Interpol, In Your Midst

None of us can object to a police force, or an army, because humankind is too adept at being stupid and wicked. But, when a police force or army are used against the people they are meant to protect, they become agents of the wicked who wish to control us.

In an earlier article on Interpol I said that this global organisation now has complete diplomatic immunity to act as it wishes on US soil. It will not be long before it gains similar concessions worldwide. The reason it gained US approval first is that Obama has already promised America to the UN. But, some have misconstrued the situation…

Interpol has no special officers of its own, apart from HQ managers. Interpol acts through local police departments, seconding local officers to do its work in that particular country. This is what will make Interpol’s interventions so secret! The police officer at your door will not be wearing an Interpol badge, but the badge of your own local police force.

"as defined in the Homeland Security report identifying right-wing, military vets, etc. as a danger to the U.S."
Hey, that's me.

He has declared War on Fox News. I am wondering if this might be part of the tools to destroy open speech rebellion?

It all sounds so illegal and complicated, I don't know what to believe anymore.

Interpol's constitution states:
It is strictly forbidden for the Organization to undertake any intervention or activities of a political, military, religious or racial character.

There is something to this EO but I really think the bigger picture is being missed worrying about their police powers. IMO, the bigger concern is that of classifying Interpol files as inviolable. What kind of information is being blocked or what could potentially be hidden there?

Interpol-Washington (USNCB) comes directly under the authority of DOJ and Homeland Security. Eric Holder just recently swore in Timothy A Williams as new Director of Interpol-Washington.

Also, take a look at Interpol's activities in combatting "environmental" crime.

The mission of INTERPOL’s Environmental Crime Programme is to assist its member countries in the effective enforcement of national and international environmental laws and treaties. In this way we can contribute to the ongoing conservation of the world’s environment, biodiversity and natural resources.
The Environmental Crime Programme also works towards enhancing and developing the abilities of INTERPOL member countries at a national level, for example concerning the deterrence, apprehension, investigation and prosecution of environmental criminals, and it helps co-ordinate the actions of multiple countries in cases with international implications.

I ran across this article this morning

Pak shares DNA profiles with Interpol

Paris, March 22 (2009)
Pakistan has shared the DNA profiles of suspected terrorists linked to last year’s attacks in Mumbai with Interpol, the policy today said in what it called a benchmark move here.

Interpol, which has 187 member countries, said the information would allow it to help Pakistan’s Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) to determine “the full international dimension” of the attacks.

“Pakistan’s decision to send its DNA terrorist-related profiles to Interpol so that all member countries can compare their DNA profiles against them sets a benchmark for Interpol in terrorist-related investigations,” Interpol Secretary-General Ronald K Noble said in a statement.

Interpol had said in December that India had not shared information with it about the attacks, which killed 179 people.

Pakistan, under pressure over Indian accusations that the 10 gunmen who had attacked Mumbai came from Pakistan, had also complained that India had yet to provide it with any evidence to push its investigation forward.

Tensions between the two countries, which are both members of Interpol, worsened since the attacks on India’s financial heart that killed 179 people. — Reuters

In light of the new EO, I do wonder if we have passed on to Interpol information about citizens the US is not allowed to keep. Not only information about terrorists abroad, but those considered high risk (veterans, constitutionalists, right-to-life, a WH ‘enemies list’)

What was it Obama said? “We are taking names.”
