Both the US and UK in the 21st century have gone to numerous wars illegally under the Nuremberg
Standard established by the US and UK following Germany’s defeat in WWII and used to execute
Germans for war crimes. The US and UK claim that unlike Germany they are immune to the very
international law that they themselves established in order to punish the defeated Germans. Washington
and London can bomb and murder at will, but not Germany.
Both governments illegally and unconstitutionally (the UK Constitution is unwritten) spy on their
citizens, and the Bush and Obama executive branches have eviscerated, with the complicity of Congress
and the federal courts, the entirely of the US Constitution except for the Second Amendment, which is
protected by the strong lobby of the National Rifle Association. If the gun control “progressives” have
their way, nothing will be left of the US Constitution.
Washington and its European satellites have subordinated law to a political and economic hegemonic
agenda. Just as under the heyday of colonialism when the West looted the non-white world, today the
West loots its own. Greece is being looted as was Ireland, and Italy and Spain will not escape looting
unless they renege on their debts and leave the EU.
Western capitalism is a looting mechanism. It loots labor. It loots the environment, and with the
transpacific and transatlantic “partnerships” it will loot the sovereign law of countries. For example,
France’s laws against GMOs become “restraints on trade” and subjects France to punitive law suits by
Monsanto. If France doesn’t pay Monsanto the damages Monsanto claims, France is subject to punitive
sanctions like Washington applies to Russia when Russia doesn’t do what Washington wants.
A new slave existence is being created in front of our eyes as law ceases to be a shield of peoples and
becomes a weapon in the hands of government. Eight hundred years of reform is being overturned as
Washington and its vassals invade, bomb, and overthrow governments that are out of step with
Washington’s agenda. Formerly self-sufficient agricultural communities are becoming wage slaves for
international agribusiness corporations. Everywhere privilege is rising above law and justice is being lost.
The concentration of wealth and power is reminiscent of the aristocratic era and of Rome under the
Caesars. The demise of the rule of law has stripped ordinary people of security and dignity. Peoples of the
world must protect themselves by acting in defense of the Great Charter’s principle that governments are
accountable to law. Governments unaccountable to law are tyrannies whatever they might call themselves, no matter how exceptional and indispensa
