Fischer calls to compromise

Minister of foreign affairs Joschka Fischer (the Green) called the USA seriously for giving in in the controversy over the international Court of Justice. Criticism at the US government is practiced however from all political camps.

Berlin - the Court of Justice is a "milestone of international law", said Fischer with a speech before the parliamentary meeting of the organization for security and co-operation in Europe (Organization for Security and Cooperation in Euro) on Saturday in Berlin.
"now we must set everything to place efficient and convincing work bases of the Court of Justice surely", added it. Fischer gave after immunity for US citizens taken part in UN employments indirectly a clear refusal to the demand of the US government. An immunity for certain person's groups became sense and purpose of the court statute contrary-runs, said the Minister. In addition UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan pointed out that this would undermine also the authority of the United Nations (UN).

Blue helmets make good rifle targets.

Watch out boys, they got cops.

UN police arrest suspects in last year's murder of Kosovo Albanian family
8 July – Police serving with the United Nations Interim Administration Mission in Kosovo (UNMIK) have arrested several suspects in connection with last year's murderous attack on a Kosovo Albanian family in Glogovac.

The arrests "resulted from investigations ongoing since the attack on 20 August 2001," UNMIK Officer Paul Hamlin told reporters on Saturday, referring to the crime against the Hajra family which resulted in the deaths of Mr. Hajra, his wife and three of his four children. "We believe we have found those responsible," he added.

UNMIK police arrested eight men, including three members of the Kosovo Protection Corps. All those arrested are now in detention and will be processed through the judicial system, according to Mr. Hamlin, who said follow-on searches were continuing in a number of locations.

The point I have been tring to make with my last three topics is, the new world order is closer than most people think.

Comming soon to a country near you.

The Office of the U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights signed a formal agreement with Mexico Monday to open an office in the country, the OHCHR announced.  The office is expected to be operational soon, following the appointment of its director.

U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights Mary Robinson and Mexican Foreign Minister Jorge Castaneda signed the accord, which will work with government and civil groups to help draw up a national human rights program that addresses issues including torture, indigenous rights, the administration of justice and the work of the national human rights commission.

"The office is part of an ambitious program for OHCHR and for Mexico," Robinson said.  "Our hope is that it will help the government and civil society analyze the human rights situation in depth so as to tackle the problems that still plague the country.  The commitment is there, but there will have to be implementation if we are to make a real difference in the lives of ordinary Mexicans" (U.N. release, July 1).  

Robinson said she had received reports of ongoing incidences of torture, disappearances and arbitrary arrests (Agencia EFE, July 2).  While the new OHCHR office would provide "tools" and "experience" in combating rights violations, "This is not a monitoring office," she said, calling on government officials to account for recent violations.  She pointed to the deaths of 26 people during a land conflict last month and the unsolved murders of 250 young women in Ciudad Juarez.

Robinson also praised recent government efforts to face up to past crimes.  "It is a very constructive step when a country acknowledges that there are serious human rights issues to be addressed," she said, welcoming the announcement that former President Luis Echeverria had agreed to testify on acts committed under his presidency during the "dirty war" of the 1960s and 1970s.  "It is very important that issues of past violations and impunity are being addressed," she said.  "You cannot build a good future for human rights if you will not address the dark periods of the past" (Alexander Hanrath, Financial Times, July 3).
 

Respectfully stated... FUCK THE UN & SHOVE THE WORLD COURT UP THEIR ASS.

I wonder how much they would beg for the US to come back if we just quit.  Don't know the numbers but the US is pretty much the UN's army/polic force correct?

What would happen if the other industrialized countries had to up their military budget...

And afterwards, a blue helmet can be used as a latrine or as a pot for a houseplant.

If you can get the shot under the helmet, keeping the blue helmet intact, makes a good pan for draining engine oil from your 4WD and carrying over to the storm sewer for proper disposal.

Can't read the rest of the story: webpage not found.

I take it that was a translation from German, ar10.

I keep trying to come up with a more or less eloquent reply to this crap, but since I just got off a 15-hr day and I'm tired as hell, I'll just say that the UN can go to hell. The sooner, the better.

In case anyone is interested: "Der Spiegel" is a commie propaganda rag to start with, "Minister of foreign affairs Joschka Fischer" is a former lawyer and defender of captured RAF (Red Army Faction) terrorists, there are photos and videos showing him throwing rocks and beating up cops during political demonstrations, and the Green Party, well, you wouldn't make a mistake calling them eco-nazis and commies.

*goes and listens to "The Ballad of UN and NATO"

Screw Them!

We're the Big Dog now...and it drives the European socialists crazy that we can just run the world without their input.

Fear not my friends...we ain't about to have black helos and blue helmeted UN troops visiting anytime soon.  Our Constitution retains its primace for the foreseeable future.  Now...having said that...I have my doubts IF a liberal like Algore or ever worse [shock] Hillary [puke] ever gets back into the White House.

Thing that makes my teeth hurt is that we saved their sorry asses twice...and they never fail to show their gratitude.

The article reads like it was written by Yoda.

BTW, if the Court of Justice is oh-so-high-and-mighty, why doesn't it issue an arrest warrant for

- Osama bin Laden & Co. for act of terrorisms
- Saddam Hussein for gassing the Kurds and other murderous acts
- Mugabi for murders of white farmers and confiscations of their lands, and, as a result, starvations of his own people

What? too obvious?

Yes

Try this one [url]www.spiegel.de/politik/[/url], and it is a commie rag, but a few people follow it closely in europe.

Rock on Javak!

Wow, the opportunity to say this to lots of people all at once. I cordially invite the United Nations, The Bilderbergs, The Trilateral Commission, Our dickhead Mayor, and our worthless Legislature who twice voted against the will of the people on term limits, and other collectivist morons to:

LICK MY HAIRY NUT BAG!!

Jesus I feel better....(This won't get me kicked off will it?)

"Welcome to Idaho, The Standoff State"

They won't need blue helmeted foreigners to do it. There are plenty of "LAW ENFORCEMENT" types who will gladly go after the "criminals" and "terrorists"......
