I can't see the NWO being anything like a democracy.

The only way a unified world government could happen is if all dissenting opinion was silenced.

If there was a one world government, it might be good because it might put an end to world wars. But the NWO leader will be a tryant, someone who is like an anti-christ and the world will be like 1984...Big brother will be watching all are moves
I've thought about that. All theories regarding fake or real alien invasion aside, Henry Kissenger did once talk about this very subject.

Or if there was a global threat that would threaten our exsistence as a species. But that is very unlikely.
Today Americans would be outraged if UN troops entered Los Angeles to restore order. Tomorrow they will be grateful. This is especially true if they were told there was an outside threat from beyond, whether real or promulgated, that threatened our very existence. It is then that all peoples of the world will plead with world leaders to deliver them from this evil. The one thing every man fears is the unknown. When presented with this scenario, individual rights will be willingly relinquished for the guarantee of their well-being granted to them by their world government."

I don't think that this will be the case though.

Well, it all depends on how the world would be governed. If the system would be democratic and transparent and the objectives humane, I guess it wouldn't be that bad.

Does the system in use now *look* like it will turn benevolent once world-control is acheived? The current system exists soley upon the premise that the "rulers" make profit upon pitting people against each other...How does this promote benevolent rulership in the future? Besides, such "rulership", by definition & practice, cannot possibly become any form of Democracy...Federalism is *very* closely related to Facism.
