This and the 'HAARP conspiracy' posts from last night are on the upswing again
the tea party needs its paranoid citizens kept in line with fear.

Some reading for those worried about Agenda 21: http://planning.utah.gov/super/SUPER...0Ordinance.pdf

It's a document about zoning in the US.

I promise I shall be polite in my reply. For starters, may I inquire as to what sources you referrenced in order to make your grossly over-exaggerated and fallacious claim?

The IB Organization is an NGO of UNESCO. There are currently 777 IB Diploma High Schools in the entire U.S., 90% of those are public schools. The IBDP is only for students in grades 11 & 12.

There are 474 IB MYPs (Middle Years Programme) for ages 11-15, in the U.S.

There are 341 PYP (Primary Years Programmes) for ages 3-11 in the U.S.

The total number of IB schools in the U.S. represents less than .005% of all public and private schools in the United States. However, they represent over 40% of IB schools worldwide.

Now, I am here to tell you that IB's primary purpose is to create "internationalmindedness". This thread is about Agenda 21. I mentioned IB way back in the beginning because especially the PYP and MYP are nothing but pure UNESCO propaganda designed to create "global citizens".

The following is a link to IBO's website. I have pre-searched the term "sustainability" for you. There are 10 pages of links and documents dealing with the topic.

Here is the link to all of the documents and info at ibo.org related to Agenda 21, also 10 pages worth.

I will give you fair warning. I have been called the #1 IB critic in the country by the Washington Post. So if you want to do battle when it comes to IB, may I suggest you do a little homework first.

Nice to see someone who knows what they are talking about. I will relish following the exchanges, if any posters decide to challenge you.

Why, thank you, southward bound. That is very kind of you. Despite researching and following this nefarious organization's activities in our schools for the past 8 1/2 years, I think what never ceases to amaze me is the defensive DENIAL on the part of IB supporters of the IB/UNESCO/Agenda 21 connection. The lies, the covering up of money spent on IB, the lavish out of state "IB teacher workshops" which are MANDATORY if a school wants to be able to use the IB logo.

IB is a scam. Administrators are scamming the Feds by attaining Title I grants (2009 ARRA) spending money on IB when they are only Targeted Assistance Title I schools, not the 40% required by law. And we are talking millions and millions of dollars. Now I have personally stopped two Superintendents from misappropriating Title I funds for IB (one in NY, one in Ohio), but I'm just one person against a global organization. But the emperor has no clothes.

Check out this page. I challenge anyone to refute the fact that as of IBO's website today, this page clearly refers to the Earth Charter, Sustainability and UNESCO.

And the specific document for Agenda 21. Remember folks, this is for 3-11 year olds.

And I'll tell you something else. Glenn Beck refuses to touch the IB issue, yet he just wrote a "fiction" book called Agenda 21. I have lost all respect for Glenn Beck. I had even appeared on his show, once. But you know why he won't go after IB? Because his BFF Jon Huntsman Jr. is an IB Daddy and Huntsman Sr. gave some big endowment to, I forget which University in PA, for a global studies division.
