500 Million New Terrorists!

The world is becoming unsafer by the day. Before the end of November, half a billion new terrorists will be added to the list kept by the US government.

On November 30, one day before the Lisbon Treaty is scheduled to take effect, the ministers of justice of the EU's 27 member states will sign yet another security agreement with the US. It is supposed to be an essential weapon in the global “War on Terror” the US claims to be fighting.

Under the new agreement, the US government will get access to all the banking data of all Europeans. This means that from December 2009, every single financial transaction done by every single European banking customer will come under the scrutiny of the US authorities. Henceforth, whenever the US government suspects a European “citizen” of supporting terrorism, it can request all his or her banking data, including all bank statements as well as any and all personal data connected with the account.

No doubt, many people will fail to see much harm in this, because “they have nothing to hide.” But such an attitude is based on the assumption the US is governed by benign, rational individuals, controlled by an elaborate system of checks and balances.

...Within a few weeks, US authorities will gain full access to some of the most private data of all inhabitants of the European Union and this should be cause for alarm. After all, from a moral point of view the EU leadership (and of the 27 member states) is just as evil and corrupt as the US government.

I have not read this elsewhere. The Lisbon treaty seemed to require countries to give up some of their sovereignty Britain betrayed as hated EU treaty becomes law (UK Sun)

I have a feeling it might be part of a bigger global agenda which involves the United States also giving up our soverienty. This may be why Obama kepts apologizing for America, and also the push to get healthcare more uniform with other countries.

Federal Chancellor Merkel for a new global order (America needs to give authority to others)

German Chancellor Angela Merkel called Monday for more cooperation between nation states and the transfer of power to multilateral organizations such as the UN, in a speech ahead of anniversary celebrations of the fall of the Berlin Wall. "This world will not be a peaceful one if we do not work for more global order and more multilateral cooperation," said Merkel

There seems to be an agenda that is unconstitutional. I thought this was interestering.
