See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Freedom / Global Unity Constitutional Standards.

Thomas Jefferson once noted that: "Given the government and the media, I would rather have the media than the government." The media acts as a monitor of the government, which would otherwise be lawless without supervision. The voice of the people is the voice of God, and universal values are the values of God. And trying to control the voice of the people is contrary to the universal values of freedom and democracy and inimical to the ideals of God. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
