FINAL WARNING: Introduction
‘world order’ in which the ‘principles of justice and fair play ... protect
the weak against the strong.’ A world where the United Nations, freed
from cold war stalemate, is poised to fulfill the historic vision of its
founders. A world in which freedom and respect for human rights find
a home among all nations.”
On August 21, 1991, after the failed coup in the Soviet Union, CNN
reporter Mary Tillotson said that the President’s “New World Order is
back on track, now stronger than ever.” In an interview with CNN at the
height of the Gulf War, Scowcroft said that he had doubts about the
significance of Mid-East objectives regarding global policy. When
asked if that meant he didn’t believe in the New World Order, he
replied: “Oh, I believe in it. But our definition, not theirs.” On January

CNN interview: “We must get the New World Order on track and bring
the UN into its correct role in regards to the United States.”
In April, 1992, Sen. Joseph R. Biden Jr. wrote the article “How I

this country needs. And that’s going to be one of the major enterprises
of the Council under me.”
On September 14, 1994, while speaking at the Business Council for the
United Nations, David Rockefeller said: “But this present window of
opportunity, during which a truly peaceful and interdependent world
