nation into compliance. Speaking specifically of the U.N.’s military options, Schelling states:
The three main kinds of military action that the force could take against a
united country would be pain, conquest, and obstruction. By “pain” I mean sheer
coercive damage. Nuclear or other weapons might be used to inflict civil damage
at a rate sufficient to induce the government to change its mind and bend to the
will of the international authority. By “conquest” I mean invasion or occupation
sufficient to put the international authority into the role of the occupying power.
By “obstruction” I mean military action designed to retard a country’s
rearmament, to make it more costly than the country could manage, to spoil it
altogether or to impede it sufficiently to prevent a major threat to the security of
other countries. This might be done either by selective bombing or by selective
invasion and occupation of key facilities. (The Strategy of World Order, Vol 3,
The United Nations, edited by Richard A. Falk and Saul H. Mendlovitz, World
Law Fund, 1966, p. 682)

Keeping in mind that the U.N. seeks the military capability to force its agenda on the
nations of the world, let us turn our attention to recommendations of the MFD. The MFD calls
upon the U.N. general assembly to “endorse the Earth Charter.”

The Earth Charter is one of
the first steps towards a one-world religion to be intertwined with the U.N’s one-world
government. Jennifer Rast of Contender Ministries wrote a two-part article on the Earth Charter.
In her article she writes, “the Earth Charter lays out much of the framework for a new global
spirituality…” She further writes:
Those who are willing to quietly accept the humanist, New Age agenda
will be welcomed with open arms, while those who contend for their faith in the
one true God and our savior Jesus Christ will be labeled intolerant and demonized
as standing in the way of peace, global centeredness and faith in Mother Earth.

The Earth Charter
The Earth Charter was created over a period of approximately eight years. The drafting of
the Earth Charter began as a result of discussions, which occurred at the United Nations
Conference on Environment and Development (the Earth Summit) held in Rio de Janeiro in
1992. In March of 2000, the Earth Charter Commission issued the final version of the Earth
Charter.
A complete understanding of the Earth Charter and its agenda is obtained not only from
the text but also by analysis of the beliefs and agenda of those who were involved in drafting it.
The two most important figures involved in drafting the Earth Charter were Maurice Strong and
Mikhail Gorbachev.
