The job requires experience "in disarmament affairs, political analysis or in national military or paramilitary service"
The United Nations is now accepting job applications in New York City, New York for Disarmament, Demobilization, and Reintegration officers to "contribute to security and stability in post-conflict environments."
UN DDR forces operate under the intergovernmental organization's Department of Peace Operations to "assist" the Member States, including the United States, in a boots on the ground capacity.

The job listing describes the UN's core values as "Integrity, Professionalism, [and] Respect for Diversity."
Applicants eager to conduct DDR "field missions" are required to have "seven years of relevant experience in disarmament affairs, political analysis or in national military or paramilitary service" and an "advanced university degree (Master's degree or equivalent degree) in disarmament affairs, military studies, political affairs, economics, international relations, or a related field."
The UN describes the Disarmament, Demobilization, and Reintegration protocol as "a complex process, with political, military, security, humanitarian and socio-economic dimensions."
Key components of DDR as defined by the UN
*https://www.unddr.org/what-is-ddr/introduction_1.aspx*
include disarming the civilian population and "the development of responsible arms management programmes" and the implementation of mass detainment camps:
DISARMAMENT is the collection, documentation, control and disposal of small arms, ammunition, explosives and light and heavy weapons of combatants and often also of the civilian population. Disarmament also includes the development of responsible arms management programmes.
DEMOBILIZATION is the formal and controlled discharge of active combatants from armed forces or other armed groups. The first stage of demobilization may extend from the processing of individual combatants in temporary centres to the massing of troops in camps designated for this purpose (cantonment sites, encampments, assembly areas or barracks). The second stage of demobilization encompasses the support package provided to the demobilized, which is called reinsertion.
REINSERTION* is the assistance offered to ex-combatants during demobilization but prior to the longer-term process of reintegration. Reinsertion is a form of transitional assistance to help cover the basic needs of ex-combatants and their families and can include transitional safety allowances, food, clothes, shelter, medical services, short-term education, training, employment and tools. While reintegration is a long-term, continuous social and economic process of development, reinsertion is short-term material and/or financial assistance to meet immediate needs, and can last up to one year.
REINTEGRATION is the process by which ex-combatants acquire civilian status and gain sustainable employment and income. Reintegration is essentially a social and economic process with an open time-frame, primarily taking place in communities at the local level. It is part of the general development of a country and a national responsibility, and often necessitates long-term external assistance.
The UN website notes that "it is important to break outside of the traditional view of DDR participants as only being adult males carrying weapons, and remember that DDR participants and beneficiaries may fit all types of profiles including female ex-combatants and women associated with armed forces and groups, children, youth, the elderly and persons living with disabilities."
UN hopefuls hoping to work in New York and "contribute to security and stability in post-conflict environments" can submit their applications to become DDR officers December 2019 through February 2020.
This is true.
SECOND SENTENCE OF ARTICLE
“UN DDR forces operate under the intergovernmental organization’s Department of Peace Operations to “assist” the Member States, including the UNITED STATES, in a boots on the ground capacity.”
A little blue on green payback ?
The useless n can’t even get emergency food, water and medicine distribution off a pallet before the warlord of the week steals it !!!
I’m getting officially amused :)
We can’t worry about things that are not going to happen.
Trump is president of NY too.
Any foreign troops embarrassing US citizens and he would have them buried.
This doesn’t concern me at all.
It’s nonsense and I can’t believe so many are taking it seriously.
Well, maybe Rhode Island ...

That doesn’t read IN those member states but WITH those member states - I.e. whenever those member states have troops deployed.
“UN hopefuls hoping to work in New York”
Doesn’t sound like overseas operations to me.
From the article my understanding is they’re
looking for officers hence the education
requirements. They’re probably looking for
people that would implement the policies
stated at a staff level, not necessarily
“boots on the ground”.
Forget bags, get a Bobcat with a Bucket and Forks. Collect free Pallets and 3’ Rolls of Shrink Wrap...
In the 1200 Baud days when the .net wasn’t. I was paying LD Phone charges to log onto 1800guntalk.
All this stuff was there and details about when fezilla Attacked The Weaver Family.
Incremental, just like eating an Elephant. One bite at a time.
They’re hoping We will go away, die, forget about it, etc.
Yeah, but none of it aimed at the US.
Not even the UN is that stupid.
And DDR nor the UN even mentions the US in any charter document, recruiting document or ad.
Not even the body of the sensational article designed to inflame the ignorant mentions the US.
I say again, the headline of the article was a lie.
And the source publication is trash, not worthy of FR.
For later.
The UN is broke folks. They can barely keep the lights on since Trump cut the funding. Second the UN does not hire troops the member States provide them. This sounds like liason type positions.
The UN only has about 90,000 troops and they are already deployed in places like Africa. They will never be here if for no other reason than they would be massacred by irate Americans.
This is a bunch of ridiculous scare talk.
They are to be used to implement the new unconstitutional laws in Virginia...
A reminder to bless the name of General Joseph Pershing who in WWI refused to have US troops commanded by foreigners.
