The number one goal of the United Nations is to become the political entity that rules all nations or in other words, the one world government. To accomplish that goal, they have to continue to exert their authority and power over individual countries and they have been quite successful at doing this in recent years.
One of the key pieces of international law that needs to be in place before the UN can take over the world is to control all weapons, including handguns, rifles, shotguns, semi-automatic and automatic weapons and ammunition. Over the past few years, the UN has been pushing one treaty that will help to accomplish that goal. It is the UN Arms Trade Treaty.
The UN Arms Trade Treaty is a treaty that would regulate the international sale and transfer of all conventional weapons throughout the world. Conventional weapons are sea and land mines, rockets, missiles, cluster munitions, non-nuclear bombs, shells, small arms and light weapons. By small arms, they mean handguns, rifles and shotguns of all kinds, regardless of their use or design.
A number of Second Amendment supporters and gun rights advocates believe that this treaty could be used to further regulate guns in the US and infringe on the rights of Americans to bear arms. One hundred and thirty members of Congress jointly signed a letter to President Obama and Secretary of State John Kerry, insisting that they reject the UN Arms Trade Treaty, saying:
"As your review of the treaty continues, we strongly encourage your administration to recognize its textual, inherent and procedural flaws, to uphold our country's constitutional protections of civilian firearms ownership, and to defend the sovereignty of the United States, and thus to decide not to sign this treaty."
However, Kerry released a statement about the treaty, saying:
"We look forward to signing it as soon as the process of conforming the official translations is completed satisfactorily. [The treaty is] an important contribution to efforts to stem the illicit trade in conventional weapons, which fuels conflict, empowers violent extremists, and contributes to violations of human rights."
White House Press Secretary Jay Carney has indicated that President Obama intends to sign the treaty by the end of August. Speaking on behalf of Obama, Carney said:
“We believe it’s in the interest of the United States. While we look forward to signing the treaty, there are remaining translation issues that need to be resolved.”
Notice that the time frame that Obama has given for his signature of the UN Arms Trade Treat just happens to coincide with Congress’s summer recess, which makes me wonder if he is going to try to pull something like a recess appointment to push it through without congressional approval. But legally, he can’t because in order for an international treaty of any kind to become binding to the United States, it must be passed by a two-thirds majority vote of the Senate. At this time, it does not appear that there is enough support in the Senate to muster up 67 out of 100 votes.
Ratified or not, it’s clear that the Democratic Party continues to do their part in turning over US sovereignty to a radically liberal organization that is against everything America stands for. The UN is against capitalism and the American way of government. They have been actively undermining the Christian religion, traditional family values, parental authority and free speech. The UN passed a massive hate crimes bill that makes any form of language against homosexuality to be a hate crime. Preaching the Bible is a hate crime according to the UN.
So is it any wonder that Kerry and Obama want to just join the UN efforts to undermine and destroy America? I, for one, believe that the United Nations is a terrorist organization that is actively trying to overthrow the US and subvert our way of life. They need to be kicked out of our country. Let them build a towering office building in a nation that really cares. Leaving the UN would also save us hundreds of billions of dollars that could go a long way to putting American back on our financial feet.
