Britains upcoming Summer of Rage could end in a Nazi death camp. - Damien Lloyd - 09-03-2009
Ok, now that I have your attention, look at what I just found:
Professor Schachtschneide pointed out that it [the European Union reform treaty, a.k.a. the Lisbon Treaty] also reintroduces the death penalty in Europe, which I think is very important, in light of the fact that, especially Italy was trying to abandon the death penalty through the United Nations, forever.
And this is not in the treaty, but in a footnote, because with the European Union reform treaty, we accept also the European Union Charter, which says that there is no death penalty, and then it also has a footnote, which says, “except in the case of war, riots, upheaval” – then the death penalty is possible.
Schachtschneider points to the fact that this is an outrage, because they put it in a footnote of a footnote

That just scared the hell out of me. If it's been posted already, sorry I missed it.

Damien - this is a LaRouche source. I went to the link and couldn't find the actual clause the article refers to.
If you find the actual clause - "the footnote of the footnote" - please can you post it in this thread.
Thank you.

Thank you so much for this important post Damien. This is of vital interest and yet this is the first I have heard of it. Just goes to show how totally reactionary the political direction is going in. This needs to be publicised far and wide.
Also, thank you Damien for your previous post about no longer being able to photograph police. Another secretive and reactionary move. Criminals don't like to be observed in the midst of a crime

Oh, and thanks for making me do a bit of research Jan. I could have convinced myself it was the ravings of a paranoid head case and slept soundly.
NOW I'M REALLY SCARED :p

Damien - thank you.
So, it seems to come down due to a state's interpretation of "time of war or of imminent threat of war".
Unfortunately, that has to be viewed in the context of the Bush regime's decision to create, post-9/11, a new class of "enemy combatant" to enable it to avoid the Geneva Convention.
All They need is to appoint an entirely pliant and unscrupulous Attorny General and legal protection becomes irrelevant.
Ho hum.

Like the class war. Any one that threatens profits and unbridled exploitation of people and planet.

Sorry guys, it was a false alarm. I can sleep soundly again without the need to imagine someone is more of a paranoid headcase than myself.
What follows is the 13th Protocol which became law in the UK on 1 February 2004 and forbids the death penalty under all circumstances (I think).

Ha! I'd still be checking under the bed (or in the fine print) if I were you Damien. Sleep well :afraid: :goodnight:
Britains upcoming Summer of Rage could end in a Nazi death camp. - Peter Lemkin - 10-03-2009
While all you non-Americans look at the fine print [with good cause] the killing machine in the USA, China and other nations goes on unabated! Sadly, most Americans are in favor [after the Propaganda line they've been fed all their lives] of the death penalty. Recent studies have shown than up to half or more of those so killed are really innocent and I'm against the death penalty even for those guilty. I think I make one exception: intentional genocide or mass murder, torture to death etc. In that situation, I waiver....
