Executive Order Amended to Immunize INTERPOL In America - Is The ICC Next?
By Steve Schippert, Clyde Middleton | December 23, 2009
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.
Enemies within? Manchurian Candidate?

No doubt.

A fascist coup has occurred. This cant go on for 3 more years.

Something’s gotta give......
I have no words other than Treason!
Can we even last three more years without unreversable damage?
I really do think the last election was a coup.
later
I think the 2nd link in post #40 might be a good start.
>> I have a question: WHAT HAPPENS IF
Indeed.
But why is this immunity necessary to begin with?
What inadequacies exist within the U.S. that require such exceptions to the Constitution and our sovereignty for the benefit and interest of foreign governments?
How does this affect U.S. military operations, those in the military, Americans overseas, those of foreign nations seeking asylum here in the U.S.?
I would like to believe there is some pragmatic benefit to the EO, but if we consider this an extension of the other trends towards Socialism, I fear our Liberties have suffered another blow.

Home > Library > History, Politics & Society > Intelligence & Security EncyclopediaAs the United States branch of Interpol, an international police organization, the National Central Bureau (NCB) in Washington, D.C., serves as a communications clearing-house for police seeking assistance in criminal investigations that cross international boundaries. Directed by the U.S. Attorney General and representing sixteen law enforcement agencies under the Department of Justice in conjunction with the Department of the Treasury, the USNCB focuses on fugitives, financial fraud, drug violations, terrorism, and violent crimes. It can refuse to respond to any of the 200,000 annual inquiries from other nations and, as required by Interpol bylaws, does not assist in the capture of people sought for political, racial, or ethnic reasons.
Although Interpol dates back to 1923, the USNCB did not come into existence until the 1960s because of a lukewarm American attitude toward the organization. Hesitant about the benefits of international policework, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) in the Department of Justice did not post wanted notices with Interpol until 1936. When J. Edgar Hoover (18951972), head of the FBI from 1924 to 1972, observed Interpol’s success in apprehending criminals, his subsequent support of the police force prompted Congress to order the Attorney General to accept Interpol membership in 1938. Hoover became the permanent American representative to Interpol with only the FBI authorized to do business with the group. In 1950, Hoover pulled the FBI out of Interpol for reasons that remain unclear. The Treasury, however, continued to maintain informal contact with the organization and became the official U.S. representative in 1958. When the U.S. decided to establish an NCB in 1962 as part of Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy’s fight against organized crime, the history of American involvement dictated a sharing of power between the two agencies, with Justice as the dominant partner.
The NCB became operational in 1969 with a staff of three and an annual caseload of 300. Agents are complemented by computer specialists, analysts, translators, and administrative and clerical support personnel drawn largely from the ranks of the Department of Justice. The agents operate in divisions dedicated to specific investigative areas while the analysts review case information to identify patterns and links. The law enforcement agencies represented at the USNCB include the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms; the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA); the Environmental Protection Agency; the FBI; the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network; the Fish and Wildlife Service; the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS); Internal Revenue Service; U.S. Customs Service; the Department of Agriculture; the Department of Justice, Criminal Division; the Department of State; the U.S. Marshals Service; the U.S. Mint; the U.S. Postal Inspection Service; and the U.S. Secret Service. Additionally, each state, the District of Columbia, and New York City have established points of contact to receive international criminal reports from the NCB.
The USNCB operates by linking the Treasury Enforcement Computer System, the FBI’s National Crime Information Center, the INS files, and the DEA records to Interpol. The international organization then funnels information from country to country. Classified information, including the vast majority of international terrorism cases, is not placed by the U.S. into Interpol channels because the flow of intelligence cannot be controlled and there are concerns that terrorists may tap into Interpol’s intelligence system to plan strikes against the U.S. However, Interpol is utilized as a weapon against potential terrorists. The U.S. began accepting counter-terrorism cases in 1985. In 1990, the U.S. and Canadian governments established an Interpol Interface between the USNCB and the Canadian NCB in Ottawa. This link allows police to tap into law enforcement networks across the border to verify driver registrations and vehicle ownership.
The USNCB has grown considerably since its founding, responding to the increasing internationalization of crime as well as a jump in the numbers of foreign nationals entering the country. As these trends are likely to continue, the USNCB will likely see its crime fighting role increase in the future.
“We should be establishing networks, lines of communication now.’
I have long said that. For security and also potential cataclysm. Say there was a major earthquake, and half the country loses power, how would we communicate with fellow Freepers. We should have physical addresses, phone numbers,
cell phone numbers, lists of those with ham radio, etc. There should be regional telephone trees established.
One Freeper was boasting how they were still communicating during the NE blizzaed last week while their mail delivery stopped, as if the internet was more secure. Ha.
Standing on some grass holding a sign was fun. But that’s sooooo 2009.
**************
No one can say we didnt give them fair warning.
Soo, any Interpol farkers out there reading this?
Come and arrest me a-holes, i am willing to be the test case to see what happens when an American arrested in America is denied his constitutional rights by an international police force a/k/a obama’s goonsquad PIGS. Bring it, baby. we need a match to light the fire..

The Executive Order is tantamount to an un-ratified treaty therefore it’s unconstitutional and not legal.
Peacefully? Peace is gone. Piece is here.
To coin a phrase, NO JUSTICE, NO PEACE...NO MORE!
As if they care! It’s a wonder we don’t all have AIDS by now from them spitting on us so often.
Day by day, almost minute by minute now, we are one step closer to totalitarianism. We’ll be taking to the forests pretty soon.
