"The UN has proved in these forty years only one thing: that it is as impotent as its predecessor, the League of Nations.
"The members of the UN are the people who are going to..."

Osho continues:
"That should be the first step if you don't want the third world war. Why wait for the last moment? Why not start it now? And the basic step will be that no war preparations are made. When everybody is prepared to fightin fact they will be forced to fight, just because each country has invested so much energy and power, and it has piled up nuclear weapons sky high: what are the nations going to do with those weapons? And they have poured such immense amounts of money into them. At what point will the UN stop them? And the Soviet Union can just veto it, America can veto it.

"But this is how politicians have been cheating humanity all along, throughout the whole history of man. They say one thing and they do just the opposite. It is very easy to publish a postal stamp that says, 'We the peoples of the United Nations are determined to save humanity from the scourge of war.' Who are these 'we'? Have you asked the people of the world?

"Nobody wants war around the world except these idiotic politicians, because without war they have no job. War keeps politicians powerful. People have to depend on politicians because the war is coming.

"Adolf Hitler wrote in his autobiography, My Strugglehe has a few very important points to make. The first thing he says is that never in history has a great leader been born unless there is war.

"That's true. If there had been no second world war you would have never heard of Adolf Hitler, Benito Mussolini, Winston Churchill, Roosevelt – they all became stars high in the sky. Of course, millions of people died to make them great leaders of men.

"The same has been the case all along, throughout history. The politician wants to be on the top, as high as possible. If there is peace, no fight, no war, no preparation for war, he is just ordinary – perhaps a little bit less intelligent than the average person. His intelligence is not better than the average person's; it can be worse.

"Before the second world war, the same promise was given by the League of Nations: 'We are going to save the world from war.' But those were the same people who fought the second world war."
