Holocaust Remembrance Day: Schuman’s warning of the Nazi extermination of the Jews. How it led to Europe’s Convention of Human Rights and the supranational Community.

Posted by David on 26/01/10

After Robert Schuman’s warning of the Nazi destruction of the Jews,
Why did those who were warned not act?
August 1942
“The Jews are being systematically destroyed. There are no more Jews in the Ukraine. Men, women and children have been separated and taken. Men and women have been transported to concentration camps. Often they are sent [...]

Cyprus1: Europe’s shameful abandonment of democratic principles has led to the Cyprus membership mess that has now to be solved

Posted by David on 21/01/10

Intensive talks on the unity of Cyprus are underway again. At the eastern end of the Mediterranean, the island of Cyprus presents an enigma to other Europeans. Firstly it is a witness against today’s politicians in Brussels and elsewhere. Why could they too not make war ‘not only unthinkable but materially impossible’ — as Robert [...]

Truth4 : Supranational Democracy is undergoing trial by fire AGAIN — this time by a party oligarchy. The Commission offers a soothing pot of poisons to explain away the Lisbon Treaty’s coming nightmare.

Posted by David on 03/12/09

The European Commission has published a Press Memo called: Explaining the Treaty of Lisbon. Read it carefully as if you were enjoying a cup of tea — but treat it as if someone might have put lumps of poison in it. Remember these are the people who for several decades hid and denied the [...]

Truth2: Would the Founding Fathers be shocked by the fall of the Berlin Wall and the re-unification of Germany? Not at all. They planned for it!

Posted by David on 09/11/09

In 1989 leaders of the European Community were shocked and worried about what they considered the dangerous consequences of the fall of the Berlin Wall. German unity was inevitable.
Some tried to block it. Others warned of a German Reich. Germany had been at the origin of three wars in a century: the Franco-Prussian war and [...]

TRUTH 1: When is the Commission going to tell the truth?

Posted by David on 14/10/09

For the last several decades the European Commission has been telling whoppers, fibs and lies. At the time of writing, it is still doing so. A disinformation campaign has cost Europeans millions of euros. In total the losses to the European economy must amount to billions, possibly trillions. They began in the Gaullist period. [...]

Commission Debate 11: Council Presidency admits: ‘We’ve made a U-turn’ on European principles of democracy

Posted by David on 30/06/09

A Council protocol will aim to completely reverse the basic rule of European democracy defended passionately and with courage over decades by such European democrats as Robert Schuman, Paul-Henri Spaak and Joseph Luns. Many Commissioners in the past also fought an unequal battle to maintain democratic values against the return to raw, bare-knuckle, power politics. [...]

Commission Debate 10: Proof that the Founding Fathers excluded national political representatives from being Commissioners

Posted by David on 19/06/09

According to the law of the jungle, powerful beasts dominate and exploit the weak and unprotected. It is the law of Europe’s history over centuries. The only viable and successful alternative so far tried is the remarkable supranational innovation of Community democracy. It protected the weak, reconciled former enemies and laid the foundation for a [...]

Commission Debate 8: When France said NON to Ireland, democracy, and a European energy policy — a WARNING today about political oligarchy!

Posted by David on 14/05/09

In October 1957 the Council of Ministers asked the High Authority to prepare a general Energy policy for Europe. Why? because Europe was becoming more and more dependent on Middle East oil and this was a highly unstable area. The High Authority was equivalent of today’s Commission in Europe’s founding and pioneering European Community for [...]

Commission Debate 7: Only a disreputable Commission refuses to signal the major rejection of Europe’s founding fathers!

Posted by David on 03/05/09

The Constitutional Treaty and the Lisbon Treaty have one thing in common: both want to make the most destructive inroads to the independence of the Commission as a whole, and of the independence of the Commissioners in particular. This is a disgraceful betrayal of European democracy and the principles of Community.
All the previous treaties say [...]

Danger! Avalanche of dollars! Or how you should love, not beggar your neighbour!

Posted by David on 25/03/09

Get ready for a new crisis — the transatlantic monetary avalanche. This will be the result of President Barak Hussein Obama’s policy of pouring some 4.5 Trillion dollars into the US system. The aim is to buy out toxic assets created by toxic financiers and decades of toxic government policy.
The problem is that it is [...]
