An agreement on migration adopted by the United Nations six years ago redefined immigration ‘from a privilege to a right,’ said Alex Newman.
A new wave of global mass migration has the potential to loosen the bonds that unite people as a nation, with individual countries gradually losing their national identities, American journalist and Epoch Times contributor Alex Newman says.
One of the objectives of mass migration is “to undermine national homogeneity,” Mr. Newman said, citing late United Nations migration chief Peter Sutherland. “They want to create multicultural societies, whereby people have very little in common with each other.”
Mr. Newman said that traditionally, the nation-state has been seen mostly as an extension of the family.
People of each nation had a lot in common, he said.
For example, in Europe, each nation shared a culture, language, and ethnicity, such as the Hungarians, Finns, Frenchmen, or Germans.
Even if nations conquered each other and several nations were governed as one big empire, they still retained their national identity, Mr. Newman said.
However, mass migration undermines “the nation-state itself,” and this is done “very deliberately and very strategically,” he asserted.
“We’re watching this happen very rapidly in Europe,” he said. “I think Europe is the canary in the coal mine.”
Natives in Minority
Now, in big cities in the western and northern parts of Europe, “the native population is in the minority,” Mr. Newman said.
According to the UK Parliament’s report, 37 percent of London’s population was born outside the UK in 2021.
When native people in these big cities find themselves surrounded by people of other nationalities who do not have anything in common with them and do not share the same language, culture, and religion, they will start questioning the idea of the nation, Mr. Newman said.
“Why do we have these arbitrary lines on a map called a nation? Why not just be European citizens—which is of course step one—and then ultimately, global citizens?” he said. “That is the ultimate objective. They probably won’t come out of the closet too openly until they think it’s irreversible.”
The situation in America is different because America as a nation was not established based on any ethnicity, common culture, or common religion, Mr. Newman said. “America was a nation based on an idea,” he said.
The idea, enshrined in America’s founding documents, is “that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights,” and the governments are established to “secure these rights,” Mr. Newman said, citing the Declaration of Independence.
That idea “attracted people from all different nations from around the world to come here and settle here and become part of the American nation,” he said.
That idea is “under attack as well” in an effort “to undermine the nation, and ultimately, the nation-state in preparation for regional governance, and then global governance,” Mr. Newman asserted.
Global Government
The critical part of the shift toward globalization is the regionalization process, Mr. Newman said.
“A lot of the globalist strategists of the last couple of generations have openly argued that the path to true global government will be through regional governments,” he said. “Then you merge all of these into a single global system.”
Mr. Newman considers supranational organizations, such as the European Union, Eurasian Economic Union, and African Union, to be regional governments.
As for the global government, the United Nations already has “all the attributes” of a government, such as a police force, military, court system, multiple law enforcement programs, environmental bureaucracy, health bureaucracy, and an intellectual property system, Mr. Newman said.
If the court succeeds in prosecuting Mr. Netanyahu, it will create a precedent for global jurisdiction over every human being on the planet, Mr. Newman said.
The Eurasian Economic Union, consisting of five post-Soviet countries, is formally a project for economic integration in the former Soviet region with a goal to establish a common market mimicking the single market of the European Union (EU), according to UK-based Chatham House.
The Eurasian union—established in 2014 and joined by Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Armenia—also mirrors the EU’s institutions, the British think tank said.
All these show that globalists “want more power,” Mr. Newman said. “If they’re not stopped, we will end up with a one world political, economic, and potentially even religious system.”
Mass Migration Redefined
The United Nations adopted in 2018 a new international agreement that radically changed the definition of immigration “from a privilege to a right,” Mr. Newman explained.
According to the compact, a person has a right to migrate to another country where life is better, especially if the person lives in a poor country, a country plagued by gang violence, or for any other reason, Mr. Newman said.
The agreement is “not technically enforceable” in courts, and no one will be sanctioned for not obeying it, so it is considered “soft law,” Mr. Newman explained.
However, when it gets embedded into national legal codes and judicial decisions, it becomes “hard law,” Mr. Newman pointed out.
“The objective of the hard law is to totally restructure all the immigration codes [and] legal systems in the world to facilitate enormous movements of people,” primarily into Western countries, Mr. Newman asserted.
An important component of the compact is censorship consisting of a two-pronged approach, Mr. Newman said. The first is propagandizing people into accepting the mass migration; the second is silencing those who speak against it, he added.
The compact was endorsed by the General Assembly of the United Nations in 2018 by overwhelming majority of 152 votes in favor to five votes against (Czechia, Hungary, Israel, Poland, and the United States), with 12 abstentions, according to a statement.
Special Interest Groups
Mr. Newman said that although there are some special interest groups that can benefit from mass immigration to America, such as big businesses needing cheap labor or Democrat politicians allegedly wanting new voters, there is an “international coalition of globalists, jihadists, communists, socialists, and others” who use it as a means to destroy the United States as both a nation and an ideal.
That network of people wants to move the entire world, including the United States, toward a radically different system of government that is much more akin to the system that exists in communist China, Mr. Newman said.
Among them is a group of people who have been in the United States for generations and who have benefited greatly from the American system, Mr. Newman explained. They became very wealthy and gained enormous amounts of power because of America, but now they have betrayed America and its system of government, he continued.
The existence of such a coalition between people and groups with possibly different worldviews and goals was revealed by Rich Higgins, director for strategic planning at the National Security Council during the Trump administration, Mr. Newman added.
Mr. Newman said he thinks that one of the reasons for encouraging mass immigration is to “bring in new cultural understanding of America when it comes to the role of government, the economy, etc.”
The notion that America got rich by exploiting other people and other countries by extracting their natural resources and using people there as slave labor prevails in many parts of Latin America and is instilled in people from a very young age, Mr. Newman explained.
That narrative is reinforced on immigrants by media and public schools in the United States, he said.
The same narrative has been promoted in Europe, where the newly arrived immigrants are being told that “they arrived in a racist society that’s built on white supremacy” and exploitation, Mr. Newman pointed out.
Immigrants who learned in their own country how bad America is and continue hearing the same upon arriving in the United States would naturally respond to it, “Hey, we should overthrow the system,” Mr. Newman said.
