Second, effective methods to address and resolve world conflicts, transparent decisions.

Point three, the immediate suppression - and that is something everyone's calling for - of the anti-democratic mechanism known as the veto, the veto on decisions of the Security Council.

Let me give you a recent example. The immoral veto of the United States allowed the Israelis, with impunity, to destroy Lebanon. Right in front of all of us as we stood there watching, a resolution in the council was prevented.

G: Can't get much more specific than that.

Fourthly, we have to strengthen, as we've always said, the role and the powers of the secretary general of the United Nations.

G: LOL! He's actually telling the Secretary General of the United Nations his job!

Yesterday, the secretary general practically gave us his speech of farewell. And he recognized that over the last 10 years, things have just gotten more complicated; hunger, poverty, violence, human rights violations have just worsened. That is the tremendous consequence of the collapse of the United Nations system and American hegemonistic pretensions.

G: That's a UN spanking well deserved.

Madam, Venezuela a few years ago decided to wage this battle within the United Nations by recognizing the United Nations, as members of it that we are, and lending it our voice, our thinking.

Our voice is an independent voice to represent the dignity and the search for peace and the reformulation of the international system; to denounce persecution and aggression of hegemonistic forces on the planet.

G: "To denounce persecution and aggression of hegemonistic forces on the planet." Bravo Hugo!

This is how Venezuela has presented itself. Bolivar's home has sought a nonpermanent seat on the Security Council.

Let's see. Well, there's been an open attack by the U.S. government, an immoral attack, to try and prevent Venezuela from being freely elected to a post in the Security Council.

The imperium is afraid of truth, is afraid of independent voices. It calls us extremists, but they are the extremists.

G: Can US Christians stop believing and think long enough to learn the truth from this man? Or, do they insist that their fueror be obeyed and are willing to lose a million lives and a few trillion dollars to uphold their mindset? Will US Christians, like Hitler, destroy the USA if they don't get their way?

And I would like to thank all the countries that have kindly announced their support for Venezuela, even though the ballot is a secret one and there's no need to announce things.
