United Nations: Law of the Rights of ‘Mother Earth’

Image via Wikipediahttp://the-classic-liberal.com/united-nations-law-of-the-rights-of-mother-earth
And you probably thought the world couldn't get any crazier ...
Bolivia has drafted a United Nations treaty giving "Mother Earth" human rights, and also establishes a Ministry of Mother Earth.
That's right. Our favorite big rock hurling through space even gets it's very own ombudsman!
UN document would give 'Mother Earth' same rights as humans

UNITED NATIONS — Bolivia will this month table a draft United Nations treaty giving "Mother Earth" the same rights as humans — having just passed a domestic law that does the same for bugs, trees and all other natural things in the South American country.
The bid aims to have the UN recognize the Earth as a living entity that humans have sought to "dominate and exploit" — to the point that the "well-being and existence of many beings" is now threatened.
That document speaks of the country's natural resources as "blessings," and grants the Earth a series of specific rights that include rights to life, water and clean air; the right to repair livelihoods affected by human activities; and the right to be free from pollution.
It also establishes a Ministry of Mother Earth, and provides the planet with an ombudsman whose job is to hear nature's complaints as voiced by activist and other groups, including the state.

Don't laugh. Remember that the United Nations already has an Office for Outer Space Affairs, complete with a paid physicist in the post of Ambassador to Aliens. I mean, once you're talking to aliens, "rights" for Mother Earth is hardly a stretch.

Syria death toll growing, human rights groups warn | World news | The Guardian

Human rights organisations have warned of a growing death toll in Syria as security forces move to quell protests and sit-ins in cities across the country.
As funerals for some of the 27 people shot dead in Deraa on Friday were being held, there were reports of violent clashes between mourners and security services.
An eyewitness in Deraa told the Guardian that security forces had been "shooting randomly" as mass funerals went on. It is not yet clear whether anyone was killed in those clashes. Further funerals are due to take place in Harasta and Douma.
The government issued a warning amid Friday's protests, the largest and most deadly yet.
A statement from the interior ministry, posted by the official Sana media agency, said: "There is no more room for leniency or tolerance in preserving security of the country and protecting the general order."
It added that this would be done "according to the law which specified the conditions for using weapons".
Sit-ins are taking place in Deraa, with the coastal city of Banias cordoned off. The National Organisation for Human Rights said 37 people had died across the country on Friday, including 27 in Deraa, three in Homs and Harasta and one in Douma, bringing the total death toll since 18 March to more than 200.
"We are very worried, especially for Banias where mobile coverage is currently down," Ammar Qurabi, the head of the organisation, speaking from Cairo, said.
Other activists said they were concerned about Latakia, where several districts have been cut off and the army deployed, although the town centre remains quiet.

Iran restricts social sciences seen as 'Western' - Yahoo! News

Image via Wikipedia If you really think about what Iran is doing here. The Christian Church should have also done this exact same thing years ago
.
Except of course women's studies and human rights. Women deserve to have rights here in America.

Persia Islam? There is no rights for women.  Yet, being they didn't it should be something the entire church should be looking into today. Each one of these subjects has changed so much in the past decades in America, yet Islamic subjection will most likely get away with this even right here in the states.

Hmmm? Go figure.

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20101024/ap_on_re_mi_ea/ml_iran_university_restrictions
TEHRAN, Iran – Iran has imposed new restrictions on 12 university social sciences deemed to be based on Western schools of thought and therefore incompatible with Islamic teachings, state radio reported Sunday.
The list includes law, philosophy, management, psychology, political science and the two subjects that appear to cause the most concern among Iran's conservative leadership — women's studies and human rights.
"The content of the current courses in the 12 subjects is not in harmony with religious fundamentals and they are based on Western schools of thought," senior education official Abolfazl Hassani told state radio.
Hassani said the restrictions prevent universities from opening new departments in these subjects. The government will also revise the content of current programs by up to 70 percent over the next few years, he said.

Mexican Government Proves to be Supreme Hypocrite

Image by xomiele via Flickr

http://www.thenewamerican.com/index.php/world-mainmenu-26/north-america-mainmenu-36/4666-mexican-government-proves-to-be-supreme-hypocrite
Raul Diaz of the Mexican Superintendence of Tax Administration confirmed this week that the Mexican government intends to build a wall along the Mexican/Guatemalan border. Diaz claims that the official purpose of the wall is to prevent the passage of contraband, but has also admitted “It could also prevent the free passage of illegal immigrants.”
Defending the decision to construct the wall, Mexico’s National Commission on Human Rights states that 500,000 people from Central America cross into Mexico illegally every year.
The proposal to construct the wall appears to go against the principles held by Mexican President Felipe Calderon, who, when speaking out against the state of Arizona for its tough immigration measure, remarked, “Criminalizing immigration, which is a social economic phenomena, this way opens the door to intolerance, hate, and discrimination. My government cannot and will not remain indifferent when these kinds of policies go against human rights.”
Apparently, Calderon's views on border control are relative.
Dave Gibson of The Examiner notes the hypocrisy in the Mexican government’s sudden change of heart as the Mexican authorities have long criticized the United States for the construction of a fence along a United States/Mexican border. Likewise, Mexico asserts that the passage of 500,000 people from Central America into Mexico is an appropriate reason for a fence, but that many people annually cross into the state of Arizona alone. Yet, that has not stopped Mexico from criticizing Arizona for the introduction of its immigration law, Senate Bill 1070.
Of course, this is not the first time the American people have encountered hypocrisy from the Mexican government regarding illegal immigration. In an article entitled “How Mexico Treats Its Illegal Aliens,” conservative writer Michelle Malkin outlined Mexico’s treatment of illegal aliens, which could be dubbed “intolerant, hateful, and discriminatory,” in the words of Calderon. Mexico demands a number of things from its illegals, particularly that they contribute to the “economic and social interests” of the country, while not upsetting “the equilibrium of the national demographics.” But can’t that be construed as a form of racial and ethnic profiling — the same over which the Mexican government articulated concerns when Arizona passed its immigration law?

GOPUSA » Commentary » Malkin: Arizona vs. the U.N. Human Rights Police

Image by wallyg via FlickrMy God what is going on in the White House that makes them think they defy the United States and the Constitution?
Are they actually trying to create a War? This has got the be the stupidest thing I have ever seen from any United States Government. This is going to a foreign country to deal with a state in the US.
Where is that in the Constitution? This is what causes Kings and Queens to be overthrown.







http://www.gopusa.com/commentary/2010/09/arizona-vs-the-un-human-rights-police.php

An indignant President Obama complained last week, "I can't spend all of my time with my birth certificate plastered on my forehead." Fine. How about plastering a copy of his presidential oath of office there instead? The kowtowing commander-in-chief is in dire need of a daily reminder that his job is to "preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States" -- not international law or global diktats.
Case in point: Last week, Obama's State Department handed in America's first-ever report to the United Nations Commissioner for Human Rights in conjunction with something called the "Universal Periodic Review." In short, the 29-page document is a self-aggrandizing report card touting the administration's far-left domestic and foreign policy initiatives for the world's approval. The report boasts of racial- and gender-bean-counting in the executive branch; Justice Department outreach to Muslim grievance groups opposed to post-9/11 security measures; teachers' union payoffs in the federal stimulus law; continuing commitment to closing the Gitmo detention facility for enemy combatants; and the illusory lifesaving effects of Obamacare on minorities through "expanding community health centers" (which have yet to be built, but not that it matters in our Nobel Peace Prize-winning president's age of post-achievement).
The report also includes a section on "values and immigration," which essentially singles out Arizona's immigration enforcement law as a human rights deficiency "that is being addressed in a court action."
In response, Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer rightly blasted Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and the Obama administration for succumbing to "internationalism run amok." Brewer pointed out in a letter to Clinton, "Human rights as guaranteed by the United States and Arizona Constitutions are expressly protected in S.B. 1070 and defended vigorously by my Administration. In fact, the Department of Justice has correctly not included these so-called 'human rights' issues in the current litigation against the State of Arizona." Somehow, that inconvenient detail escaped the Foggy Bottom bureaucrats' notice.

Russia gives powers to FSB to prosecute 'thought crime'

clipped from www.telegraph.co.uk The Russian security service has been given extended powers to act against people for so-called "thought crime" under a new law which opponents say marks a return to Soviet-era policing. The bill, criticised by rights groups, would allow the Federal Security Service (FSB) to issue official warnings to individuals whose actions are deemed to be creating the conditions for crime. Rights groups say the bill would essentially put the special service above the law and harks back to Soviet times when the much-feared FSB predecessor KGB used warnings to persecute dissidents. The bill had already sailed through the lower and upper houses of parliament and was today signed into law by the Russian President, Dmitry Medvedev. In response to protests from human rights activists, lawmakers earlier removed an amendment allowing the FSB to summon people to their offices to hand out the warnings and also publish their warnings in the media.

European Court to Review Conditions of U.S. Imprisonment of Terrorists

  Uganda, which killed at least 76 people as they watched the World Cup final, the European Court of Human Rights (the "Court") delayed the United Kingdom's extradition to the United States of four terrorist suspects who are wanted for plotting to set up a jihad training camp in Bly, Oregon, USA and conspiring to commit international terrorist atrocities.
  The Court delayed the extradition so that the UK government and legal counsel for the suspected terrorists can provide evidence that will assist the Court in determining whether the possible post-conviction imprisonment of the suspected terrorists with prolonged periods of isolation in a U.S. federal "supermax" prison, and the application of additional security measures during their imprisonment, might result in a violation of the prohibition against torture or inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment under Article 3 of the European Convention on Human Rights (the "Convention"). The Court's decision raises serious questions regarding the lack of any clear guidelines or standards relating to the nature and quality of evidence introduced in extradition appeals heard by the Court and the disproportionate influence that non-governmental human rights organizations and United Nations human rights treaty body committees have at the Court.
  Beginning in 2005, the UK government agreed to a series of extraditions of the four accused terrorists to be carried out in accordance with the results of extensive negotiations that were memorialized in Diplomatic Notes issued by the U.S. Embassy to the UK government. The Diplomatic Notes contain assurances that the U.S. government will not seek the death penalty against certain of the detainees; that the detainees will be prosecuted in a Federal court with all the rights and protections that would otherwise be provided to a defendant facing similar charges; and that the detainees will not be prosecuted before a military commission. The UK trial court and UK appellate High Court ruled that the extraditions were lawful and would not violate Article 3 and Article 6 of the Convention.

  For two reasons, the Court's decision in regards to the admissibility of the complaints is troublesome.
  First, in making its decision as to the admissibility of the complaints pertaining to the possible post-conviction incarceration of the suspects, the Court decision did not cite any real evidence supporting the applicants' allegations that prolonged periods of isolation and the imposition of SAMs would negatively impact the mental health of the detainees so severely as to give rise to an Article 3 violation. In reaching its decision to admit the complaints and halt the extradition, the Court relied upon:

  2. A copy of the Istanbul statement on the use and effects of solitary confinement, which was adopted at the International Psychological Trauma Symposium in December 2007, for which the Human Rights Foundation of Turkey (the "Foundation") served as an organizer. The Istanbul statement concludes that "the central harmful feature of solitary confinement is that it reduces meaningful social contact to a level of social and psychological stimulus that many will experience as insufficient to sustain health and well being." It is important to note that Amnesty International, which, at the time of the 2007 conference, was supporting the application of the four terrorist suspects to the Court, has provided support to the Foundation.

  • The Court's lack of clear and objective guidelines regarding the nature and expected quality of evidence introduced to support an applicant's Article 3 complaint;
  • The Court's long-standing and close partnership with human rights NGOs and UN treaty body committees with a clear agenda against harsh, though lawful, pre- and post-conviction criminal justice practices; and
  • The Court's replacement of the considered judgment of the UK's trial and appellate court judges with the judgment of a small panel of Court human rights experts/judges, most from other European nations, who, while based in Strasbourg, France next to the headquarters of the Council of Europe, are regularly exposed to a culture of anti-American sentiment relating to the methods used by U.S. authorities to investigate, apprehend, convict, and punish some of the world's most dangerous terrorist suspects.

  MOSCOW – The upper house of Russia's parliament on Monday passed a bill granting expanded powers to the country's main security agency, a move that critics say echoes the era of the Soviet KGB.
  The bill, which now goes to President Dmitry Medvedev to be signed into law, would allow the Federal Security Service to issue warnings to people suspected of preparing to commit crimes against Russia's security.
  Human rights and democracy activists say this power could be used to intimidate government opponents and stifle protests.
  "This law is targeted against the opposition ... It's a draconian law which is unprecedented in the world and is reminiscent of our repressive past," Boris Nemtsov, a leader of the opposition Solidarity movement, was quoted as saying by the news agency Interfax.
  The security service is the main successor agency to the KGB.

  The bill was approved by the upper house by a vote of 121-1. The sole vote against was cast by the house's speaker, Sergei Mironov, who said he had was apprehensive about the measure.
  Opposition groups frequently are denied permission to hold rallies or are allowed to hold them only in out-of-the-way neighborhoods. Riot police often break up unsanctioned rally attempts swiftly and brutally.
  The bill has raised doubts about President Dmitry Medvedev's commitment to promoting full-fledged democracy and freedom of expression. Medvedev often has spoken of instituting judicial and police reforms, and has taken a less hard line on many issues than his predecessor Vladimir Putin, a former KGB agent and later head of the FSB.

  The American Form of Government.

  It's a Republic and not a Democracy like the people have been taught for the last 40 years. Multiculturalism and Socialism is bringing this Great Country to it's knees.
  
  What so many don't seem to realize about our Country and our Constitutional Rights. The difference between Governments running everything or the People running it is the the difference of freedom.
  Freedom is not Government run. Know your right sand why they are there. Stand up for your Freedom and the Constitution. This is what makes our Country America great. Without it? We are just like everyone else.

  Jailed for Jesus in America...Michigan police arrest Christians for talking to Muslims
  Four Christians were arrested and jailed for talking to Muslims about Jesus, by order of police chief Ronald Haddad of Dearborn Michigan, who defended the arrests one week after the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals ordered those same police to let Christian evangelist George Saieg preach openly at a Muslim festival there.
  "We didn't distribute literature, or preach anything," said one of the four jailed evangelists.  "We spoke only to those people who first approached us, we talked only about Jesus' love...and within minutes we were handcuffed and jailed."  But Haddad was unrepentant.  "We did make four arrests for disorderly conduct," Haddad told Worldnet Daily. "They did cause a stir" [with their free speech about Jesus].  Is talking quietly about Jesus now disorderly, just because some Muslims get angry?
  "Allah Akbar!" shouted two Muslims as the Christians were taken away in handcuffs, by police who also seized the Christians' video camera evidence and refused to return video footage of the arrests.
  
  Live video is now on YouTube of another group of three evangelists being detained by the same police the very next day, because they distributed the Gospel of John on a public sidewalk outside the Muslim festival.  This new video got 15,000 hits in 3 days, after the police told those being held that city policy states Christian literature is not allowed within 5 city blocks of the Muslim festival, creating a "banned-Bible zone" in violation of the First Amendment.  Let's demand an FBI investigation by petitioning Congress.

  "The police are enforcing Sharia law in America," said one of the four arrested Christians, explaining that Muslim Sharia law is not just about putting Burkas on women, but also prohibits anyone from talking to Muslims about Jesus, and prevents listeners from escaping Islam by converting to any other religion.

  Giving Peace Advice to Terrorist Can Be Illegal

  by Bob Egelko
  WASHINGTON - The government can prosecute private citizens for giving advice to a foreign organization - on how to negotiate peace or take its case to the United Nations, for example - if the group is on the U.S. terrorist list, the Supreme Court ruled Monday.
  In the most important foreign policy and civil liberties case of their 2009-10 term, the justices ruled 6-3 that a law prohibiting "material support" of foreign terrorist organizations can be used against people who claim to be providing only peaceful, humanitarian assistance.

  "It also importantly helps lend legitimacy to foreign terrorist groups - legitimacy that makes it easier for those groups to persist, to recruit members, and to raise funds - all of which facilitate more terrorist attacks," Roberts said.
  Dissenting Justice Stephen Breyer protested that the majority's interpretation "would deny First Amendment protection to the peaceful teaching of international human rights law," on the grounds that it might enable terrorists to conduct sham negotiations.

UN urges end to CIA drone attacks

This is why a One World Government is not only a very bad idea, but extremely worse for countries to own their own land. Free from other countries dictatorships.

Is it OK that the drone hurt innocent people? NO, War is not pretty no matter how anyone looks at it.
What they really want here is our soldiers to die.

You know they should have thought about all this before they attacked America and continue to do so.
Hmmm? There's a thought for you.

clipped from english.aljazeera.net A United Nations human rights official has called for the US to end the CIA's control over a programme of drone attacks that has killed hundreds of people in northwest Pakistan. Philip Alston, the special rapporteur on extrajudicial executions, issued a report on Wednesday which concluded that the US spy agency does not provide enough transparency or accountability for the programme. Alston praised a recent military investigation that blamed human error for the death of 23 civilians in a drone attack in Afghanistan's Uruzgan province in February. 'Playstation mentality' Alston also said that CIA agents could be prosecuted for carrying out drone attacks, because - unlike military personnel - they do not have immunity for their actions. "CIA personnel could be prosecuted for murder under the domestic law of any country in which they conduct targeted killings, and could also be prosecuted for violations of applicable US law," Alston wrote.
