On August 14, 2003, New York City – the seat of the Parliament of the World, the United Nation – and other cities in Northeastern America covering the main distribution area of The New York Times were hit by a sudden power BLACKOUT. On that very same day, The New York Times had published as an advertisement m recent Public Appeal that the world community needed to bring to justice those politicians that threatened the very existence of the United Nations, its Charter and its Code of International Law.
Coincidence? Imagine, what would you have done if you had been in the shoes of those politicians in Washington who used the tragic events of September 11 to their advantage and lied to the people of America and the World about the Iraq War? These special interest groups are in the worst crisis ever. They have lost their political credibility around the world, and they hold on to power with the skin of their teeth. Undoubtedly, these political and corporate special interests were the largest benefactors of the BLACKOUT.
My Public Appeal advertisement in The New York Times on August 14 was triggered by the efforts of these groups to – retrospectively – seek UN approval for their War against Iraq. My Call to the Governments of the World to “Just Say No!” in my advertisement in The New York Times on August 14 dragged this unscrupulous plan into plain daylight.
I called upon the United Nations General Assembly to hold those politicians and the corporate interests they represent responsible for their actions. I called for the prosecution of these politicians for their breach of international law by leading a war without any international mandate in the very Court specifically set up for that purpose – The International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague.
I called upon the United Nations General Assembly and the Heads of States of about 200 nations of the world to join now to protect the most valuable asset mankind has to preserve world peace the United Nations System of International Law and the UN Charter.
If you were in the shoes of these politicians, this BLACKOUT served your goals in several ways:
…BLACK OUT the attention of the readers of The New York Times and the People of America, millions of who already doubt your credibility.
…BLACK OUT the UN ambassadors of almost 200 nations in New York City and disrupt communication line with their governments at home in order to prevent their coordination.
…BLACK OUT to gain more time. Only five days later, on the eve of the UN Security Council meeting, a bomb destroyed the UN headquarters in Iraq. This event is immediately being abused by the Bush and Blair administrations to coerce the United Nations into a further Iraq commitment. Their goals are obvious: to retrospectively legitimize the Iraq War, to avoid prosecution at the International Criminal Court for breach of international law and to have the United Nations dismantle its own Charter and system of International Law.
Think about it: You are dealing with the same corporate interest groups who BLACKED OUT millions of Americans in the ENRON scandal – before they were voted into the White House. The same special interest groups BLACKED OUT the official report about September 11 and BLACKED OUT the truth about the war against Iraq – a war that killed tens of thousands of people and violated International Law and the UN Charter.
These lies and BLACK OUTS serve special corporate interest groups and their political stakeholders. If the people and the governments of the world do not expose these interests and hold them responsible, they will continue to threaten world peace for generations to come!
Dr. Rath’s Appeal advertisement in The New York Times on August 14, 2003, the day of the Black Out…
I CALL UPON ALL MEMBERS OF THE UNITED NATIONS:
DON’T LET THE UN CHARTER BE DESTROYED!
If the United Nations General Assembly lets the UN Security Council cave in to U.S. pressure and – retrospectively – legitimize the attack war against Iraq, it will have destroyed the very basis of the United Nations’ existence – to ban all wars of aggression.
IN THE NAME OF THE PEOPLE OF THE WORLD FOR THIS GENERATION AND FOR ALL FUTURE GENERATIONS: THIS MUST NEVER HAPPEN! YOU MUST SAY NO!
Instead of granting immunity to those politicians responsible for starting wars of aggression, you must hold them responsible at the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague, which started its work this year with precisely that purpose. If you don’t act now, the corporate interest behind these politicians will continue to threaten world peace for generations to come.
DON’T LET THEM GET AWAY WITH IT!
The Heads of State of the close to 200 nations of the world must join now to protect the most valuable asset mankind has to preserve world peace: the United Nations system of International Law and the UN Charter.
JUST SAY “NO!”
SAVE THE UN CHARTER – SAVE WORLD PEACE!

Over the past few months, Dr. Rath has raised his voice repeatedly to unmask the corporate interests behind the war against Iraq.
His voice has become recognized as a "Conscience of the World".
THIS YEAR’S UN GENERAL ASSEMBLY DECIDES ON THE FUTURE OF THE UNITED NATIONS, WORLD PEACE AND THE FUTURE OF MANKIND!
- When the UNITED NATIONS GENERAL ASSEMBLY meets this year, it will have to make decisions that determine the future of the United Nations as the Parliament of the World, the course of the world peace and, thereby, the future of mankind. Since the founding of the United Nations more than half a century ago, no UN GENERAL ASSEMBLY has ever been more significant.
- The Bush Administration knows this, as do all other governments that made the fateful decision to join a war led in open violation of International Law and to lie to the entire world. They know that the world community cannot and will not tolerate their actions. The background to their diplomatic frenzy in the UN Security Council is their fate of the UN GENERAL ASSEMBLY’S decisions later this month.
- The fact is, if the UN GENERAL ASSEMBLY allows the UN Security Council to cave in to US pressure and – retrospectively – legitimize the attack war against Iraq, it will have destroyed the very basis of the United Nations’ existence – to ban all wars of aggression.
- Instead of granting immunity to those politicians responsible for starting illegal wars of aggression, you must bring them to justice before the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague, which started its work this year with precisely that purpose. If you don’t act now, the corporate interests behind these politicians will continue to threaten world peace for generations to come.
The Heads of State of the close to 200 nations of the world must now act together to initiate Proceedings at the ICC in order to protect the most valuable asset mankind has to preserve world peace: the United Nations system of International Law and the UN Charter.
IN THE NAME OF THE PEOPLE OF THE WORLD FOR THIS GENERATION AND ALL FUTURE GENERATIONS – YOU MUST ACT NOW TO PRESERVE WORLD PEACE!
