President Obama addressed diplomats at a reception Friday, the day after a jihadist killed 84 people in France, and said the United Nations' plan for sustainable development and global unity is all that's needed to defeat the terrorists.

Obama called for "a new sustainable development set of goals to end extreme poverty and promote health and education and equality for all people, including women."

That was a direct reference to the U.N.'s new "2030 Agenda," in which the new sustainable development goals or SDGs are being promoted as the answer to all of mankind’s problems -- including the eradication of poverty and saving the planet from climate change.

The 2030 Agenda, which is the U.N.'s updated version of Agenda 21, also includes for the first time the rights of migrants to move across open borders for economic opportunity.

"Obama simply reflects his globalist handlers when he suggests that the solution to the world’s problems will be found in everyone's submission to a single globalist power," writes Patrick Wood for Technocracy News and Trends.

Obama told the ambassadors gathered at the reception that the world needs to "build strong institutions to protect people from those impulses" of national or cultural pride. This seemed to be a reference to supporters of Donald Trump in the U.S. and other nationalist-oriented parties gaining popularity in Europe. These parties are now calling for their countries to follow Britain's recent example and exit the European Union.

That's a path that will not succeed in America or anywhere else, Obama said.

"In other words, all Americans should stop being so selfish and self-centered and surrender themselves to the global 'common good,'" Wood wrote.

Obama added that "hatred and violence of a few ultimately is no match for the love and decency and hard work of people of goodwill and compassion."

He said the world needed to work with "our Muslim partners" to "push back against hateful ideologies that twist and distort Islam – a religion that teaches peace and justice and compassion."

"We will defeat these ideologies by offering a better vision of development and economic progress," Obama added.

If the U.S. is engaged in a war against Islamic terror, Obama doesn't know it, Wood said, or at least isn't treating it as such.

"In a war, the object is to crush the enemy into total defeat," he said. "In Obama’s war, we are supposed to crush them with love, decency, goodwill and compassion."

Wood, author of "Technocracy Rising: The Trojan Horse of Global Transformation," said the globalist technocrats behind Obama may well be invisible to the general public, but they are there.

"For the sake of implementing technocracy, Obama is merely one of their many 'useful idiots' who spew propaganda about things they know little about," Wood said.

In his book, Wood explains the technocracy movement as a system run by mostly un-elected bureaucrats using scientific data. Supported by globalist elites, this movement will end in totalitarianism, Wood believes.

Michele Bachmann, former congresswoman from Minnesota, was also appalled at Obama's comments.

"Innocent police officers are being targeted and gunned down in America's streets and, still, the American president ignores the bloody, lawless reality of cop killing in favor of his fantasy political agenda," Bachmann told WND.

"He intends to fundamentally transform the world into global submission of humankind to a global political/economic elite," she added. "The reality of these fantasy schemes will prove to be as cruel as Lenin, Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, Idi Amin, etc. were in the last century."

Clare Lopez, vice president of research and analysis for the Center for Security Policy, a Washington think tank focusing on national security, said the president's comments ignore the facts of history when it comes to political Islamism, which is far more than just another religion. It will take more than a good jobs program to derail jihadism, as suggested last year by one of Obama's State Department spokeswomen, Marie Harf.

"Magnificent civilizations including the Byzantines and Persians had great employment figures and were among the most highly-developed culturally of their time," Lopez said. "But they both went down to Islam – not because they didn't offer enough 'development and economic progress,' but because they were brutally overcome by the Islamic forces.

"Jobs for jihadis won't help us either if we don't name the enemy – all who support jihad to impose shariah – and devise and execute a whole-of-government, whole-of-society strategy to defeat the Global Islamic Movement.
