This article is a must read for everyone; both those who supported Obama and those who opposed him. It is vital that we Americans understand fully what he plans and where he wants to take our nation in its relationship with the world. Outlined in this article are treaties that other Presidents and Congresses turned down or outright fought against that as President Obama wants to push thru and make the law of the land. Treaties that will put Americans and American institutions under the control of the United Nations and other world organizations. Organizations where the United States would have only one vote just the same as all other nations.These treaties can not be allowed to become the law of our land! They are dangerous and will undermine our national sovereignty. Please pay very close attention to everything you read in this article.
Some excerpts to get you started:
http://townhall.com/columnists/PhyllisSchlafly/2008/12/23/obamas_plan_to_rejoin_the_world_community
1) "The U.N. Law of the Sea Treaty (LOST), which Ronald Reagan rejected in 1982, is high on Obama's list. LOST has already created the International Seabed Authority (ISA) in Jamaica and given it total regulatory jurisdiction over all the world's oceans and all the riches on the ocean floor.
Corrupt foreign dictators dominate LOST's global bureaucracy, and the United States would have the same vote as Cuba. Likewise for LOST's International Tribunal in Hamburg, Germany, which has the power to decide all disputes.
Even worse, LOST gives the ISA the power to levy international taxes. The real purpose of the taxing power is to compel the United States to spend billions of private-enterprise dollars to mine the ocean floor and then let ISA bureaucrats transfer our wealth to socialist, anti-American nations"
2) "Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty, which was signed by Bill Clinton but rejected by the Senate in 1999. It would prohibit all nuclear explosive testing and thereby allow our nuclear arsenal to deteriorate until the American people are defenseless against rogue regimes such as Iran and North Korea"3) "U.N. Treaty on Women, known as CEDAW. It was signed by Jimmy Carter in 1980 and persistently promoted by Hillary Clinton, but the Senate has so far had the good judgment to refuse to ratify it. This treaty would require us "to modify the social and cultural patterns of conduct of men and women," to follow U.N. dictates about "family education," to revise our textbooks to conform to feminist ideology in order to ensure "the elimination of any stereotyped concept of the roles of men and women" and to set up a federal "network of child-care facilities."
4) "Another U.N. Treaty on the list is the U.N. Treaty on the Rights of the Child, which was signed in 1995 by Bill Clinton but wisely never ratified by our Senate. ...........
This treaty would give children rights against their parents and society to express their own views "freely in all matters," to receive information of all kinds through "media of the child's choice," to use their "own language," and to have the right to "rest and leisure." This treaty even orders our schools to teach respect for "the Charter of the United Nations."
Please don't take this article's word for what these treaties mean, look them up and really study them yourselves. They are dangerous to us as a nation and to us as individual Americans. Do you really want to give control over your life and things that will affect you and your family to people you have no control over? Ask yourselves this questions and then watch Congress closely and voice your opinion when these treaties come up for discussion. And especially watch for them not to come up for discussion but to be rammed thur under cover of another bill altogether. BB0 Comments | Post Comment | Email This
