Yet another initiative to bring peace and safety as the world gives it, rather than as Jesus Christ gives it. "For when they are saying, 'Peace and safety,' then sudden destruction will come on them, like birth pains on a pregnant woman, and they will in no way escape" (1 Thessalonians 5:3) Clinton-Soros Initiative at UN Summit 'Vacuum' caused by United Nations corruption creating new power center Sept. 15 (WND) A South China Morning Post headline captures the mood: "His plans are grand, but can he save the world?" Maybe so, according to heavy-hitter sponsors, including Microsoft, Starbucks, Hewlett Packard, Google, Yahoo, Goldman Sachs, the Rockefeller Foundation and Citigroup. As Americans remain focused on Katrina recovery and the confirmation hearings of Supreme Court nominee John Roberts, an international drama is unfolding in New York where the UN is hosting a World Summit in celebration of its 60th anniversary. The Summit is the largest ever gathering for world leaders. Topping the list for diplomats is the urgent and embarrassing call for UN reform. Expect world leaders to dodge some scheduled United Nations sessions today in a rush to attend the opening round of the Clinton Global Initiative, where 750 global glitterati and their aides have converged on the Sheraton New York Hotel and Towers, at $15,000 per head to forge a "new level" of global cooperation. The former US president has openly sought a post-presidential position commensurate with his vision, hoping to use his "clout, connections and charisma" on behalf of the global community. The Clinton Global Initiative finds religion to be "a chief engine of deadly conflict, providing immediate pretext and overall context. Yet, people of faith are wary of those who preach peace by fingering religion as the source of "deadly conflict." In light of the CGI's goal of an "integrated global community of shared benefits, responsibilities, and values," a looming question is, whose religious "values" will this "integrated global community" demand? The advisory board for the Religion Forum is packed with those who are noted for their liberal views toward religion, those for whom dogma (fundamentalism) is "problematical."
