United Nations & UN agencies

For readers of Dore Gold's bestseller Hatred's Kingdom; for readers of lucid

books on international relations--particularly America's place in world affairs--like Of Paradise and Power; for those who follow American politics, since the book deals with a core issue separating Republicans and Democrats.

A United Nations insider exposes the ugly truth about the UN-including how UN organizations have been funding terrorist groups!

In the New York Times bestseller Tower of Babble, former United Nations ambassador Dore Gold blows the lid off the UN's shocking failures to keep international peace, its corruption, its rampant anti-Americanism, and its emboldening of terrorist organizations. Citing previously unpublished documents, a brand-new chapter exclusive to this paperback edition provides the untold story of the infamous oil-for-food scandal-including the real scandal, that the UN let oil-for-food money go to fund terrorist organizations.

Reviews for Tower of Babble: How the United Nations Has Fueled Global Chaos

Bound to be one of the most controversial critiques in the public debate on the UN. --Henry Kissinger, former Secretary of State An exceptionally valuable and timely book . . . Shocking . . . Gold brings us face to face with the reality that, even with the passing of the Soviet Union, the UN's moral failings have not much diminished. -- Commentary Most conservatives, of course, realize by now that abolishing, or withdrawing from, the United Nations is never going to happen. Instead, they're seeking to bring it to heel. The strategy is outlined by former Israeli ambassador to the UN Dore Gold in his book Tower of Babble. -- Los Angeles Times Dore Gold's excellent book Tower of Babble documents the UN's shortcomings. -- New York Sun
