On Thursday’s episode of The Hill’s “Rising,” journalist and political commentator Kim Iversen speaking with hosts Ryan Grim and Robby Soave asked whether the “New World Order” was just a “right-wing conspiracy” — or a mainstream concept now “loosely falling out of the mouths of global leaders everywhere.”
On the side of the “right-wing conspiracy” theory, Iversen cited in full the Anti-Defamation League’s (ADL) definition of the term “New World Order:”
“A term used to refer to a right-wing conspiracy theory that became popular among anti-government extremists from the 1990s onwards. ‘New World Order’ conspiracists believe that a tyrannical, socialist ‘one-world’ conspiracy has already taken over most of the planet and schemes to eliminate the last bastion of freedom, the United States, with the help of collaborators within the government.
On the other hand, Iversen said, the phrase “New World Order” is now being used casually by world leaders everywhere — from lead speakers this week at the World Government Summit 2022 to President Biden himself who on March 21 said:
Is this just a question of “conspiracy theorists” taking the president’s “innocent use of the phrase” out of context, Iversen asked — referring to the “eye-rolling” response by mainstream media, eager, she said, to fact check “for context?”
Iversen did not think so:
“So now we have Joe Biden, Emirati leaders [at the World Government Summit] and Klaus Schwab all talking about the ‘New World Order’ forming. What next?
“Well, it turns out the Chinese and the Russians have been talking about it as well. In fact, the two nations just got together yesterday and declared they’re building a new democratic world order together.”
Iversen said, “it’s time to pay attention to the conspiracy theorists, especially as Russia and China force the world away from the petrodollar and into the new petro-ruble or petroyuan.”
