writing up the treaty is one thing, putting manpower on site to watch every inch of it is another. That's my point.

Controlling land use pursuant to that treaty is done with US officials: judges, zoning laws, and permits. Best you read up a little on how treaties are the foundation of US environmental laws that empower bureaucratic takings.

They are wildly sucessful in California, here is how they do it.

They do not need UN personel to patrol just the multitude of NGOs that are out there. The NGOs do all the policing, and file the lawsuits. They are very effective in stifling freedom and freedom of movement in California.

Do not forget that a treaty overrides the Constitution. It becomes part of the supreme law of the land. There are groups who will use this treaty to harass and try and destroy freedom. The first court battle should start within a few days of this treaty being ratified by an inept anti-American Senate. This is why we need to repeal the 17th amendment to the Constitution and move the selection of Senators back to where the founders put it - in the states house of representatives - that way we can have some Americans supporters in the Senate who will respond to the American people.
