For nearly eight decades, the United Nations promised to unite nations in pursuit of peace, justice, and shared prosperity. Yet today, it stands as little more than a tool of American imperial power-transforming global consensus into American dominance through systematic abuse of veto power, financial control, and institutional capture.
THE WORLD MINUS ONE exposes how the United States has betrayed the UN's founding mission. From shielding allies from war crimes prosecutions to launching unauthorized invasions, America consistently places itself above the international law it claims to defend.
The evidence is overwhelming:
The US deploys its Security Council veto more than any other nation, repeatedly protecting allies from accountability while condemning others for identical actions.
American financial contributions function as institutional extortion, turning UN funding into leverage that ensures subordination to US interests.
Systematic violations from the illegal invasion of Iraq to economic warfare through unilateral sanctions demonstrate that America treats international law as optional.
The Security Council's fossilized 1945 composition preserves Western dominance while excluding the Global South majority that represents most of humanity.
But this book offers more than critique-it presents a radical solution backed by legal precedent. Through meticulous analysis of UN Charter Article 6 and the Uniting for Peace resolution, author Joseph Hover demonstrates that expelling the United States is not only legally possible but morally necessary for the UN to fulfill its founding mission.
As BRICS nations forge alternative institutions and the Global South demands genuine representation, the world stands at a crossroads. The rise of multipolarity offers an unprecedented opportunity to break free from decades of American hegemony and create a truly united nations-one where no single country can hold 193 others hostage to its imperial ambitions.
THE WORLD MINUS ONE is not anti-American-it's pro-justice, pro-peace, and pro-democracy. It's a call for collective self-preservation by the international community and a blueprint for the most consequential reform in UN history.
