The U.N. Threat to Internet Freedom

On Feb. 27, a diplomatic process will begin in Geneva that could result in a new treaty giving the United Nations unprecedented powers over the Internet. Dozens of countries, including Russia and China, are pushing hard to reach this goal by year's end. As Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin said last June, his goal and that of his allies is to establish "international control over the Internet" through the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), a treaty-based organization under U.N. auspices.

Still think we're paranoid loons?

Anyone involved in politics (and that applies to the greater part of the Catholic clergy) is, in psychological terms, in intimate "contact with the devil"

The UN is a possible threat to anything the US wants to dominate and control.
The answer to how the sham of Belgium's existence could be pulled off is simple: we weren't vigilant enough. We let them gain the power over us needed to distort reality to fit their fiendish plans. But it's not too late. The truth can still be made known.

I believe that all government is evil, and that trying to improve it is largely a waste of time.
 - H. L. Mencken

Historically, the most terrible things -- war, genocide, and slavery -- have resulted not from disobedience, but from obedience.
- Howard Zinn

In obedience there is always fear, and fear darkens the mind.
 - Krishnamurti, 'Beginnings of Learning'

Hoping that this "civilization" will change is like hoping that a rabid foaming at the mouth wolf will change into a nice doggie. Ain't gonna happen! The best solution is for the rabid wolf to crawl off somewhere and die.
- Bosch

As for me, I harbour not the slightest doubt that the United States is about to commit and lead the world towards the greatest mistake in its history.
 - Fidel Castro Ruz - March 21, 2012
