Law Of the Sea Treaty (LOST) gives the U.N. control over world's oceans

[rambone]

There are reports that the Law Of the Sea Treaty (LOST) is going to be revived by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. This globalist treaty gives the United Nations sovereignty over 70% of the earth's surface. It establishes international taxes, international courts, international bureaucracies, and international enforcement agencies.


Senate Cannot Pass a Budget, But Could Vote Limiting Liberty

The United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS or LOST, “Law of the Sea), which cedes control of all the world’s oceans and their contents, including our territorial waters, to the U.N. As a nation we lose our sovereignty with passage of this treaty. The treaty was established by the U.N. in 1994 but Obama administration and Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman John Kerry (D-MA) are beginning a new push to seek ratification. Senator Dick Lugar requested that Kerry hold off on the ratification process until after his primary, because he was inclined to support the treaty but recognized that his support could be used against him politically. The Law of the Sea treaty has sat dormant through both previous Democrat and Republican administrations, insiders on capital hill are of the belief that a vote will be taken soon.;

THE CREATURE FROM THE OCEAN'S FLOOR - THE LAW OF THE SEA TREATY

The Treaty would essentially give the United Nations, a notoriously corrupt, anti-American, anti-capitalist and un-democratic organization, the power to assert control over 70% of the earth’s surface.

Using the regulations issued by the ISA, the United Nations would now be given the power to levy international fees and taxes on American companies. Mining approvals would be highly politicized and could discriminate against American operators. The United Nations would be given the power to regulate ocean research, exploration, fishing, marine environmental protection and navigation. They could even impose production quotas and licensing requirements on American fishermen operating in international waters.

The United Nations, through the ISA, would be given the power to create an international court system to render and enforce its judgments! This new system would lie outside the jurisdiction of the U.S. legal system and the U.S. Constitution, leaving American citizens and businesses at the mercy of international tribunals whose corrupt UN bureaucrats could subject them to Sharia Law or other non-Western legal traditions.

The Treaty calls for prosperous member nations like the United States to provide financial and technical assistance not only to developing countries, but also to "people who have not attained full independence or other self-governing status" (codeword for groups such as the Palestinians).

The Treaty would do irreparable harm to U.S. military and intelligence operations and would force the United States to hand over proprietary technology to less developed third-world countries, many of whom are actively hostile to U.S. interests. Giving up the U.S. Navy’s long established primary mission of “maintaining freedom of the seas for all” and handing it over to a historically corrupt organization like the United Nations should be unthinkable.

The most important objection concerns Article 314 of The Law of the Sea Treaty (located in Part XVII) that empowers the LOST member Assembly, dominated by nations of the developing world, to amend the terms of the treaty over the objection of any individual member state. In other words, the terms of the treaty could be changed significantly and the United States would have to abide by those changes without the U.S. Senate having the opportunity to consent to the changes. This undermines U.S. sovereignty and is clearly unconstitutional.

The Law of the Sea Treaty creates a new United Nations’ worldwide bureaucracy that will create a whole new restrictive system of destructive environmental regulations that would be costly and counter-productive to American businesses, while at the same time, handing over the hard-earned, American taxpayer money to many of our enemies.

The socialists, Marxists, globalists and other supporters of the New World Order keep pushing for this treaty.

History of LOST

Here's a good 10-minute briefing on LOST and its history.

You have piqued my interest. As a member of the naval reserves switching to active duty this fall... I am off to do some research.

Maybe the LOST could be modified after the first year to require all US naval vessels to remain in port? Including USCG sea and air? Think of the possibilities...

How about simply assigning control of all the world's naval assets to the UN?

How about given the UN and any non US staff 48 hours to get out of the country and blowing the building, and then turning that cursed piece of ground into a park?

Nah, no plans for world government. In purple.

With the UN running the oceans, it could be called "The Columbian Drug Submarine, Chinese Human Trafficking, and Somali Pirate Legalization Treaty."

Maybe the "Sharing Hijacked Inventory Treaty".

We need to call all the Senators and DEMAND they not vote for this. Anyone voting for this needs to be executed for treason and crimes against the American People!! Oh, by the way-Lugar is behind this 100% He will vote for it as the last thing he does.

That's why Obama is pushing this through now, before Lugar leaves the Senate. Scoundrels all.

I bet the Navy is loving this ....

 

[ilikeguns]

So many extremely important things like this swept under the rug and kept out of the mainstream except in passing ways. Lots of scary stuff out there and this is right at the top.

 

[ZombieApocolypse]

This is a bigegr threat than i had imagined. I didnt think there was any way possible this could pass. During lunch i was reading an article in the local paper, and it was saying we can only drill/mine etc up to 300 miles off our coast and that L.O.S.T. needs to get passed so we can have 300 MORE miles to drill and get precious minerals off our coasts.

The Sea Shepard Org sets the laws of the oceans, just ask them.

 

[Ted]

Bump. Too important to not forget.

Though other treaties, such as International Criminal Court, Small Arms Control, Outer Space Code of Conduct, and Rights of the Child treaties are just as important to stay apprised.

Damm, Guys. This makes my old God loving, Country loving, Gun loving heart pump alot faster.

With all that I have read on INGO and other Forums, the real SHTF stuff may just happen this year or early next year.

The elections of November 2012 will tell. So, November 2012 may well just become as important as July 1776. We will see.

 

[cobber]

Has the UN launched its navy yet? How exactly do they plan to enforce any of their treaties?

The thing about treaties is that they generally have no (or only a pathetic) provision for enforcement.

Even if we ratify a treaty, adherence to that treaty will be totally subject to our on-going consent.

Maybe it's time to deport the UN to a more welcoming venue, say Pyongyang?

Keep your powder dry and provisions well stocked! Couldn't agree more.
