One who engages in Islamofascism. In general, Islamofascism refers to the notion that Islam is not so much a religion as it is a political ideology that in many ways resembles “fascism” (i.e. the modern common definition of fascism which equates it with totalitarianism, as opposed to the original capital-F Italian-style Fascism). More specifically, Islamofascism is used to describe either the social structure of a society living under strict Islamic shari’a law, or the interpersonal behavior of someone who acts in accordance with true Islam. An Islamofascist can either be an Islamic fundamentalist, or someone who uses violence or bullying tactics to impose Islamic principles on others — or, more bluntly, a Muslim bigot whose religious beliefs are the source of his bigotry.







Islamofascism similarly pursues its aims through the willful, arbitrary, and gratuitous disruption of global society, either by terrorist conspiracies or by violation of peace between states. Al Qaeda has recourse to the former weapon; Hezbollah, in assaulting northern Israel, used the latter. These are not acts of protest, but calculated strategies for political advantage through undiluted violence. Hezbollah showed fascist methods both in its kidnapping of Israeli soldiers and in initiating that action without any consideration for the Lebanese government of which it was a member. Indeed, Lebanese democracy is a greater enemy of Hezbollah than Israel. Punishments from Sharia law show the same lack of concern for Human Rights and life itself.



It’s time for the United Nations to be disbanded What useful function does it serve? How effective are U.N. sanctions? Sanctions against Iran have had little effect in persuading it to stop its pursuit on nuclear capabilities.





How effective is an organization that issues sanctions and fails to enforce them? Equally important are sanctions issued that member states secretly violate. Will the oil for food scandal between Iraq, France and Russia be forgotten?



Saddam Hussein’s regime and manipulated to help prop up the Iraqi dictator. Saddam’s dictatorship was able to siphon off an estimated $10 billion from the Oil-for-Food program through oil smuggling and systematic thievery, by demanding illegal payments from companies buying Iraqi oil, and through kickbacks from those selling goods to Iraq–all under the noses of U.N. bureaucrats. The members of the U.N. staff administering the program have been accused of gross incompetence, mismanagement, and possible complicity with the Iraqi regime in perpetrating the biggest scandal in U.N. history.



SanctionsThe United Nations uses “sanctions”, or the necessary means to combat violations of agreements regarding human rights among the member nations. When a member state is in violation of an agreement. There are various forms of sanctions depending on the seriousness of the crime of the offending nation. These include Embargos, Exclusion, Suspension, Expulsion and Military Force.





These sanctions to appear to be working with regard to countries dominated by Islam and Sharia law.



Embargo



Essentially, an embargo refers to a state authority limiting, interrupting or terminating a country’s economic activity.



Article 41 of the Charter of the United Nations describes the various restrictions that embargos can enforce:



The Security Council may decide what measures or sanctions will be used. These may include complete or partial interruption of economic relations and of rail, sea, air, postal, telegraphic, radio, and other means of communication, and the severance of diplomatic relations.



This type of sanction was used against South Africa to combat Apartheid. There were restrictions on trade, and South African vessels were not allowed to use ports. The United Nations Security Council “recommended that states should cease ‘forthwith, the sales and shipment of arms, ammunition of all types and military vehicles to South Africa’”



Exclusion



Article 19 of the Charter of the United Nations states that a state that does not contribute financially to the United Nations “shall have no vote in the General Assembly if the amount of its arrears equals or exceeds the amount of the contributions due from it for the preceding two full years”. At the same time, the state may have the power to vote, at the discretion of the General Assembly. It must be noted that this sanction is not used against violation of human rights.



Suspension



In Article 5 of the Charter of the United Nations, it is stated that when advised by the Security Council, the General Council has the power to suspend the privileges of a member state. A member state lacking these membership rights is arguably less powerful than a non-member state. These privileges can be reinstated by the Security Council.



Expulsion



Expulsion essentially refers to the withdrawal of a member state from the United Nations. However, there is a difference between expulsion and voluntary withdrawal. Expulsion is a sanction, which means that it is done against the will of a nation. Member states that are expelled have usually repeatedly violated agreements stated in various charters or agreements. Expulsion is considered a very serious form of sanction.



Military Force



Military force is the most serious, but least frequently used form of sanction. Military force is used as a last resort, as Article 2 of the Charter of the United Nations declares, “All Members shall settle their international disputes by peaceful means in such a manner that international peace and security, and justice, are not endangered.” However, should the Security Council deem peaceful sanctions ineffective, it may recommend other member states of the United Nations to use military force against the offending nation. Military sanctions have been used against Iraq successfully in the past.



The United Nations is consisted largely of third world nations, with despots and tin pot dictators as their leaders. Rampant with corruption, member states vote against the interest of the United States 80% of the time.



The U.N. is made up for the most part of socialist countries, that are supporters of false science behind Global Warming, social engineering and redistribution of wealth.



The United Nations has failed in efforts to enforce sanctions against Sharia law.



It is well past time the United Nations go the way of Woodrow Wilson’s League of Nations and be disbanded. If not, It’s certainly time for the U.S. to get out of the U.N. and get the U.N. out of the U.S.
