In the dead of night on December 17, 2009, President Barack Hussein Obama placed the United States of America under the authority of the international police organization known as INTERPOL, granting the organization full immunity to operate within the United States.
According to Threatswatch:
Last Thursday, December 17, 2009, The White House released an Executive Order "Amending Executive Order 12425." It grants INTERPOL (International Criminal Police Organization) a new level of full diplomatic immunity afforded to foreign embassies and select other "International Organizations" as set forth in the United States International Organizations Immunities Act of 1945. By removing language from President Reagan's 1983 Executive Order 12425, this international law enforcement body now operates - now operates - on American soil beyond the reach of our own top law enforcement arm, the FBI, and is immune from Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA) requests.
What, exactly does this mean? It means that INTERPOL now has the full authority to conduct investigations and other law enforcement activities on U.S. soil, with full immunity from U.S. laws such as the Freedom of Information Act and with complete independence from oversight from the FBI.
In short, a global law enforcement entity now has full law-enforcement authority in the U.S. without any check on its power afforded by U.S. law and U.S. law enforcement agencies.

“Police state” has a pretty specific meaning. This new policy, while doubtless a bad idea, doesn’t by itself cause the US to meet the standard. Any more than most members of the EU are “police states.”
Liberals can’t stand the idea of a sovereign America.
So I guess that now we can expect Dick Cheney and GW Bush to be dragged off to the Hague for trial.
The goal is world socialism and subjecting the U. S. to world government. They must think it can be done in one term.
You can’t grant diplomatic immunity to an organization, just it’s individual members. This just means that people working for Interpol can be granted diplomatic immunity and get out of paying parking tickets. It doesn’t give them any police powers within the US. And they can be kicked out of the country if we want. And if Interpol consents they can be put on trial.
When I first saw this story a week or so ago, I did not think about it in this light, just more of why an Executive order for immunity to conduct inquires? So, does this now mean if you are not an approved person or affiliated with the correct party line that you can be snatched and taken out of the country or assassinated? Like a ghost in the night they can come and go as they please without question? So, where are all those that were complaining about the Patriot Act; oh, thats right, they are in power now uhm mmmm-mmmm-mmmmh. So if they are immune, if you smash their faces in when they bother you, will they feel it? One more item, is this the beginning of Obamas SS civilian police force, greater than that of the military.
“This just means that people working for Interpol can be granted diplomatic immunity and get out of paying parking tickets.”
Parking tickets?
They are also now immune for killing and/or abducting American citizens.
We're here for the interpol tryouts.
Ho really, have you ever watched or been paying attention to what goes on at the Foreign Nations Association and diplomatic immunity? Could this be the beginning of Obamas SS civilian police force greater than that of the military.
Our constitutional rights cannot be removed by Executive Order. I dare them to challenge mine.
I suggest they refrain from coming to my home.
Not true, this diplomatic immunity gives them much more leaway to do whatever work they endeavor to do on US soil, by granting them 'immunity' from, for example, the FBI or local police placing constraints on their activity by pulling 'rank'. Now they can say: "Get out of the way, I've got diplomatic immunity here and can continue my investigations as I want". In any case, when you say they can be kicked out of the country if "we" want to, what you're really saying is "if OBAMA wants to". He is now the "we".
Glen Beck, please pick up the white courtesy phone.
The executive order is really quite frightening to anyone who is concerned about sovereignty and our Constitution. It specifically exempts the international organization Interpol from American law as to search and seizure of its property or assets. Interpol can now conduct investigations in the US (it always could), collect evidence which can now be withheld from US law enforcement, and use that evidence against US citizens in international cases. Evidence could be collected by US agencies and turned over to Interpol and would forever be unavailable through the American justice system unless Interpol chose to release it.
You have to wonder why such an executive order and what Obama hopes to accomplish by it. If a certain birth certificate were turned over to Interpol, no one could obtain it. If certain global warming evidence were in the custody of Interpol, we could never access it through the US courts.
So where is this property of Interpol? In the US (where this executive order applies) it’s at the US Department of Justice in DC, the National Central Bureau of Interpol. So Obama has just put property and assets at DOJ outside of legal access.
Interpol is the descendant of the Gestapo
Maybe this is how they will go after gun owners?
Here is something else to consider:

A Stability Police Force for the US http://www.rand.org/pubs/monographs/2009/RAND_MG819.pdf
Think World Police, like Team America.
2010 is going to be one hell of a year.
Some thoughts by Andrew McCarthy:
http://corner.nationalreview.com/post/?q=MGY3MTI4YTRjZmYwMGU1ZjZhOGJmNmQ0NmJiZDNmMDY=
“This international police force (whose U.S. headquarters is in the Justice Department in Washington) will be unrestrained by the U.S. Constitution and American law while it operates in the United States ..”
“Interpol works closely with international tribunals (such as the International Criminal Court which the United States has refused to join because of its sovereignty surrendering provisions, though top Obama officials want us in it). It also works closely with foreign courts and law-enforcement authorities (such as those in Europe that are investigating former Bush administration officials for purported war crimes i.e., for actions taken in America’s defense).”
