Breaking Free from US Domination: The Power of Article 6

I know you are are well, and, I'm following this space. I mean, I like it a lot, but, I do have a really crucial question. I'm a bit more to to the point. You know? What will happen if we we we will ban United States?

I mean,

what what are the possibilities they will implement a a case fire? And I don't know. Do they really care about that?

Was that your question?

Well, let's suppose we we get to the article six, so we will ban United States from, UN. What will be the impact?

Thank you very much for your question. Brother Shait, would you mind answering that question or should we?

To be honest with you, don't I don't really find it to be a very serious question. I find it to be a very emotional and basically a sort of a despondent question. Imagining that because the United Nations hasn't been effective up until now, it can never be effective without recognizing what has made it ineffective up until now, which is the presence and the domination of The United States. When you have all of the countries of the world working together in a consensus, in a global consensus, being prevented by The United States, it's irrational to believe that they can do nothing. The only thing that has been preventing them from being effective up until now has been the domination of The United States.

So if The United States is removed, then there won't be any obstacle to prevent the United Nations from operating effectively. You know, I wanted to just say something kind of with regards to his question because the question is based on on how badly things have been for all of our lifetimes. As long as any of us who are online now have been alive, things have been bad and The United States has been dominating the planet and The United States has been one of the ways that they've been dominating the planet is through their domination of the United Nations. So it's kind of inconceivable for us to imagine a world in which the United Nations does what it's supposed to do. I understand that.

I totally understand that. And I understand why people for example think, well, why don't why rather than rather than kicking The US out of the UN, why don't we just disband the UN? Why don't why don't all of the countries, you know, of the world, all of the member states just resign their memberships with the UN and, you know, start another organization or something like that? I understand this this is a kind of a desperation and an expression of hopelessness because we haven't seen anything up until now that gives us a reason for optimism because we've we've only lived in an era in which The United States has dominated the planet. So it's hard for us to imagine that not being the case.

But with regards to the UN, I would just say, and it has been said before earlier in this space, I think, that there's nothing wrong with the United Nations on paper. You know, there's nothing wrong with the Charter on paper, the principles of the Charter. There's nothing wrong with any of that. The problem with a broken promise isn't the promise. You know.

The problem with an unfulfilled contract isn't the contract. The problem is the one who's breaking the promise. The problem is the one who's failing to fulfill their contractual obligations. But if you read the United Nations Charter, it's good. And it's so good that The United States never would have agreed to sign it if they ever thought they would have to live up to it.

But these people, The US, the West, the the Western colonizing nations in 1945, they never thought colonization would end. They never thought that the colonized countries in the world would rise. They never thought that the global South would rise. They never thought that their own power would diminish. They thought they were gonna be in control forever.

So they never thought that they were gonna have to be called to account for what they signed on the UN Charter. But now, you know, all of these countries that have abused the world for decades, they have us all locked in this room, the United Nations, the General Assembly. They have us all locked in this room, and they wanted us to be locked into this room so that they could jail us, so that they could dominate us. But since 1945, we've grown and they've weakened over the course of those decades. The the the power dynamics have changed in the world.

So now we have the opportunity actually to take over that room. We have the opportunity to take over that organization and we can make sure that that contract actually gets fulfilled. We can make sure that that promise comes to fruition and the way that we can do that is by getting the principal, the primary promise breaker out of the organization and that's in the charter to do it. So there's not a reason to believe that this can't be done and there's not a reason to believe that the United Nations, if it isn't being dominated by the world's biggest criminal, can't be transformed from criminal syndicate run by the world's biggest criminal into what it is supposed to be or what it what it has claimed that it was established to be, there's no reason why we can't make it that. And And I think that I think that people just have to change their perceptions.

You have to recalibrate your your perceptions of The United States and recalibrate your perceptions of the West because the fact of the matter is, the reality is, and you can see it. If you if you understand how to interpret events that are going on in the world today, you can see very clearly that The United States isn't what it used to be. They don't have the power that they used to have, and the only power that they have is your perception of their power. The only way that they can continue to to control and dominate the planet is because you just think that they do. You know, it's like it's like a like a like a slave on a plantation and the master is in the house and he died already, but you don't know he's dead.

So you think he's still in the house, but he's not there. It's an empty house and you can leave anytime you want. It's just a matter of changing our perception.

I'm so glad you mentioned that, brother Shade, because I was on a space last week, and they were talking about how the you know, in the Quran, it says, you know, like, they they magically control the brain of the people to think they are useless, they cannot do stand up against them. So the what you said was exactly what what I've I've I've came into my mind. You know, when Suleiman passed away, peace be upon him, the jinn didn't know that the master has passed away until the the ants eaten from the body and they they realized then Suleiman, peace be upon him, has passed away. So this is some sort of some sort of magic. It's not magic per se though that we know.

Sort of magic that has been colonizing the brain and brainwashing the people thinking that we cannot stand against this power, the superpower of the world or the supplier of the United Nation or the the militarily advanced country. You see what I mean? Yeah. Yeah. So this sort of this sort of penalization.

Exactly. At this point, the most and this is why we talk on Middle Nations so much about decolonization, psychological decolonization. Because that's really the last remnants of colonization. Because we are we have the ability to be liberated now. We have the practical ability to be liberated.

Okay, not all at once, not overnight, but step by step and we're moving in that direction. And the main point is they don't have the ability to colonize us anymore. They don't have the ability to dominate us anymore. The only way that they can do it is through is psychologically, is through our minds, our mentality, through us believing that they're still what they used to be. That our memories of their power are carrying them into the future and that they still have that power, but they don't.

They're running on vapors at this point. They're running on fumes. The United States is running on fumes. And like I've talked about many many times on the channel, people like Joe Biden I mean, it's it's it's almost a joke to even have to say it. People like Joe Biden aren't running anything.

They're not making any decisions. The the man really should be in a care home. It's it's it's it's actually quite ruthless that they're even running him for office. He needs to just be in bed. But the owners and controllers of global financialized capital have completely captured the state, have completely captured state power in The United States, Completely captured the political process, completely captured the politicians, the government, and so on.

And they don't have any loyalty to what they own. The one who is owned has to be loyal to the owner, not the other way around. And so the owner, it doesn't have to be loyal to The United States. They don't have to be loyal to the government. They don't have to be loyal to the the interests of the population.

That's the last on their list. They're loyal to their shareholders. They're loyal to their own pockets, to their own bank accounts, to their own dividends. And if they can get more of that by partnering with the global south and by working with BRICS, well, that's what they'll do. It it doesn't matter what The US wants.

It doesn't matter what Joe Biden wants. It doesn't matter what Donald Trump wants. It doesn't matter what any of the politicians want or the lobbyists. We we have to really understand that the the the the whole power dynamics have changed drastically. Over the course of the last twenty years, there's been a huge change in where the power lies.

There's been it's been an ongoing process, a transfer of power from the public sector to the private sector. That's been going on my whole lifetime. But it has accelerated rapidly over the last twenty years to where now the people who are making decisions are in the private sector. And as I've talked about many times, they're an anational nation unto themselves. They float above borders.

They're a supernational, super sovereign, sector elite, and they don't care one way or another what's in the interest of The United States. They don't care one way or another what's in the interest of Europe, and you can see that by everything that's been going on in Europe, at least since the Ukraine war and even before then. So there's not there's not a reason to believe that The United States as a nation, a as a country, the way we used to think about it, as a government, has the power to do what they used to do and to to pursue colonization and domination the way they used to do. So I I I think that it's really, really important for us to understand how the power dynamics have changed and to to shake off the sort of shackles of our own memory of colonization and domination because that's the only thing at this point that's really standing in our way and it's really the the main obstacle to us achieving our own liberation.

This is an institution that serves The United States, you know, and and and when it does not serve The United States interest, what they will do is they will try to undermine it. They will try to, you know, make sure that, you know, it it it, you know, it it it serves its interest. Right? If they did not, they will undermine it. Right?

So, to to to invoke, you know, the article, you know, six and and kick The US out is like, you know, kicking the United Nations itself, you know, you know, out. So I don't think you know you know, I wish other countries, right, other, middle powers, other rising powers could come together and create institutions, like a human, right, that that could, you know, replace because this is dominated by by The United States. Right? So, unless unless that's that's done. Right?

The The US will will continue to serve the UN, you know, for its own, you know, purposes and interest. And, and and I don't know how, you know, possible it is to invoke article six because because that would be the end of the UN, which I'm not against. I mean, I wish you know, the UN is not serving interest of of of all humanity. It should

Let me let me interrupt you, brother.

Shake on.

I I know where I know I think you've made your point. Let me say, first of all, it would not be the end of the UN. It would be the beginning of the UN because we haven't seen it operating as it as it was supposed to until now. Now when I say supposed to, what I mean is what it said on paper. We all know that it was a what it that it was created as a colonizing institution.

We all know that. You you didn't say anything that that that everyone doesn't know. Believe me. We know why the United Nations was created. We know why The United States created it.

We know why, for example, The United States did not join the League of Nations before that because it wouldn't have it it it would it would have to submit to multilateralism and consensus and the way they rigged the United Nations from the beginning was so that they wouldn't have to do that and that's the only reason why they joined. So we know perfectly well what their intention was but here's the beautiful thing about it Because of their dishonesty, because of their hypocrisy, because they can't be open about their intentions and they have to make everyone believe that they're beautiful and democratic and wonderful and love all of these enlightened values and so forth, they had to put on paper these conditions of accountability and equality between nations knowing perfectly well in their minds that they were never gonna have to be held to account for that. They they thought because what their real belief is always from from pre enlightenment age to pre modern age to enlightenment age to modern age to postmodern age, they believe in one thing and one thing only and that's might makes right. We know that. So they thought that they could put on paper all of these wonderful values, of these noble principles and they would never have to live up to it because they're strong enough that no one could ever force them to be held to account.

That's the beautiful thing about it because it's a legal document. So they put it on paper thinking that they would never be called to account for it, but they can be called to account for it. And they never thought that that would happen. That's what I was saying earlier. They never thought that they would be if they thought if they thought for a second that they would ever have to be held account held to account, and actually have to abide by the UN Charter, well, never would have signed it in the first place.

But they did sign it because they thought, because in their arrogance, they thought that they were gonna be powerful forever. And they thought that the colonized countries would be weak and subjugated and enslaved forever, but things change. And now we have an opportunity. The world has changed. The dynamics have changed.

Power dynamics have changed. And the reality of America's own subjugation to their corporate elite provides us the opportunity to actually call to account The United States and invoke Article six and have them removed from the United Nations and then we can see the United Nations actually operate according to the principles of the Charter even though no one who ever established it in the first place ever thought it would have to do that but we can make sure that it does Insha'Allah.

Hello. Thank you guys for allowing me to to speak out here. I'm curious on what are the steps that are to be taken in order for The U for us to vote Article six? And in addition to that, what is the probability that this happens? And if it does happen, is there the chance that America sort of becomes like a a rabbit dog and sort of will attack others and or cause turmoil in the world because now it is no longer a member of the UN?

Thanks for the question. Can I answer I wanna I'll let someone else answer the question about the steps, but I wanna answer the last part first about America potentially going rogue and becoming a rabid doll?

Yeah. That's a very important question. I think the best person to answer that question would be yourself. I will ask Sister Nisa to answer the steps, please, because she was really good last time when she explained about the steps. Sister Nisa, please go ahead.

She lost connection. Sister Samira, would you like would you mind explaining the steps?

Yes. Sure. So the steps are that we are waiting for the petition to reach 100,000, and that's the number that we have given ourselves to approach member states, the UN member states, countries that are within the United Nations. They are the only ones that can invoke the article six as they as they are the members of the of the organization, so not the public. So the public will only give them the the courage to invoke article six in the United Nations.

So once we reach the 100,000, we will approach those nations that have been affected by The US hegemony of impunity. All the things that they have done like Iraq, Afghanistan, Algeria, all these countries. And there are also a group of states called the group friends of the UN Charter that safeguarded the United Nations that are trying to make sure that the United Nations charter is strictly followed so that they will the global peace and security will be maintained. So we will approach all these countries with the petition telling them that the public is behind you. They support this move.

So please go ahead and involve article six in the United Nations. Once that's invoked, then it goes to the Security Council, US security council, and that's where there's gonna be a a vote on on that. And, of course, there will be other legal things so that The United States can defend itself, but then we will prepare, obviously, all the the legal requirements needed because you'll have to prove they have we have to prove to to to the United Nations that they actually The United States actually does violate the United Nations charges numerous times and persistently as the article six requires. And and then that it will go for a vote, The United States is not allowed to vote. It's supposed to abstain because this is a matter that is related to itself, and the rest of the members will have to vote.

And they will then recommend their vote to the general assembly where it where, again, it will be voted, and two third majority will then pass the the the resolution or the the invocation of article six fix of The United States from the from the UN. These are the processes or the steps that we will be taking, Michelle.

Thank you so much, sister Samira. I just wanna add one thing to what you said, just an example. I myself spoke with many politicians in The UK, and they for the first step, they wanna they want to know we've got the right amount of numbers of signatures. They wanna know the people are behind them. They wanna know if they are people.

This is what people want for in order for them to discuss it in the parl their parliament, then their parliament can discuss it in The United in The United Nation. So this is one small example that I'd like to add to sister Semira. I will go to the second questions you have with Brother Sheed. Go ahead Brother Sheed, please.

Yeah, it's a question that comes up a lot because everyone knows the mentality of The United States, the predatory mentality of The United States and the sort of cowboy mentality of The United States. So the idea is well if they they get kicked out of the United Nations then maybe they're gonna go rogue and they're gonna go crazy and nothing will stop them. But this is obviously, this is you're completely misunderstanding and I don't mean the the one who asked the question, but this is a misunderstanding that people have, think, that the The United States has not been held in check-in any way whatsoever by being a member of the United Nations. The world has been held in check because of The United States being at the United Nations. So we we think that America is is this rabid dog, this wild dog that's gonna go crazy if it gets kicked out of The United Nations, but that's because everyone else's guard dogs have been on leashes until now.

But if everyone else's guard dogs are taken off of the leash, then that wild dog, that rabbit dog is gonna run away. It's not gonna get into a fight. You understand what I'm saying? They've been able to do what they've been able to do, all of the crimes that they've committed around the world, at least partially because of and in my opinion largely because of their domination of the United Nations. So if they are removed from the United Nations and they don't have that mechanism anymore, they don't have that that network that's under their thumb anymore that's keeping all of the countries of the world in chains in the general assembly where they just have to come there and be told what the boss wants and what the boss tells them is okay and what the boss tells them is not okay and in they they they can go there and express their opinion and the boss tells them no, you're wrong and vetoes whatever they say.

That's the system and if you can remove that from the system then the rest of the world will finally have a say and you'll you'll you'll see the the the relative power of The United States and the relative ability of The United States to project its power internationally will be dramatically and drastically decreased if they're removed from the United Nations. So I I understand the the fear, but this fear is based on a perception of The United States and their ability to project their power and their ability to get away with crimes that has only been made possible because of their domination of the United Nations. So you remove that factor from it and they won't be as brave as they've been since 1945. This veto power,

just because of the better power, nothing human can constructively do or implement like, decide or something measure. So this to power, is it possible Yeah. To approach? Or Okay.

Okay. No. I think I understand the question. First of all, thank you for for your nice compliments and kind words. I really appreciate it and thanks for following the Middle Nation channel.

With regards to the veto power, that's also a comment that we get frequently because the idea is and and it's part part of a part of it is our own the way that we've been presenting the Article six campaign because of the fact that we started this campaign in the context of the genocide in Gaza and the consistent and persistent vetoes of a ceasefire by The United States. And of course the historical reality that the conflict between the Palestinians and the Israelis would have been resolved decades ago had it not been for The United States and their veto power, specifically their veto power on the UN Security Council. So we ourselves often in talking about the invocation of Article six, we often highlight the issue of the veto because it's a very stark example of an American abuse of its power and a violation of the principles of the UN Charter. So I understand. But the veto first of all, I'll just tell you just from a practical point of view.

Getting rid of the veto power would be more difficult than disbanding the United Nations. They would rather disband the United Nations than get rid of something called the veto power. That's that's calling for a change, a fundamental reform of the system in the United Nations rather than what we're doing, which is calling for activating something that's already in the system that hasn't been used. You understand the difference? We're not talking about changing something, we're talking about enacting something that's there already.

We're we're calling for the terms of the contract to be lived up to rather than saying we want to change the terms now. So that's a bigger thing that you're asking for practically, practically. Not I'm not talking morally or ideologically or anything like that, but just practically speaking trying to get a fundamental change in the operation of the United Nations is a much more difficult thing to try to advocate for and try to achieve than just calling for the activation of an article that's already in the Charter. So just practically speaking, that's not very realistic. And on another level, it's also not practical because if you've noticed, if you followed it at all when they talk about veto power because it's an issue that has arisen.

There are countries in the global south, for example, India has been very vocal with regards to wanting a reform in the veto system. But what they want is an expansion of who gets to have a veto. They wanted to include the temporary members of the Security Council, not just the permanent members. So any reform that's going to happen is going to be countries that want to also have veto power rather than taking it away from everyone or taking it away from one. They no one wants to get rid of it.

Practically speaking, no one is gonna wanna get no one no one is going to agree to getting rid of the veto power. No one who has it is going to agree to it, first of all. And the the the countries that don't have it want it. So it's a very difficult thing to actually try to advocate for achieving something like that, practically speaking. But I I I agree with with the the the that the veto power system is a serious problem.

And that's that's part of the way in which like the brother was talking about earlier, that's part of how the United Nations was rigged from the beginning. And someone asked a question we we were doing a a TikTok live yesterday or before yesterday. I may don't even remember now. And someone asked a question about who would be the next leader at the United Nations? Who will provide leadership at the United Nations if The US is gone?

Just this question shows a mindset that we have because of The United States, the way The United States has manipulated and dominated the United Nations, We don't even know what consensus looks like anymore. How consensus is supposed to work. There's not supposed to be a leader. It's the global consensus. It's the whole global community.

It's the whole global majority working together, discussing together, deciding together, consulting together. There doesn't have to be a leader at the United Nations. That was supposed to be the whole point in terms of the values that they and the principles that they talk about in that that every nation large and small will be equal. Well, where's the where's the leadership there? There's not supposed to be that but because of the the way that America has been so such a hegemonic power globally and a dominant power at the United Nations, we can't even conceive of a United Nations without a leader.

But there doesn't have to be one. So I agree with the idea about the veto and I think that that's something that could be potentially achieved after The United States is removed. But I don't think it's something because obviously once The United States is removed there's going to have to be some comprehensive structural reform at the United Nations for obvious reasons because The United States is has infiltrated and infected every branch and every limb of the United Nations. So there will have to be serious reforms, but I don't think any serious reforms, any useful, any effective, any positive and productive reforms can even be possible as long as The United States remains a member of the United Nations.

How what role does this would play in this invoking the Article six? And how are we you were talking about, you know, liberating ourselves from the hegemony of this group, which is, I believe, the part of every country's elite establishment. Do we become part of it? Is is that how we liberate ourselves from their, you know, hegemony? I'm just trying to understand what role they have in all of this in kicking USA out of the United Nations or what interest they have in this in all of this.

Yeah. Thank you. And I understand the question, and I think I think there's there's it's there's actually a lot to try to untangle with regards to what you're asking about and and and it would require a lot of a lot of discussion and I think a lot of clarification and explanation, but I'll try and put it I'll try to I'll try to address it, but but I'll I'll warn you that my answer is going to be inadequate to the question. First of all, the the what I refer to as the owners and controllers of global financialized capital, the OCGFC, I have explained on my channel a few times. This isn't a monolithic group.

It's not we're not talking about a group of people meeting in dark rooms, you know, over a glowing map of the world in cloaks and hoods and so on. They have divergent interests. There it's not one group with one unified position on everything. There are coalitions of interests within what you can call the OCGFC, the owners and controllers of global financialized capital. There are coalitions of interests in different sectors.

Financialized capital is going to be different from capital that is derived from productive activity and so on. So there's different different interests that that these people will have. And they will take different positions with regards to what they want to see happen with The United States. There are some of them who will be aligned with the neocons in Washington and there are some of them who will not be. In my opinion, there will be a significant proportion of them who would be in favor of The United States being removed from the United Nations.

In my opinion, there will be a considerable number who would be in favor of that because it goes with the trend of isolating The United States, disconnecting to to one degree or another, disconnecting America from the rest of the world and letting it sort of be its isolationist. This is a trend that started, especially you saw it under Trump, and and Biden has more or less been continuing that. There's a there's a there's a trend of we don't need America to be the most powerful anymore because as I've talked about also with one of the reasons why the pivot to the global South is taking place in the first place, why the center of gravity of the global economy is pivoting to the South and to the East is purely demographics that the Western countries including The United States are falling demographically, some of them quite drastically. So there's not that much of a business future for companies relative to the global South where they have a much more robust demographics. So depending on what your interests are, if you're if you're from this class of the OCGFC, depending on where where your money is organized and what your interests are, you may not be inclined to continue to prop up The United States as the boss of the world and the policeman of the world and so on because as I said before they're not that interested anymore in the the old colonial model, the old imperialist model which is the that you have the the imperial nation, the imperial country, the imperialist country that is going all around the world and extracting the resources and extracting the wealth from all of the colonized nations and sending it all back to to the imperialist country to make that country rich.

Well, they're not interested in making any particular country rich now. They're only interested in their own wealth. So I think that it's conceivable that there will be large segments of the owners and controllers of global financialized capital who would be perfectly fine with seeing The United States removed from the UN. And what was the other question now?

The super technology that's gonna take us to Mars. Isn't America the exclusive producer of that?

Technology to go to Mars. You have to that's not my area. I can't really talk about that. They're interested in in in countries that can produce technology, but that doesn't necessarily mean that they're interested in the welfare or the or the wealth of those countries. As long as they can get the work done, they don't care where it's done.
