The organization, called 21 IANSA (International Action Network on Small Arms), has been busy organizing gun-collection and gun-burning events in several countries. On June 22, a new 22 International Convention on Cyber-crime was readied for ratification by participating nations - including the United States. Despite President Bush's announcement that he would no longer pursue the Kyoto Protocol, he has agreed to pursue the "Kyoto process," whatever that is. It means that a delegation of Bush administration officials will be in Bonn, Germany later in July to continue negotiations toward some kind of international treaty related to reducing fossil-fuel energy use in the United States. The Convention on Biological Diversity was not ratified. In the waning moments of the 104th Congress, Senator George Miller, then Senate majority leader, withdrew the treaty from a vote because of the tremendous pressure brought by the grassroots property-rights and resource-use organizations. The Clinton administration, nevertheless, implemented the primary provisions of the treaty through executive orders and its "Ecosystem Management" policies. The net result is that every square inch of land in the United States, public or private, is subject to policies guided by international treaties - ratified or not. Through international treaties, the United Nations is attempting to take control of small arms, control the use of fossil fuel energy, control or eliminate the use of certain chemicals essential to the manufacture of plastics, and control how both public and private lands are used. In every facet of life, the United Nations is actively seeking to impose its vision of how Americans, and everyone else in the world, should live. It is no accident that Representative Chris Shays (R-CT) has introduced HR488, that specifically calls for the creation of such wilderness areas, connected by corridors of wilderness, in a massive five-state area in the west. Little by little, one policy after another, one law built upon another, the goals of the United Nations are being imposed upon the citizens of the United States. If the next 10 years produce the steady march toward global governance that we have experienced during the last 10 years, what little land is left in private hands in America will be of little use without government approval. The freedom to move about the country in the convenience and privacy of your own automobile will be a memory, except for the super-rich and the politically well-connected. Gone will be the free flow of information through the Internet. Many of the most useful, convenience products, made with plastics, will be outlawed. Any gun that you may own will likely be illegal, unless it is registered and approved by the government. Next year, in Johannesburg, South Africa, the United Nations will hold another celebration called 25 "Rio+10", or the Johannesburg Summit. More than 64,000 people are expected to gather there to measure and celebrate the progress toward global governance. Far too many Americans fail to see any problem with this agenda - and many are actively promoting it. Others see that national sovereignty cannot exist in a world governed by a central global government. Nations must become administrative units of the global governance machine. Even a cursory review of the influence the United Nations has already exerted over domestic policies in the United States, shows clearly how, through international treaties and agreements, the United Nations is taking control over our lives. Few people yet recognize that the source of control comes from the global-governance regime. Most people blame Washington, but it is bigger than Washington. Washington - Congress and the administration - must bear the blame for yielding to international pressure. But make no mistake about it: The policies that most constrict and erode our individual freedoms, originate in the international community.
