Good Nations also Must Comply to the ‘Responsibility to Protect’

This WND article is about NATO and Turkey invading Syria with the blessing of the U.N. to end Assad's tyranny against his own citizens. Sounds great!

There is a "but". The theme for the attack is a Left Wing strategic doctrine: "Responsibility to Protect OR to Act". Apparently it is a Soros based doctrine and Obama is all for it.

Responsibility to Protect, or Responsibility to Act, as cited by Obama, is a set of principles, now backed by the United Nations, based on the idea that sovereignty is not a privilege but a responsibility that can be revoked if a country is accused of “war crimes,” “genocide,” “crimes against humanity” or “ethnic cleansing.”

The Global Centre for Responsibility to Protect is the world’s leading champion of the military doctrine. Billionaire activist George Soros is a primary funder and key proponent of the Global Centre for Responsibility to Protect. Several of the doctrine’s main founders also sit on boards with Soros.

The article is about using force to make nations comply with a greater authority of responsible sovereignty. WND focuses on the NWO aspect. The article written by Aaron Klein should have included also what this strategy might imply for Israel, Palestine and Bush using the U.S. military with Congressional OK but not with a Congressional Declaration of War.

The NWO thing is significant on a global scale pertaining to Free Speech, Religious Freedom, Property Rights, and the freedoms guaranteed in the U.S. Constitution that is absent or watered down in other Western nations. This you can read about this in the Klein article.

Frankly I thought it was a great thing to bring down psycho-terrorist supporting Moamar Qaddafi. It was a rare occasion of brilliance by Obama to utilize NATO as the brunt of the support for the Libyan rebels while keeping significant American troops off the ground. However, using the doctrine of Responsibility to Protect as the justification opens the door to an irresponsible use. For example Israel is often accused of being an apartheid State by Western Leftists (particularly in Europe) and Muslim nations might be an excuse for an Arab sympathetic American government to use military power to force Israel accept a Palestinian State that would have the constitutional preamble of destroying Israel and killing Jews.

Of course no American President would have the guts to say that the existence of a Palestinian State would have a purpose of destroying Israel and killing Jews; nonetheless the reality of the existence of an Arab nation called Palestine will evolve into an existential threat to the existence of the Jewish State of Israel.

Israel is again facing a situation in which the land is surrounded with openly hostile Muslim forces. The new Egypt is beginning to the line of Jew-hatred and anti-Israel animosity toward Israel. Lebanon has ceased to be a Christian jewel of acceptance among Muslim nations or from Lebanese Muslims. Hezbollah controls the reins of power in Lebanon. Hezbollah has a throw the Jews into the sea mentality. Syria has had a hate Israel thing since their existence and particularly under the rule of the Assad family. The only nation bordering Israel that may or may not contribute to the demise of Israel is Jordan. There is no love from Jordanians for Israel; however the Jordanian Monarchy has an ingrained distrust for Arabs that call themselves Palestinians because they have no commitment to the Monarchy which is supported by Jordanian Bedouins. In Jordan itself Palestinian-Arabs outnumber Bedouin-Arabs. Arabs that are descendants of the refugees caused by invading Arab armies are treated as second class citizens in Jordan to assure they do not the political power to toss out the Hashemite Monarchy of Jordan.

I can see the doctrine of Responsibility to Protect as a ploy to force Israel to 1967 borders which include pilfering the eastern half of Jerusalem which is a Jewish city founded by the ancient Jewish King David. It is the Star of David that is on the Israeli flag. This Power to Protect could be an excuse for Obama to take a step back as European nations and perhaps various Muslim nations such as Turkey and Egypt to cause the Third Diaspora removing Jews from their heritage.

I don’t like it. Do you?
