Guest guest Posted July 7, 2003 Report Share Posted July 7, 2003 http://www.crossroad.to/text/articles/MentalHealth2-99.html The UN Plan for Your Mental Health The UN Plan for Your Mental Health by Berit Kjos We believe that mental health is just as important as physical health maybe even more so. " Donna Shalala, Department of Health and Human Services " Mental health refers to how a person thinks, feels, and acts when faced with life's situations. " National Mental Health Services Knowledge Exchange Network " The challenge to humanity is to adopt new ways of thinking, new ways of acting, new ways of organizing itself in society in short, new ways of living. " Our Creative Diversity, UNESCO Don't be deceived by nice sounding labels such as Healthy Start, Healthy People, Healthy Families, Healthy Communities, and Healthy Cities. These and other " local " campaigns for public and mental health follow a global blueprint. They all fit into a worldwide system of health management and surveillance led by the World Health Organization, a UN special agency that equates faith with hate and truth with intolerance. 1 The goal is conditioning the masses to willingly conform to new " universal " values, environmental guidelines, and a global management system. Dr. David Satcher, U.S. Surgeon-General and Assistant Secretary for Health, gave a progress report at a National Healthy People Consortium in November 1998 " We have a clear blueprint in place, " he announced. " Currently, 47 states are actively involved in Healthy People 2000 and 'Healthy City and Healthy Community' initiatives are being pursued throughout the country. Hundreds of national organizations have reviewed the Year 2000 objectives and have adopted them as their own. " Dr. Satcher then drew the connection between Healthy Start,2 Healthy People, mental health and the World Health Organization: " Every child should be given the opportunity for a healthy start... No priority yet has generated as much interest and enthusiasm as this one on mental health... " " ...our efforts will be focused on maintaining a system of global health surveillance... " Healthy People 2010 is the United States' contribution to the World Health Organization's call to the nations of the world to renew their commitment to health for all.... 3 A Colorado law gives us a glimpse of what we might expect once this system is fully in place. It suggests that Christian child-raising could be considered " emotional abuse ...or a substantial risk... " and gives the Social Services the authority to prosecute Christian parents for child abuse. 4 To protect Christian families, conservatives pressed the legislature to add an exemption to the proposed bill. It declared that " Emotional abuse shall not be construed to include religious instruction. " But this exemption was deleted before SB 97-218, titled " Children's Services " , became effective on July 1, 1997. Now, every Colorado family that trains its children to follow God risks breaking the law and facing the fury of an anti-Christian Child Protection Service. How could this be happening in America? A NEW WAY OF THINKING In a 1996 speech at The National Children's Mental Health Initiative, Donna Shalala, Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), said, " From fully immunizing children by age two... to stopping domestic violence, we're working to improve the lives of young people from the cradle to young adulthood. And a strong part of our vision is the mental health of children. We believe that mental health is just as important as physical health ...maybe even more so... " 5 As head of the DHHS, Shalala helped organize The National Mental Health Services Knowledge Exchange Network (KEN). Ponder its definition for mental health: " Mental health refers to how a person thinks, feels, and acts when faced with life's situations. It is how people look at themselves, their lives, and the other people in their lives ...and explore choices. " 6 Do you wonder what Dr. Shalala and her network of health planners would consider good thinking? Or bad thinking? This definition doesn't tell us. How do they want people " to look at themselves " or " explore choices " ? The answer is clear when you study UNESCO's psycho-social strategies for conforming the minds of our children to its anti-Christian world view. But without background information, these ambiguous, open-ended phrases hide the true intentions. However, Dr. Shalala and other self-proclaimed " change agents " do tell us that the old ways " a person thinks, feels, and acts " must change. They don't fit the new global ideology or the consensus process. According to Professor Benjamin Bloom, called the Father of OBE, the new " purpose of education and the schools is to change the thoughts, feelings and actions of students. " 7 So it's not surprising that UNESCO's Commission on Culture and Development in its report, Our Creative Diversity, wrote that - " The challenge to humanity is to adopt new ways of thinking, new ways of acting, new ways of organizing itself in society, in short, new ways of living. " 8 Referring to the management and monitoring of its education program, the Kansas State Board of Education made a similar statement, " QPA [Quality Performance Accreditation] is a process which demands new thinking, new strategies, new behavior, and new beliefs. " " New beliefs " and " new thinking " are key to the global management system. Adults as well as children must trade truth, facts, and logical thinking for myths, UN values, and the consensus process. The masses must learn to see themselves, not as individuals, but as part of a greater whole: a group, a community, the planet. Finally, the United Nations is nearing its goal: to create a unified, socialist world made up of compliant world citizens ready to adapt to what Al Gore called " a wrenching transformation of society. " 9 THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION (WHO) In 1946, the first head of WHO laid the foundation for today's mental health program. Having implied that Christian parents indoctrinated " their defenseless children " with " poisonous certainties " that cause war and conflict, Canadian psychiatrist Brock Chisholm, added, " The problem is no longer the germ of diphtheria, but rather the attitudes of parents who are incapable of accepting and using proven knowledge... " Surely the training of children in home and schools should be of at least as great public concern as their vaccination.... Individuals who have emotional disabilities of their own--guilts, fears, inferiorities--are certain to project their hates on to others... uch reaction now becomes a dangerous threat to the whole world.... " We must be prepared to sacrifice much.... If it cannot be done gently, it may have to be done roughly or even violently... " 10 Half a century has passed since Dr. Chisholm called for UN controls that would abolish divisive Christian " certainties " . Today, WHO commands an international networking agency that helps nations around the world change and monitor the ways their people think, choose, and act. Called Nations for Mental Health, it links each member state to the UN agenda and promises to steer each nation toward the UN goal: " Governments will be assisted to formulate, implement, monitor and evaluate mental health policies. " Mental health policies should enable all individuals whose mental health is disturbed or whose psychological balance may be compromised to obtain services adapted to their needs, and to promote the optimal development of the mental health of the population. " 11 To develop " the mental health of the population " and to prevent dissent and conflict from blocking progress, everyone must participate in the consensus process. Assessments for all -- young and old -- will show who might be " at risk " of not meeting the new mental standards for healthy communities. For a glimpse at the vast network already in place, look at some of the mental health partners in the WHO agenda: World Health Organization (WHO) Nations for Mental Health Dept. of Health and Human Services National Mental Health Services Knowledge Exchange Network (KEN) Healthy Cities Healthy Communities Healthy Families Healthy People Healthy Start Children, in private as well as government schools, practice compliance by signing the Healthy Practices Pledge. It sounds innocuous at first -- just promise to " brush with a fluoride toothpaste, " choose " snacks such as fruits and vegetables, " and " make our home a smoke-free zone, " then sign the pledge. But the contract is open-ended. It suggests that other " healthy " behaviors will be added later. 12 What if the next contract adds " cooperation with " and " tolerance for " something that conflicts with a child's faith? What if a refusal to sign the contract brings ridicule and persecution? Is your child ready to follow God, even when pressured to conform? HEALTHY CITIES AND COMMUNITIES. The Healthy Cities project was launched by WHO in the early eighties. Its web site explains its purpose: " The Healthy Cities Project helps change the ways in which individuals, communities, private and voluntary organizations and local governments think about, understand and make decisions about health. " 13 Today, its guidelines are followed by leaders across America -- whether they use the label " Healthy City " or not. Remember Dr. Satcher's report at the 1998 Healthy People Consortium: " 'Healthy City and Healthy Community' initiatives are being pursued throughout the country. Hundreds of national organizations... have [adopted] the Year 2000 objectives... Healthy People 2010 is the United States' contribution to the World Health Organization's call to the nations of the world to renew their commitment to health for all. 14 It's no accident that the last three words, " health for all, " sound like UNESCO's 1990 World Conference on Education for All (EFA). The latter introduced the same six education goals President Bush announced in 1991. EFA's counterpart in the health arena is WHO's Health for All (HFA). And, like Goals 2000, the US branch of UNESCO's outcome-based education system, " a Healthy City is defined in terms of process and outcome. " WHO's Healthy Cities program works with America's Coalition for Healthier Cities and Communities, whose members may or may not use the WHO labels. But they must all follow the Total Quality Management process which calls for continual monitoring of change and progress. They must also agree to: " measure our progress. " " address the root causes of problems. " " promote a broader definition of health that includes physical, mental, social, and spiritual dimensions. " " focus on prevention, wellness and change incentives. " PREVENTING CONFLICT AND MENTAL PROBLEMS. The key to prevention is continual and controlled training, monitoring, and remediation. 15 As Clinton suggested at the 1997 White House Conference on Hate Crimes, " There would almost have to be some sort of club or organization at the school, because if you think about it, your parents are still pretty well separated ... We have to find a disciplined, organized way out of this so that we reach every child in an affirmative way before something bad happens... In the UN plan for Healthy Cities, prevention becomes a personal duty. Since the group counts more than the person, friends and neighbors would be asked to report on one another -- just as in Nazi Germany. " I challenge our young people to realize their important role in this seamless system, " said Donna Shalala. " Many times, you as friends are the strongest link in the chain of contact. You know best when your brother, your sister or your friend is facing problems... " 5 President Clinton suggested the same tactic during the above hate- crimes conference: " The Justice Department will make its own hate crimes training curriculum available. A lot of hate crimes still go unreported... If a crime is unreported, that gives people an excuse to ignore it. " Then he announced a Justice Department website which invites children to tell " trusted adults " about " hateful " or exclusive attitudes they see in their relatives at home or in friends in school. Hard to believe? It all makes sense when you consider the United Nations' hostility toward traditional values. Ponder the words of Federico Mayor, Director-General of UNESCO: " The mission of UNESCO... is that of advancing... international peace and the common welfare... We have witnessed... the resurgence of nationalism, the growth of fundamentalism and of religious and ethnic intolerance. The roots of exclusion and hatred have shown themselves even deeper and more tenacious than we had feared... Peace... requires, in the words of the Constitution, 'the intellectual and moral solidarity of mankind'. " 16 MOLDING THE MINDS OF THE MASSES. Children who refuse to conform may be considered handicapped. According to a Teacher Training Manual from the National Training Institute for Applied Behavioral Science, " Although they appear to behave appropriately and seem normal by most cultural standards, they may actually be in need of mental health care in order to help them change, adapt, and conform to the planned society in which there will be no conflict of attitudes or beliefs. " 17 Conflict must be replaced with solidarity, and -- as in the USSR -- everyone must be monitored for compliance with the new global beliefs and values. Such a surveillance system is at the heart of President Clinton's Executive Order 13107 (See " Trading U.S. Rights for UN Rules. " It establishes " an Interagency Working Group on Human Rights Treaties " , and its functions include: the monitoring of the actions by the various States for their conformity with relevant treaties, the provision of relevant information for reports and other monitoring purposes, and the promotion of effective remedial mechanisms; " 18 Monitoring the progress of mental Health for All (HFA) is essential to the process of managed change. Non-compliance or dissent must be spotted, reported, and corrected before it spreads. As you saw in the Colorado law, even " a substantial risk " of failure to conform could bring preventative correction. Remediation, conflict resolution, and other mind changing strategies include these steps: challenge traditional values evoke strong feelings produce cognitive dissonance, a form of mental and moral confusion dialogue to consensus elicit a response that 1. demonstrates a change in attitude 2. can be measured 3. becomes part of a child's individual electronic data file The goal of brainwashing in the Soviet Union was to create the new " Soviet Man. " 19 The UN goal is to mold global citizens so committed to the new ideology that they cannot be turned back even by the most logical arguments. UNESCO's 1995 report, Our Creative Diversity, said it well: " Education must inform... but it must also form, it must provide them with a sense of meaning to guide their actions... " Education should promote 'rational understanding of conflict, tensions, and the processes involved, provoke a critical awareness... and provide a basis for the analysis of concepts that will prevent ...chauvinist and irrational explanations from being accepted.'... " Its primary task is to provide information, explain and analyze problems and subject them to criticism... " It should cover adults as well. The principle of lifelong education should be the aim of all societies. " 20 Edward Hunter wrote the book Brainwashing, an insightful report on the experience of prisoners who survived Soviet brainwashing strategies in Communist Countries during the fifties. His warnings should shine a red light into our foolish presumptions that this process couldn't be used in our nation. 21 Compare his words with the above UNESCO report written over four decades later: " Even when he stands by himself, the truly indoctrinated communist must be part of the collective. He must be incapable of hearing opposing ideas and facts, no matter how convincing or how forcibly they bombard his senses. A trustworthy communist must reach in an automatic manner without any force being applied. " 22 Having learned to process away facts and fear truth, these conditioned masses would resist logic and hate God's Word. It's natural. After all, " the whole world is under the control of the evil one. " (1 John 5:19) Therefore, Jesus warned His disciples long ago, " If they persecute me, they will persecute you. for they do not know the One who sent me. " Are you and your children ready to face hostility and rejection for your faith? If so, you will delight in this promise: " Blessed are you when men hate you exclude you, and revile you, and cast out your name as evil for the Son of Man's sake. Rejoice in that day and leap for joy, for great is your reward in heaven. " Luke 6:22- 23 For practical information about the consensus process and other psycho-social strategies, read chapter 3 in Brave New Schools. To understand the worldwide feminist movement's goals and influence on mental health regulations, read chapter 9 of A Twist of Faith. Endnotes: 1.

Healthy Start was summarized by Robert Holland in his article, " Statists Seek to Monitor All Newborns and Train Their Parents " , Richmond Times Dispatch (February, 1999): " Armed with backing from private foundations and the federal government, advocates of Hillary Clinton's It-Takes-a-Village ideology are beginning to implement a plan for cradle-to-grave tracking of the newborns of first-time parents. Part of the scheme entails sending agents into private homes to " train " parents for up to 50 visits annually per family. Expectant parents are enlisted by being asked to sign permission forms at the hospital, where amid all the excitement of a first birth they may not be aware of the implications for their privacy and parental rights. Information that the agents collect from families will be put in a nationwide system called the Program Information Management System (PIMS), which will contain medical and psychological entries and observations on family relationships. PIMS' tracking of newborn's development could easily be linked with other preschool and public- school databanks currently being expanded. Eventually the information in a comprehensive, permanent record could be shared with employers when an individual applies for a job. " 3.
