Anthony C. Zinni, Retired US Marine Corps four-star general (Apr 15, 2008 at Cornell University) Retired US Marine Corps four-star general Anthony C. Zinni has three suggestions for America’s next president: Get to know and truly understand the world as it is; devise a strategic design for engaging in that world; and rebuild diplomatic relationships with the world’s nations while restructuring government at home. Zinni, a former commander in chief of US Central Command, gave his first public talk, billed as “The New World Order,” as a Frank HT Rhodes Class of 1956 Professor in Kennedy Hall’s Call Auditorium April 15. In a swift and personalized summation of recent history, from the collapse of the Soviet Union to the final year of the Bush administration, Zinni discussed globalization, the emergence of non-state entities and movements — both good and bad — the rise of the information age, climate change, global diasporas and the advent of failed states in a hostile environment. This 12-minute tour de force brought him to the meat of his presentation — making sense of the comprehensive change the world has undergone since 1989. The post-Cold War “peace dividend” never panned out, said Zinni, and “the new world order” is emerging as complex and volatile, requiring a nuanced understanding.

This guy, it seems to me raises some important points. His summary of the past 50 years or so of world change seemed to encapsulate the important trends of this period in an accessible way. Unfortunately, I think his thinking after this part of his speech didn’t really provide any constructive information or anything new. I do agree that the new world order is not fully comprehended by our leaders and I do agree that problems we face are global problems.

Not only do we throw the U.S. military at global problems, but we slaughter tens of thousands of people! This is undeniably immoral.

I got to go and on: Sludge…, I thought it was a bad joke then I found out people were dying from the fumes, then GMO, my God half the Universities were emptied over that one from Intellectuals screaming out, media controlled by corporations that are now engaged in shooting down the present President, psychotropic drugs that cost me the only two nephews in my family and the bought out whistle blowers run by Corporate picked nominees. Is making money done only by the elimination of consumers.

Last one,I hear that Americans aren’t paying their mortgages,and I watch thousands and thousands of homes get blown to bits,by tornadoes,floods,forest fires,cyclones, hurricanes and the insurance companies call them Acts of God,in short,they don’t pay leaving the government to pay for the relief, then pay the banks for the mortgage leaving the sinistered to join the 10 millions out there all ready. Would this be one of the cracks that is mentioned in the fabric of today’s climate changed world.

OMG…this General is another pawn of the Illuminati to deceive the audience into accepting the New World Order…If the audience knew what the New World Order, the North American Union, the RFID human chip, the removal of habeas corpus and the posse comietus really meant, the audience would revolt!

MrNaryal says
Very Intelligent General
JimProfitCat says
Germany is becoming like America used to be? I don’t think so. It’s still quite the police state, and ironically doesn’t want any muttering of the word “nazi”.
Like it or not. The nazis were not the badguys of world war 2. They were brutal, hateful, biggoted, batshit crazy mofos. And they still weren’t the badguys. That just says alot about us.

The Constitution stands.. We will crush the New World Order under our work boots.
noobler9 says
I watched this because a legitimate official saying the words new world order sounded interesting, I looked at the comments and realized
three letters, N W and O, brings out the crazies at night, lol
and they’re pissed because his first comments are, “we had a conspiracy theory about the soviet union being so scary, and it wasn’t”
and this relates so well with the crazies’ notions, that they feel threatened because if his story is true, then they’re ridiculously like him at that time, naive :P
merrittolsen says
@JimProfitCat you don’t know what you are talking about…i lived in germany for 5 years and the biggest mistake i have ever made in my life was coming back to the police state of america…in europe if you have a back pack they befriend you and ask where you are from and where are you traveling to….in america (where the only concern is self and money) they call you a bum…you are not free in america…try traveling and see how often you get harassed by the police..
