Some ships need to sink.
Catholic and pro-life ping!
Who needs sovereignty? Doesn’t everyone long to be governed by people faraway who speak a different language? No?
Outside Europe, huh?
I hope that there are knowledegeable people on this thread who can answer a few obvious questions:
Broke what law, specifically?
Whose law is it?
Sovereign countries actually signed away their sovereignty to an administrative body exactly where?
What is the enforcement mechanism of the "court" which issued this decision? Is it a self appointed group of lunatics in Belgium again?
Can the "law" or the applicable agreement be viewed somewhere and, if there are voluntary signatories, are they free to withdraw without cause?
So many questions, so many moonbats celebrating...
I mean beyond the fact that a death ship is circulating the globe in search of children to kill and the abortionist and foundress is delighted with the finding.
Where are the Somali pirates when you need them?
You can't get more oxymoronic than that - we need to recognise the killing of innocent, defenseless humans as a human rights issue.
Some country should fire on this murder ship.
As are most things "international," this subject is a can of worms, subject to claims and assumptions not supported by the facts.
Let's start with the membership of this delusional "world" body. Only members of the 47-member Council of Europe are subject to its jurisdiction. So much for cruising the world for countries to harrass.
Secondly, Members are presumably free to withdraw membership. I have no intention of trying to unravel its rules and contradictions; I have enough trouble (as does Tom Daschle) with the US IRS code...
Anyone masochistic enough to want to understand this group (which does not have an standing army to enforce its findings) can start here:
A nice lawyerly way of saying that the rights of the folks on the death ship to "express" themselves, trump Portugal's right to determine which vessels enter its waters. They've used a kind of "free speech" loophole, here. They're effectively saying that Portugal has stymied the supposed rights to "free speech" of the ladies on the death ship.
Ridiculous, really but we know how the game is played by now, don't we?
Let's say I wanted to sail a ship into Dutch or Belgian territorial waters which broadcast the message that homosexual acts were offensive to God. How far would that ship get, I wonder? If it wasn't sunk on sight, I think I'm safe in saying that it would receive zero help from the European Court of Human Rights. In fact, I'm willing to bet that they'd actually prosecute me for hate speech. You see, rights of ....."expression" only extend so far in today's Europe. They're bestowed upon abortionists but not Christians.
I say let the Moslems have at it. Let them overrun this European cess pit and lynch every liberal, abortion-peddling, homosexuality-promoting secular humanist they can find. Most of the remaining Christians will already have been forced into exile by that stage, anyway.
Now that’s an idea!!
I am not trying to understand them and don’t give a hoot about some international organization.
The fact that such a ship exists is enough to send chills down my spine. I will sleep better if the ship sinks with all aboard by natural forces, unnatural force, mechanical failure or mysterious circumstances.
I would qualify my statement to say I hope that the third county nationals (or others that crew the ship and have no idea what evil purpose they are supporting)could be rescued.
FWIW
My U.S. employer is a fanatic on diversity and rights of gays,etc.But ,I have noticed consistently that Americans holding the traditional views of Christianity do more work and cause less trouble.
Loose lips sink ships!
whatever happened to national soveriegnty?? oh right, national socialism
Abortion and euthanasia are thus crimes which no human law can claim to legitimize. There is no obligation in conscience to obey such laws; instead there is a grave and clear obligation to oppose them by conscientious objection.
