UN Gun Grab Follows State Department Plan
“Complete disarmament” of the American people

The UN Arms Trade Treaty that has been identified by observers as a flagrant threat to the second amendment and which Barack Obama is determined to sign has its roots in a 1961 State Department memorandum which explains how the United Nations will oversee “complete disarmament” of the American people under the ruse of preventing war.
The UN Arms Treaty has caused so much controversy because it outlines a plan to target “all types of conventional weapons, notably including small arms and light weapons,” according to Forbes’ Larry Bell.
Former US Ambassador to the UN John Bolton also warns that the agreement “is trying to act as though this is really just a treaty about international arms trade between nation states, but there is no doubt that the real agenda here is domestic firearms control.”
A letter sent last month by 130 Republican House members to President Obama argued that the treaty should be rejected because it infringes on the “fundamental, individual right to keep and bear arms”. The letter adds that “…the U.N.’s actions to date indicate that the ATT is likely to pose significant threats to our national security, foreign policy, and economic interests as well as our constitutional rights.”
Using the rhetoric of the threat post by terrorists, insurgents and “international crime syndicates,” the UN is busy trying to imply that all weapons are somehow involved in illegal activity on a global scale and should therefore be controlled and regulated by a global authority.
This is precisely the same language used in a 1961 U.S. State Department briefing which outlined a long term agenda to carry out a “Program for General and Complete Disarmament in a Peaceful World.”
Invoking the threat of nuclear warfare, the document spells out a plan to create a “United Nations Peace Force” that would “enforce the peace as the disarmament process proceeds.”
While the document initially focuses on scrapping nuclear weapons, it later makes it clear that the only groups allowed to own weapons of any kind would be governing authorities, “for the purpose of maintaining internal order,” and the UN “peacekeeping” force itself, which would require “agreed manpower.”
“The manufacture of armaments would be prohibited except for those of agreed types and quantities to be used by the U.N. Peace Force and those required to maintain internal order. All other armaments would be destroyed or converted to peaceful purposes,” states the document.
While the memorandum outlines a broader mandate to destroy national sovereignty, eviscerate national armies and institute the UN as the planet’s supreme authority with a world army, the document serves as a stark reminder that the plan for the United Nations to oversee the abolition of the second amendment has been in the works for decades.
As Bell points out in his Forbes article, the threat of the Obama administration relying on a UN treaty to do what successive administrations have tried but failed to accomplish – taking a huge bite out of the second amendment – is by no means far fetched.
After all, a plethora of UN treaties and international agreements have already stripped the United States of its sovereignty and its power to decide its own laws. The power to authorize U.S. involvement in wars and conflicts has now been almost completely stripped from Congress and handed to the United Nations.
Following Barack Obama’s arrogant rebuff of Congress in seeking approval to strike Libya, during which he churlishly remarked, “I don’t even have to get to the Constitutional question,” Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta affirmed that the U.S. now requires “international permission” before deciding on its military policy.
Other Obama-endorsed UN power grabs like the Law of the Sea Treaty (LOST) as well as Agenda 21 and sustainable development are also serving to decimate national sovereignty and remain almost completely under the radar.
You only need to look at the European Union, which now crafts around 50 per cent of the laws made in member states like Britain, to understand how unelected global institutions can and have dictated policy on a national level.
The UN Arms Trade Treaty presents an existential threat to the guns rights of American citizens and should be rejected for what it is – yet another attempt by the Obama administration, in the aftermath of the Fast and Furious scandal, to abolish the second amendment by stealth.

As the first person in the world to blow the whistle on the UN Codex International Threat to Health Freedom, I have had attempts made on my life for opposing the power of the world's biggest investment industry: Big Pharma. I know that the only thing defending our access to dietary supplements is the second amendment right to bear arms. The FDA fears an armed America, they do not fear an unarmed America. Obama is a communist traitor. His mission is to destroy our country so that the NWO can dominate the planet. He is an ardent globalist, and is being aided and abetted by all manner of other traitors right now including several in the Supreme Court, and all of his "czars", including FDA Commissioner Hamburg who is the daughter of the former President of the American Eugenics Society, and John Holdren, his "science czar" who has openly advocated forced abortions and forced sterilizations. JPFO has documented the impact of gun control world wide on genocide, look at the numbers..... they've crunched that data, and we don't wanna go there.... Obama is trying to collapse the system from inside via deficit spending. The intention is to microchip us all, but they can only "get there" if we don't fight back. There are one hell of a lot more of us than there are of them, but how many of us are prepared for the shit hitting the fan? Most people aren't prepared at all, and we'll be up against Spetnaz troops who have been trained since birth to hate Americans.... of course, they won't like it when they start dying here so far from home....Has the American revolution become a fat lady driving a Cadillac? Something tells me the world is gonna find out sooner rather than later...

You think "they" will pull it off? I think you and they will 'try' to pull it off. integrity and freedom are earned by repelling attackers. I bet you voted for Obama or McCain and you do not have the spine or class to admit you messed up. That is the reality. People who voted for that trash shoved in their faces by the CFRtv do not posess gthe self control to clean up their own messes. My dad roughed me up ONCE for doing that. That was all it took. If you voted for Obama, get your flaky ass out here and help clean up the mess.
