Obama Administration Is Set to Give Away American Sovereignty to U.N.
Freedom Outpost ^ | 4/10/2016 | Michael Ware

Not unlike the Climate Treaty Obama signed lasts summer, there is now in the works a similar treaty which will give vast control of the world’s oceans over to the U.N. This move will once again grant to the U.N. authority that the Constitution forbids.

Fox reports:

The United Nations has launched a far-reaching initiative that could give U.N.-sponsored authorities sway over the biological resources of the high seas—all the waters that lie outside national territories and economic zones.

The potential shift in power involves multi-trillion-dollar issues, such as whether large areas—conceivably, as much as 30 percent– of the world’s international waters should be designated as no-go areas to protect biological diversity; whether and how to require elaborate “environmental impact assessments” for future ocean development projects; and how to divide up the economic benefits from the future development of “marine genetic resources.”

This treaty has many layers. First, it will set aside large areas for reserves, much like what we see in parks in the Midwest. This will be done in the name of preservation. This will mean that places like the seas off the North East will be closed to fishing.

This will produce a significant economic drop and a shift in wealth. Fish, which was $2.00 a pound, will be $10.00 a pound.

The next thing will be a sharing of technology. When someone puts significant amounts of capital into discovering genetic resources, they will have to share with member nations. This will kill most drive for such spending and discovery. It will insure no edge in the market and will eventually come to the country free via someone else’s risk.

And third, there is the never absent sharing of wealth. Within the treaty will be provisions that will make high producers share portions of their profits with lower income nations. This will again stunt production and innovation.

With all of this, there is nothing worse than the fact that this treaty will then give legal power to nonelected, non-American boards. These boards will have the ability to sanction and punish American companies.

Fox continues:

Like the climate treaty, the intended oceans treaty envisages transfers of marine technology and investment to developing nations as part of the deal, along with some still far-from-specified portion of the wealth derived from marine biological discoveries, including genetic breakthroughs.

“One of the things we are looking at is how marine genetic resources will be conserved, sustainably used, and how the dividends will be shared,” says Speer.

And according to Fox, Obama is all in on this treaty. They are giving our country away, through treaties.

'True' Americans need not worry. Republicans are in the majority in Congress and will move quickly to slap this phony president up aside his pointy head with the Constitution.

Or maybe not.

This sad period in our history will pass, but our radioactive children and grandchildren will spit on our graves!

What’s the problem, Congress has been giving money to the UN for decades, and giving them way too much leeway, to do whatever the 7734 upside down and backwards that they want, that by now the sovereignty of the UN is so well established the only way of dealing with it is to collapse the structure into the east river and kiss their charter a well deserved good by and good riddance.

PS: I have no idea short of looking at my maps whether the structure is anywhere near the East River, but it sounds good so there you are.

..30 percent– of the world’s international waters should be designated as no-go areas to protect biological diversity...

Creating no go areas on the oceans have historically been considered acts of war.

The East River isn’t too far away that we cannt throw the UN in ... preferably during a blizzard.

Unless it is actually passed by the Senate as a treaty, it has no legal effect even if signed by the President. That’s what happened with Versailles, Kyoto, and the Paris Climate Accords.

"Obama Administration Is Set to Give Away American Sovereignty"

Is it really just the Obama Administration doing this?

The Republicans have controlled both houses since 2014.

There isn't much going on these days that doesn't have their tacit approval.

Hit it on the head. And they are not worried about a Canadian candidate, either since it will just be the North American Union from now on!

Senator Lugar a RINO sided with Obama on this. My guess Senator McConnell will do nothing. He is too busy with #NeverTrump.

Lugar left the senate three years ago. He was a far left of center RINO asshat.

How wise America’s establishment is to foist a phony negro president upon us to ruin our nation, our lives and to guarantee that our future will be nothing but bleak.

Obama Admin would LITERALLY HAND OVER THE HOUSE KEYS of the USA to a global or even a particular power outside the US on his last day, if he could. AND HE PROBABLY CAN. The media headline reaction would be “Jennifer Lawrence Pregnant With Twins”

Hussein Obama says, “Pass the doggie ribs, they’re delicious!”

Mitch says, “Yum, yum, you’re so right!”

Paul says, “Righty, right!”
