EU Parallel (European Union)

But Fox sees a large impediment to his vision: "what I dare to call the Anglo-Saxon prejudice against the establishment of supra-national organizations."

This vision of Vicente Fox is shared by many within the American Establishment (in fact, it is driven from behind the scenes by that Establishment, which makes it so dangerous – see Internationalism/Globalism). No less a figure than the editor of The Wall Street Journal has embraced the idea of a EU for the Americas:

These far-reaching visions of an evolving FTAA are much more than the revolutionary musings of the editor of a major American newspaper or of a Mexican President billed as reformist. In less public forums, FTAA advocates fully admit that the FTAA is intended to follow in the footsteps of the EU.

As with the EU, national borders will become like state borders. There will be no longer be an immigration problem because there will be no more immigration – only migration of populations at will.

Moreover, if the globalist plans for the FTAA succeed, the U.S. will soon be enmeshed in the same kind of supranational, regional government that is now swallowing the formerly independent nations of the European Union.

Judging from the following that Fidel Castro has among the regimes to the south, the make-up of such a regional government in this hemisphere would undoubtedly be hostile to American interests and to the American middle class.

Two centuries ago, the United States separated from England in part over the issue of taxation without representation. The current plans for hemispheric integration would cancel that achievement. The envisioned regional government, fully socialist in inclination, would doubtless covet the wealth of individual Americans who would lack any meaningful representation in the emerging government or protection against its assumption of authority. Americans would no longer control their own property or have a significant voice in their own destiny. And they would give up the protection of the U.S. Bill of Rights and other American standards of justice.

Strong evidence that the FTAA planners view the emerging European Union as a model for this hemisphere is contained in Western Hemisphere Economic Integration, a study published in 1994 by the Institute for International Economics, with close ties to the Rockefeller-dominated organizations that are behind the FTAA. For an analysis of this study, refer to "One-Hemisphere Under the Fed" in the "Archives".

Actually, the American Insiders driving the FTAA are not mere copycat observers of the EU example. They were, in fact, the principal architects behind the drive for a united Europe. A few years ago, declassified government documents revealed that our own intelligence community had funded and directed the Euro-federalist movement in the fifties and sixties. (See "Global Tyranny ... Bloc by Bloc" in "Recommended reading," below.)

With the so-called Laeken Declaration in December of 2002, the Eurocrats raised the ante, calling for a year-long convention to draw up a European constitution. This convention, known formally as the Convention on the Future of Europe, was the culmination of a decades-long process of transferring sovereignty via treaty. So in 2003, the EU launched a constitutional convention to formally legalize and expand the EU’s powers and to administer the coup de grace to the lingering shreds of national sovereignty.

In a speech to members of the European Parliament, European Commission President Romano Prodi, speaking of the goals of the convention, warned that "only united can we put our own humanist stamp on globalisation and infuse it with Europe’s social values.... I am convinced that we need a Constitution to mark the birth of Europe as a political entity.... [The Union] is not an alliance between States or a federation. It is an advanced supranational democracy that needs to be strengthened."

Merger Mania - The New American - September 20, 2004 - European Union member nations are close to voting on a newly created Constitution. Europeans are awakening to the serious reality of losing their independence.

EU Socialist Manifesto - The New American - September 20, 2004 - In the words of the Declaration of Independence, we “are endowed by [our] Creator with certain unalienable rights,” such as life, liberty and property. Moreover, to “secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.” That is, our rights come from God, not from government or rulers. Government is the servant, not the master. This is so fundamental that it cannot be overstated.

The Anti-Christian EU - The New American - September 20, 2004 - Ake Green, a Pentecostal pastor in Sweden, was sentenced to a month in prison for the supposed crime of preaching against the sin of homosexuality. In a 2003 sermon, Green described the vice as “abnormal, a horrible cancerous tumor in the body of society” and its practitioners as “perverts … whose sexual drive the Devil has used as his strongest weapon against God.”

The “New European Soviet” - The New American - September 6, 2004 - The European Union is rapidly descending into totalitarianism. Under NAFTA and the proposed FTAA, U.S. policymakers have adopted the same socialist EU program.

Eurocrats vs. Freedom of the Press - The New American - July 12, 2004 - Last March, investigative journalist Hans-Martin Tillack was awakened by the proverbial “midnight knock” on the door of his Brussels home. Belgian police, acting on the orders of the European Commission’s anti-fraud unit (known by its French acronym Olaf), confiscated 17 boxes of records, as well as his computer, cell phones, diary, bank statements and address book. Olaf had accused Tillack of bribing agency officials to obtain information used in a 2002 fraud exposé he published in the German magazine Stern.

The Emerging European Soviet - The New American - May 31, 2004 - The European Union — adding new members and completing a Constitution — threatens the freedom of Europe and foreshadows similar processes under way with the FTAA.

EU Deception: Wider & Deeper - The New American - December 6, 2002 - The Irish referendum and the drive for a European constitution show that the Euro-elitists will employ every deception. U.S. elites are following the EU example with the FTAA.

European Superstate in the Making - The New American - May 6, 2002 - Over the course of half a century, the architects of the European Union’s various incarnations have lied to conceal their true goal of a socialist regional superstate.

Erasing Our Borders - The New American - May 6, 2002 - Globalists are maneuvering America into a merger with the rest of the Western Hemisphere via "free trade" agreements. Their goal, as with the EU, is regional government.

What the EU Can Teach America - The New American - January 28, 2002 - Americans must learn from the plight of Europeans who are losing freedom because they believed economic gains were the only goal of each new attack on sovereignty.

Global Tyranny … Bloc by Bloc - The New American - April 9, 2001 - The construction of a world super-state is progressing one chunk at a time with NAFTA set to become the "European Union" of the Western Hemisphere.

Globalism’s Growing Grasp - The New American - February 28, 2000 - The cause of world government is coming out of the closet and into the open. But behind the mask of a benign new world order lies the true face of tyranny.

From what I've seen of the EU America is served best when left alone to do as she pleases.

To join socialist countries in this hemisphere would be to weaken American sovereignty, and destroy those rights granted to us in the Constitution.

If Mexico and Canada wish to be "Americanized" that's fine, but why would Americans wish to be socialized?

The concerns of the author are shared by many. But the "New American" cannot be the only source for raising the issues of NAFTA and the Free Trade America zone.
Any other references?

How about our own eye and ears, and our brain!! I'm looking for another source also, but my heart and brain comes up with 1+1=2 on these articles; even if they are from one source. I understand why you are questioning only one source though!

I see one source listed because our friends at the MSM apparantly like the idea of being silent. That is the most unsettling part is because nobody seems to care. Eventually they can merge with their comrades at Pravda.

It's not that no one seems to care, They are all in bed together, for the undermining of the US COnstitution and the implementing of their Socialist Agenda. The reason the MSM pays no attention to it is because they don't want to bring any attention to it.

How many times have you heard, Well there must not be any credibility to this story, because no one else has picked up on it, or said anything about it. They all know about it!! Are part of it! Like a thief in the night they don't want anyone to know what they are up to!!

They are part of the teams to take us over and massage us into their form of Socialist. No God, the acceptance of Homosexuality, One World Government, etc. Those who oppose them will be killed, they don't really care!!
