George Soros |
The International Baccalaureate has a basic goal of producing global citizens. When you start looking inside the IBO, you quickly realize they advocate for a number of causes that don't have the United States' best interest. These include United Nations human rights issues that undermine the Constitution and the sovereignty of the United States, as well as Earth Charter that promotes the redistribution of the world, taking away the right to bear arms. These are things the Ozark School Board aren't going to tell residents as they work to sell Ozark parents on the IP.
I decided to look to see who exactly is behind the International Baccalaureate, and with no surprise I found ties to George Soros. Soros is tied to the International Baccalaureate through his Open Society Institute. Established in 1993, the Open Society Institute (OSI) is the most prominent of the numerous foundations belonging to the international billionaire financier George Soros, its founder and Chairman.
Open Society supports a vast array of radical left wing organizations, which are typically anti-American. Included on that list is Earth Charter.
OSI endorsed a 2000 document called the Earth Charter, which blames capitalism for many of the world's environmental, social, and economic problems. According to the Charter, “the dominant patterns of production and consumption are causing environmental devastation, the depletion of resources, and a massive extinction of species.” “The benefits of development,” adds the Charter, “are not shared equitably and the gap between rich and poor is widening."
While this isn't a direct connection the International Baccalaureate has also issued a statement of strong support for the Earth Charter. They issued the following statement signaling their support:
We, the undersigned, endorse the Earth Charter. We embrace the spirit and aims of the document. We pledge to join the global partnership for a just, sustainable, and peaceful world and to work for the realization of the values and principles of the Earth Charter. We pledge to join the Global Partnership in Support of the Earth Charter Initiative for a sustainable way of life AND urge all governments to endorse the Earth Charter.
Now why would Dr. Gordon Pace, Dr. Sam Taylor, and Chuck Fugate (President of the Ozark School Board) push an organization that advocates a charter that George Soros celebrates because it blames capitalism for all the world's problems? That's a question I would like to know too.
