So it goes with Agenda 21, Wilding, Regionalism, and Substainable Development. These United Nations projects of just some of plans which the United States is a part. The European Union has aawlys been thought of by the planners in regards to a North American Union.While many view the war on terror and the police action in Iraq as greed for oil that is a smoke screen. The war on terror and the police action in Iraq is to institute agression against anyone labeled a terrorist or any nation label a rouge nation, while all national borders are eliminated and merged into a One World Government.The real act on Iraq brought the concept that leaders of the G8 can tell other countries what to do and when to do it.
