Survival or Extinction: Part 12—Peace Without Poison - summary
By Kevin Mugur Galalae
The Paris Peace Conference, which concluded World War I in 1919, begot the League of Nations, the first international organization created to maintain world peace. It took another global war, World War II, and the threat of assured mutual destruction by nuclear weapons, to compel the world’s sovereign states to create a neutral international organization in 1945, the United Nations Organization, and abdicate to it national jurisdiction over areas crucial to maintaining peace between nations, areas that were deemed international security prerogatives and were entrusted solely to the authority of the UN.

To bypass the democratic process and national sovereignty, the founding nations of the United Nations agreed, upon becoming UN Member States, to gradually give up command and control over the two international security prerogatives that were identified to be the ultimate causes of all wars: population and resources. Nuclear deterrence compelled even the most powerful nations to toe the UN line.

To prevent war, the UN, unlike the League of Nations, understood that it must take preemptive action to ensure that the pressures which lead to war never arise or if they do arise they do not become so acute as to make war inevitable. To develop friendly relations among nations and to take other appropriate measures to strengthen universal peace;

As war between nations became impossible, structural violence within nations increased accordingly to make up for the depredations of war where social, political, ethnic and especially economic problems found their ultimate resolution before the world decided to maintain peace between nations at all costs. And that is why conventional war between nations has been replaced by covert structural violence within nations, violence directed and calibrated by the state against its own civilians to preempt the formation of pressure points before they become threats to peace.

As the world’s social, economic, cultural, ethnic, religious and material problems grow along with the global population so does the structural violence nation states perpetrate on their own citizens, with the assistance of the United Nations, to keep the world at peace.

The international community of nation states has been able to give us peace with poison by accepting that the treatment of citizens within borders is a matter of legitimate international concern. Can we, in other words, have peace without poison? Are we capable of peace without poison? For only by empowering the person can the world find peace.

Planetary Security depends on globally coordinated action: political, economic, environmental and social.

Poor nations are outbid by rich nations on the free market and therefore cannot buy the resources they need to industrialize and reach the West’s standard of living. Only the immediate elimination of national frontiers and global citizenship can allow us to defuse the world’s pressure points and survive the necessary transition from a world of nations to a planetary civilization.

To fly to where we need to be, if we are to have peace without poison and Planetary Security, the new international infrastructure must be readjusted from the top down, by reforming the United Nations to transform it from an organization of nation states to an organization of individuals.

The reformed United Nations will in effect cease to be an organization of nation states and will become an organization of independent individuals. The stated roles of the United Nations are to maintain international peace and security, promote human rights, foster social and economic development, protect the environment, and provide humanitarian aid in cases of famine, natural disaster, and armed conflict. Its unstated roles, which are international security prerogatives, are to control population growth and facilitate access to resources.

The fundamental role of the United Nations Organization, which is to prevent aggression by one nation against another, will have ceased to be relevant in a world where the nation state has given up executive control over security and resources to the United Peoples Organization, whose fundamental role will be to be prevent human aggression against the planet and to retire all forms of structural violence that nations states perpetrate against individuals.

Reduce the global population to a sustainable level
The new international structure will thus have only three principal organs, the Council of 12, the General Assembly, and the International Court of Justice, as opposed to the current structure which has five principal organs – Security Council, General Assembly, ECOSOC, Secretariat, and International Court of Justice.

Killing Us Softly: Causes and Consequences of the Global Depopulation Policy is considered by the author to be important in understanding the content of Survival or Extinction.
