This fits hand-in-glove with Obama's and his UN ambassador Susan Rice's stated position that the US should become a signatory to the ICC and that it
should have jurisdiction in the US.
Obama to endorse International Criminal Court's jurisdiction
Are you ready to submit to Sharia law? Sudanese and Congolese norms?
The U.S., and any other nation that desires to be called one, gives up control of its own affairs by submitting sovereignty to outsiders.
One of the highest ranking lawyers in the UK has called for the creation of an International Court, similar to the Int'l Ct. of Justice in the Hague,
to enforce environmental laws, including fines and other penalties against nations, businesses and even individuals!
The link to the story:
www.telegraph.co.uk...
Stephen Hockman, QC, a former chairman of the Bar Council, is calling for an international court for the environment to punish states that fail to
protect wildlife and prevent climate change.
Such a Court represents just one more step of relinquishing sovereign and personal rights to an international body that "would influence public
opinion which in turn would force Governments to take the environment seriously."
What makes this even more alarming than it would otherwise be is the fact that mounting evidence supports the opinions of many that GW is a sham based
on selective examples and ignorant of empiric evidence that the Earth may in fact be cooling, and that man has little or no influence over either!
Are we ready for Greenpeace, PETA, and Friends of the Earth to have an international forum with which to harass business and individuals with legal
sanction? Have you checked your emissions lately?
When the ICC, the Climate Court, or any other UN or "international" law enforcement comes for you or your Governor there will be no recourse in the
U.S. Good luck.
Except that "those in power" will be people who may not agree with a secular, capitalist system. Or even democratic or republican forms of
government.
At that point, the Constitution will be a museum piece.
Why not just abandon "nationality" altogether and agree that the U.N. will govern us? Look how well they've done with "Oil for Food,"
"peacekeeper" rapists and butchers, WHO and other failures.
The NWO will be the end of our civilization and many dems/libs/progressives cannot wait for it any more than they couldn't wait for the "change"
and "hope" that will never be borne out.
Deny Ignorance!
