The United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS)is the biggest giveaway of American sovereignty and resources since Jimmy Carters Panama Canal Treaty. It creates a global tax on American companies and turns the riches of the oceans, including oil, gas and minerals, over to the United Nations.
The 202-page treaty document was described by the late leftist Senator Alan Cranston as "the most far-reaching and comprehensive system created thus far by the global community." UNCLOS mandates a global tax on corporations which exploit ocean resources, an International Seabed Authority to collect the revenue, and an International Tribunal on the Law of the Sea to govern ocean affairs. It also:
UNCLOS was written by members and supporters of the World Federalist movement, a group dedicated to world government through passage of treaties and expansion of the U.N.
Because these acts or treaties were signed on in July and August 1996.
Let me find the EXACT phrase to answer your question. Give me a few to go through what I have. I saw it the other day.
You found the documents of condition with the signatures? That is what I’ve been looking for.
Anyone who supports giving away our sovereignty shouldn’t hold public office.

The Senate will have another committee meeting this month.
The only witness that are going to be called are PRO-TREATY.
I don’t think we know any of that unless we find the document that was attached to the signature. There was a footnoted document for the Part XI signed in July 1996 and the Fish stocks in August 1996.
Plus, we have been seeing individual states ratifying with the UN since.

I can't do charts very well but the headers are:
United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea:
Declarations made upon signature,/ ratification, /accession or succession or anytime thereafter
From here, yes: http://www.un.org/Depts/los/reference_files/status2007.pdf
Part XI was signed in July 1996
The fish August 1996
ATTACHED to signature was a document. See the document symbol in the date of signature. No name of the document, no reference where to find it.
I see what you mean. Let me go have a look.
During the extensive negotiations of Chapter 17 of Agenda 21, "Protection of oceans, all kinds of seas including enclosed and semi-enclosed seas, coastal areas and the protection, rational use and development of their living resources," the issue of high seas fisheries proved to be among the most difficult. At the conclusion of PrepCom III, which was held in August 1991 in Geneva, straddling and highly-migratory fish stocks were one of five unresolved issues in the section on living marine resources. The issue proved so divisive that the Secretariat did not prepare text on high seas fisheries in its draft of Chapter 17 of Agenda 21 for the start of PrepCom IV, held in March 1992 in New York. For nearly four of the five weeks of PrepCom IV a contact group on marine living resources (Programme Areas C and D of Chapter 17) met behind closed doors and attempted to reach consensus. By the conclusion of PrepCom IV, consensus remained elusive and the Plenary adopted the Oceans chapter with brackets around the paragraphs on straddling and highly migratory fish stocks.
I'm still looking for the document. There are links with links. I don't think we're supposed to find them. At some meetings there is no written record, only audio.

I’m not at my desk (homework time); but tidbit on Agenda 21. It is short script for 2010.
That is why this election is so important. The left needs someone elected that will sign the remaining treaties. They all need to be ratified by 2010.

I hate Bush....
It has never been ratified by the senate although senator Lugar has tryed repeatedly. Now it is up for senate ratifacation again.
Going through pdf after pdf the traitors in this country are astounding in their betrayal. From citizens, ambassadors, military, business, politicians from all levels have screwed us over for their new god, a single concentration of power located in every country - the un.
Since the Spring, I have repeatedly emailed Senator Lugar demanding his resignation to no avail.
