Is the school program known as The International Baccalaureate, part of the curriculum in your town’s public elementary and/or high school?
In towns like Bedford, NH this UN/UNESCO created program was purchased from the The International Baccalaureate Organization (IBO) using our local tax dollars. This means that money that is supposed to be spent under local educational control basically gets paid to a foreign Non-Governmental Organization (NGO), in this case, located in Geneva Switzerland, which then determines the mission and goals of the school, dispenses the often controversial materials, and even corrects the tests. Yes, you read that right, the tests are mailed off to a foreign country to be graded.
When a school gains ‘acceptance’ into the program, it is deemed an IB “World School”. Few schools are rejected since all that is required is to comply is to commit your school’s mission and your staff’s mission to the ‘mission’ of the IBO, and to pay the money. But what of this mission?
Despite adamant denials from school boards that teaching children to be ‘global citizens’ is not teaching them the mission of the UN and nothing more than seeking an understanding of other cultures and/or speaking foreign languages, IB’s mission and agenda is indeed aligned to that of the UN’s — all based on documents such as Agenda 21 and the Millennium Development Goals. IB promotes the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which is basically a sort of world declaration that states that your rights are only valid so long as they do not interfere with the ‘principles and purposes of the UN’. This is in complete conflict with our own Constitution and Bill of Rights in which your rights are derived from “God” or birth. We have emphasized before that these documents are in complete conflict with the documents that define our nation, and are in conflict with our national sovereignty. Slick ads promoting the UDHR were even running on our public TV station — despite the fact residents are not allowed to use the station for anything political — for almost a year.
Be sure to scroll down to item 29 (3) when viewing the UDHR:
Article 29.
(3) These rights and freedoms may in no case be exercised contrary to the purposes and principles of the United Nations.
Children enrolled in IB are not just trained in collective ideologies, but in a course called ‘Theory of Knowledge’ are taught to question their values. One student who wrote to a fellow researcher stated she now looks at communism as ‘not so bad’ after having participated in the IB. Students are trained to support the redistribution of the global wealth and the UN’s agenda in general. However, despite all the evidence that IBO is an arm of the UN, IB zealots will often completely ignore these facts when presenting the program to the taxpayers for approval.
Most who are pushing the IB will claim it has nothing to do with the UN. This is pure nonsense. If you don’t believe it, watch this video. The speaker is Paul Collier, Professor of Economics and Director of the Centre for the Study of African Economies, Oxford University. From 1998-2003, he was Director of the Research Development Department of the World Bank.
In the video, Collier OPENLY advocates we ‘Tear Up the 11th Commandment — National Sovereignty’ in order to solve world poverty through global governance. As usual America is mentioned as the bogeyman. This material was included in one ‘lesson’ suggested for teaching within the IB Community Theme Website, the IBO’s repository of resources for IB teachers.
Is this the kind of anti-American nonsense you want taught in your public schools with YOUR TAX DOLLARS? Find out what your public schools are teaching and get down to your school board and demand that no tax dollars be sent to Geneva Switzerland so that anti-American UN NGOs can direct your child’s education. It is nothing more than INDOCTRINATION for the world government in order to redistribute America’s wealth.
The shocking comment comes at around 4:10…
We are at war for the soul of this country. Those who wish to keep the ‘republic’ had better start investigating and opposing if need be, what is going on in our public institutions such as our schools, and take a more active role in how public money is being spent. Not one more penny of our tax dollars should be spent to support the long tentacles of the UN into our local affairs.

Update: Go to the actual video on YouTube and read some of the pro-communist comments being made by students who have totally swallowed this claptrap from this elitist! And still the school board in Bedford and other places insist that we are not teaching our children to accept global government and socialism within the IB philosophy.
