HERE'S A NOVEL IDEA: A REAL UNITED NATIONS | 2004-08-31

I think we might want to form an informal "REAL United Nations." This starts with understanding what a NATION is. The so-called United Nations is a meeting of political units, not of nations. The cultuurgemeenschap ( I was posting on a Dutch language board) is a nation, no matter whether it is politically united or not. Poland was a nation when it was territorially divided into pieces of Russia and Prusssia. Ireland was a nation when it was occupied by Britain and considered an integral part of Great Britain politically.

A "nation" is not a political unit. A nation is a living culture

The cultuurgemeenschap is a nation. The South is a nation. Most of the members of United Nations are just old administrative units of European empires that were made into political units. To call them "Nations" is a bad joke.

In Africa, the real nations are the tribes, each of which contains millions of members. But the African "nations" who sit in the so-called "United Nations" are bastard mixes of different tribes whose borders split up the real tribes, the real African nations, because the British and the French and the Belgians set them up that way.

The unity of the white race might be made up of a REAL United Nations.

And we would have a lot of allies in this endeavor who are not white.

Nice article and great idea. However states have the power since they have the money. They don't care about splitting up nations in different states so long as they collect taxes.

Joe,

Bob did not claim that this would be immediately embraced by the reigning politicos, only that it was right.

All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed; second, it is violently opposed; and third, it is accepted as self-evident.

As a point of comparison, our tax-supported county Human Relations Commission and its Anti-Hate Network is wild about the concept of "Pan-African" which doesn't seem to be carefully defined, but its meaning shines through.

While we on the West Coast do not follow fashions or vocabulary formed within non-white demographics, in fact there may be some value in claiming the existence of a nation called "Pan-European" or some such. If made up of descendants of the indigenous European peoples, the collective could be considered a nation easily enough, certainly as much as the Jewish diaspora considers it self to be a nation.
