by our fear of it, we
try to impose on all the nations of the world a form of government
which has been indeed admirably successful in
America and this country, but is not necessarily suited for
all others, I am convinced we shall plant the seeds of very
serious international trouble . Lord Robert Cecil to House- This is an incredibly wise contention, the writer of this letter understood the boogeyman and realized that maybed the first boogeyman that they could think of was jacobinism. And then after that prussian military might, in the institution of the world order due to this is not intelligent. ✅

The Intimate Papers of Colonel House-Charles Seymour 44 The Monroe Doctrine asserted a specific interest on the
part of the United States in preventing certain gross
breaches of the peace on the American Continent ; and when
President Wilson suggested an enlargement of the Monroe
Doctrine to take in the whole world, his proposal carried by
necessary implication the change of doctrine which I am discussing.
The change may seem so natural as to be unimportant,
but it is really crucial, for the old doctrine is asserted
and the broader doctrine is denied by approximately
half the military power of the world, and the question between
the two is one of the things about which this war is
being fought. The change involves a limitation of sovereignty,
making every sovereign state subject to the superior
right of a community of sovereign states to have the
peace preserved. The acceptance of any such principle
would be fatal to the whole Prussian theory of the state and
of government. When you have got this principle accepted
openly, expressly, distinctly, unequivocally by the whole civilized
world, you will for the first time have a Community
of Nations, and the practical results which will naturally
develop will be as different from those which have come from
the old view of national responsibility as are the results
which flow from the American Declaration of Independence
compared with the results which flow from the Divine Right
of Kings. This was Elihu Root to Colonel House ✅

Selective Global Commitment- Zbigniew Brzezinski Accordingly, in determining when and how to address such
problems the international community may have to be guided
less by traditional notions of sovereignty (i.e., is one state
violating the sovereignty of another?) and more by the scope
of the threat itself. In other words, there may develop situations
in which external intervention in the seemingly internal
affairs of a state—as in Yugoslavia yesterday and perhaps
elsewhere tomorrow—may be necessary and justified by the
potential consequences of activities that are otherwise of internal
character and that do not, of themselves, involve interstate
collision. ✅

World Order 2.0 Richard Haass "Climate change is in many ways the quintessential manifestation of globalization. It reflects the sum total of what is going on; countries are exposed and affected unevenly by the problem regardless of their contribution to it." Haass says that Climate change fits under Sovereign Obligation, and that international incentives and penalties should be given out to nations who do not comply with the internationally established rule set. In addition, he states that the developed countries have the sovereign obligation to pick up most of the tab for the less developed countries to combat climate change. ✅

"Obviously there is going to be no peace or prosperity for mankind so long as it remains divided into fifty or sixty independent states...Equally obviously there is going to be no steady progress in civilization or self government among the more backward peoples until some kind of international system is created which will put an end to the diplomatic struggles incident to the attempt of every nation to make itself secure...The real problem today is that of world government."
