within 12 miles of our shores.

Darn. That should read: "to within 12 miles...."

"Iceberg..."

?????????????????????

It just hit me (excuse me but I have a cold and sore throat). Not thinking straight.

You mean I'm just hitting the tip of the iceberg.
Agreed

LOL That interpretation works but I was thinking that you and I and those other few who are trying to raise the alarm here seem to be like a mouse on the Titanic shouting 'iceberg' while the band plays and the people party. It's not your fault, my post was a little obscure. Highlight the post after that one.

Sorry to hear you are under the weather. That sore throat/cold thing is no fun. I nursed my wife through it; she was miserable.

This needs to be kept "bumped" for more exposure.

What makes me sick is how many people don't see what's happening in both parties.

Oh they see all right. They just don't want to throw their vote away by voting for a third party or ,horror of horrors, electing [whoever either party is promoting as the opposing demon], by taking votes from [whoever either party is promoting as the lesser of demons].

[TigersEye]

Bump back at you.

[GraniteStateConservative]

You forgot "corporatist", but otherwise spot on.

So why did Reagan oppose it?

[GraniteStateConservative]

I found this on the LOST--

"Proponents of the move say ratification is needed to ensure U.S. interests are included in international action in the arena and to protect resources up to 200 miles from U.S. shorelines as guaranteed under the convention."

Isn't this why we have a military-- to ensure U.S. interests and to protect our resources? Why do we need the UN's permission to do any of these things?

[hedgetrimmer]

The same reason we have "homeland" security instead of national security. Nations may not protect their interests, that threatens the UN. But homelands are ok, because they balkanize nations.

For example, the United States is one nation of 50 states with the full protection of the US Constitution.

But, in the UN view, the United states is a collection of "homelands", with the population based on ethnicity. So the southwest is an hispanic homeland. Homelands cross state borders and become "states within states" degrading our Constitution and our representative government. The UN prefers homelands instead of nations, and then convinces people that it will help you protect your "homeland" if you get into "trouble".

The Congress and President have been giving the UN more and more power over we the people. The FTAA scheduled to be implemented next year is also a UN project.

"Iceberg, you idiots!"

" like a mouse on the Titanic shouting 'iceberg' while the band plays and the people party."

The band is still playing and the people continue to revel in their ignorance.

I was ignorant of LOST until today, I confess.

With the passage of time, United Nations involvement with the law of the sea is expected to expand as awareness increases that not only ocean problems but also global problems as a whole are interrelated.

Thank God your eyes have opened. Now you must help others to see.
