UN Arms Trade Treaty a Sinister Gun Control Ploy

UN Conference on the Arms Trade Treaty
2-27 July 2012 New York

The Arms Trade Treaty (ATT) Conference is convening at United Nations
Headquarters in New York on 2 – 27 July 2012. Negotiations will be conducted “to
elaborate a legally binding instrument on the highest possible common
international standards for the transfer of conventional arms.” Its stated
objective is to regulate arms trade to the greatest degree possible; its sinister
true purpose is global gun bans, and the disarmament of free peoples!

DO NOT LET OBAMA DISARM THE UNITED STATES!

This instrument will be under U.N. control, carried out by the 193 Member States
of the U.N. In addition, hundreds of representatives from NGOs (non-governmental
organizations), public interest groups, the arms industry, media and
inter-governmental organizations will attend.

The bleeding heart, anti-gun, disarmament propaganda is rife:

“From 2-27 July, all countries of the world will come together in New York to
negotiate what is seen as the most important initiative ever regarding
conventional arms regulation within the United Nations. A robust arms trade
treaty can make a difference for millions of people confronted with insecurity,
deprivation and fear.”

Indeed, the entire enterprise of ostensible U.N. small arms “regulation” actually
runs under the auspices of UNODA, the United Nations Office for Disarmament
Affairs╜

But surely you were in no confusion about the real agenda behind the ATT, the
U.N. Small Arms Treaty, and the vital and urgent necessity to SHUT DOWN Obama
Administration promotion of United States ratification of this
coming-like-a-freight-train disarmament treaty?

STOP THE ASSAULT ON OUR SECOND AMENDMENT BY THE UN!
BLAST FAX CONGRESS TO PROTECT OUR RIGHT TO BEAR ARMS!
DO NOT LET OBAMA DISARM THE UNITED STATES!

If you WERE, here’s news. UNODA just released their press kit for the ATT
conference, and it is a doozy. Included is a lengthy paper by the U.N.’s
Coordinating Action on Small Arms (CASA) program entitled “The Impact of Poorly
Regulated Arms Transfers on the Work of the U.N.”

This paper claims, as does the ATT itself, that the big problem with “arms
violence” the world faces is a lack of agreed standards on arms transfers.
Nonsense, of course: The big problem the world faces in this regard is that many
U.N. member states are despotisms, dictatorships, supporters of terrorists, or
simply incapable of controlling their own borders.

But the CASA paper insists that the job of the U.N. is to make the case for a
very broad treaty. As CASA puts it, “Advocacy efforts should be
developedâ•œthrough relevant reports and op-eds, messages, and statements at
relevant meetings and to the press.” Here comes the U.S. taxpayer-funded U.N.
propaganda!

Ominously, the ATT repeatedly ALSO signals that “the problem” is as much lawful
ownership as it is the international arms trade. And although the U.N. keeps
protesting on the one hand that it “does not aim to impede or interfere with the
lawful ownership and use of weapons” within member states, this CASA paper
bluntly states that “United Nations agencies have come across many situations in
which various types of conventional weapons have beenâ•œmisused by lawful owners”
and that the “arms trade must therefore be regulated in ways that
wouldâ•œminimize the risk of misuse of legally owned weapons.”

And just how, pray tell, would the ATT do that if it doesn’t “impede” or
“interfere” with lawful ownership? Clearly, those negotiating the U.N. Gun Treaty
aren’t just concerned with lawful ownership; they are also campaigning against
“community attitudes” that “contribute to the powerful cultural conditioning that
equates masculinity with owning and using a gun, and regards gun misuse by men as
acceptable.”

All this just further confirms that the U.N. regards gun ownership – even under
national constitutional protection and for lawful activities – as a dangerous
cultural failure that it needs to redress under global governance, by
international treaty that trumps our U.S. Constitution. The ATT will NOT abide
the principle that self-defense is an inherent right, and our Second Amendment
guarantees ARE DEEPLY IMPERILED BY THE U.N. GUN TREATY!

This strong emerging evidence further proves that the ostensible objectives of
the U.N. Small Arms Treaty are mere camouflage, and the real purpose IS stealth
gun control to gut our Second Amendment rights! STOP Obama from wasting millions
of American tax dollars on negotiations to empower gun-grabbing globalists!

And according to additional analysis by the Heritage Foundation, if passed the
U.N. Gun Treaty, officially titled the U.N. Arms Trade Treaty (ATT) WILL INCREASE
THE THREAT OF ARMED TERRORISM despite its proclaimed purpose to reduce the
ability of terrorists to acquire weapons!

While the United Nations’ ATT has never focused exclusively on terrorism (after
all, they want to grab YOUR guns more than anything else), terrorism is among the
most often cited justifications for negotiating this international civilian
disarmament.

Take the U.N. General Assembly’s Resolution 64/48, adopted on January 12, 2010,
for example. It states that: “problems relating to the unregulated trade in
conventional weapons╜ can fuel instability, transnational organized crime and
terrorism.” Then on April 16 of this year, Assistant Secretary of State Thomas
Countryman said that an ATT would “help prevent the acquisition of arms by
terrorists and criminals.”

Sounds nice, doesn’t it? Well, don’t be fooled. This is just part of a SHAM to
pull the wool over YOUR eyes and the eyes of every other legal gun owner in
America.

Not only has the blithering United Nations never defined terrorism â•„ but a
definition of terrorism wouldn’t matter anyway, Heritage Foundation analysis
reveals. “The ATT cannot prevent nations from arming terrorists if nations do not
agree on who the terrorists are, or on what constitutes terrorism.”
YOU READ THAT RIGHT! The United Nations Arms Trade Treaty is so feckless and
phony, it fails to identify terrorism, or even try to define it, never mind
commit to its prevention! The ATT’s alleged purpose is a SHAM, A FRONT TO GRAB
YOUR GUNS â•„ NOT STOP TERRORISM!

Let’s not forget, insofar as the dysfunctional U.N. is capable of ANY meaningful
efforts, the Security Council has already “addressed” this issue!

Despite its pathetic, moral-relativist inability to agree on a definition of
terrorism â•„ in the aftermath of 9/11, U.N. Security Council Resolution 1373
passed unanimously on September 8, 2001 requiring ALL U.N. members to “take
action against terrorism,” including “eliminating the supply of weapons to
terrorists.”

The Security Council, which supposedly exists to maintain international peace and
security, even has the authority to back up its resolutions using armed force â•„
unlike the ATT, which will be based on national implementation with no means of
enforcement whatsoever.

So, what possible need is there for yet another U.N. initiative on such
contentious matters (“one government’s terrorist is another government’s freedom
fighter”)? Why bother with the upcoming negotiations at a conference to be held
July 2-27 in New York? Why chance increasing the risk of armed terrorism?
â•œBecause the U.N. Arms Trade Treaty isn’t about terrorism at all.

It’s about disarming civilians like you.
