Well the times they are a changing....... Always wondered by nobody has parked a fertilizer truck in front of the UN? They are conspicuous by their mere presense? Note JFK, RFK, JFK, Jr, and Reagan and Wallace and others all were either assassinated or nearly assassinated.......conspicious by their absense as compared to presense of others? UN is comprised of a lot of Bensons - servants who would ride while freedom walked. Never see any of these UN figures knocked off and yet.....maybe it is because their backers are buying the bullets.....and their messengers deliver same? Saba
http://www.eco.freedom.org/el/20010801/caruba.shtml Wednesday, August 08, 2001 Anti-U.N. Petitions Flood Capitol More than 70,000 petitions urging the rejection of "all global governance schemes of the United Nations" were presented to Speaker of the House, Dennis Hastert, today (July 19, 2001) by the American Policy Center. The petitions continue the Center's effort, begun in September 2000, when the American Policy Center (APC) presented Congressman Ron Paul (R-TX) with more than one ton of petitions in support of his "American Sovereignty Restoration Act" (H.R. 1146). The Center, headquartered in Herndon, Virginia, is an activist think tank. A review of the voting records of the 435 members of the House of Representatives conducted by the Center revealed that 44% have failed to support legislation to protect America's national sovereignty. The subsequent petitions presented to Rep. Paul demonstrated the growing fear of Americans that the nation's sovereignty is in peril. The new, additional petitions, said Tom DeWeese, the Center's president, call on the United States to withdraw the United States from the United Nations. "There is a growing consensus in our country that the United Nations is less concerned with world peace and more concerned with penetrating the sovereignty of the U.S. and other nations," said DeWeese in a letter to the Speaker. "In light of our expulsion from the U.N. Human Rights Commission and International Narcotics Control Board, clearly the UN sees the U.S. as the biggest obstacle to its goals." DeWeese noted that, at the same time of the APC September news conference, broadcast by C-Span, the U.N. was convening its Millennium Assembly. The U.N. Millennium Declaration, a product of the assembly, was put forth as a working blueprint for future United Nations' objectives. Among the Declaration's provisions were those that would: Expand U.N. influence and power over the land of the United States, most notably through the use of environmental laws, World Heritage Site designations and biosphere reserves. Register and track all small arms (rifles, handguns, etc.) produced worldwide, in an effort to implement a "global gun control" scheme, which would undoubtedly lead to gun confiscation from sovereign citizens. Tax individual citizens of the U.S., directly, in the form of a "Tobin" tax, thus creating a global IRS. Ratify the International Criminal Court (ICC) Treaty, creating a world court in which U.S. citizens and soldiers abroad could be tried unjustly in the name of political retribution. The ICC would even supersede the jurisdiction of the United States Supreme Court. In his letter to the Speaker of the House, DeWeese said "it is your unique obligation to make certain that the Constitution of the United States is upheld, not only by yourself, but by your colleagues as well. "The objectives of the United Nations fly directly in the face of the principles on which our nation was founded, most notably, sovereignty and the inherent right to govern ourselves. We ask that you demonstrate courage and leadership in your responsibilities as Speaker and join us in working to protect our liberty and sovereignty."
