I was reading many articles today, as I usually do during my networking time. One article intrigued me. The subject has been a fascination of mine for quite some time, so I thought I'd share some of its information and expound a bit.
Choose for yourself whether you agree or disagree, but first follow the links and read the material. The links I provide are only the tip of the iceberg, so to speak. There is a lot more I could put into this blog tonight, however, I think that this should be enough to get you thinking about the puzzle.
August Review Article"The global elite, through the direct operations of President George Bush and his Administration, are creating a North American Union that will combine Canada, Mexico and the U.S. into a superstate called the North American Union (NAU). The NAU is roughly patterned after the European Union (EU). There is no political or economic mandate for creating the NAU, and unofficial polls of a cross-section of Americans indicate that they are overwhelmingly against this end-run around national sovereignty."
You may be just going along, living your life, and look at this and think that there is no way that this could possibly be for real. Many people might prefer not to know many things that may be this serious in nature. If you read further, however, you may not completely disagree with the above mentioned case-scenario(although, it has been going on...as you will find from reading the complete August Review article...for a lot longer than the Bush administration).
"Modern day globalization was launched with the creation of the Trilateral Commission in 1973 by David Rockefeller and Zbigniew Brzezinski. Its membership consisted of just over 300 powerful elitists from North America, Europe and Japan. The clearly stated goal of the Trilateral Commission was to foster a "New International Economic Order" that would supplant the historical economic order."
So, you may want to know a little about the Trilateral Commission.
The link to the Trilateral Commission site is here.
Trilateral CommissionEmail them to receive a complete list of their members.
They state that...
"To help preserve the Commission’s unofficial character, members who take up positions in their national administration give up Trilateral Commission membership. New members are chosen on a national basis. The procedures used for rotation off and for invitation of new members vary from national group to national group. Three chairmen (one from each region), deputy chairmen, and directors constitute the leadership of the Trilateral Commission, along with an Executive Committee including 36 other members."
...which would mean that there would not be someone "active" on the commission who is currently serving in our administration. That doesn't mean that they weren't active members before and won't be active members after.

Task Report # 58
"Much of my essay reflects an awareness of these differences and a corresponding effort to prescribe ways for the United States to realign itself with its major allies while still recognizing and pursuing its core interests. However, I also identify anti-Americanism as an "ism," like communism or fascism, that is gaining its own momentum as an ideology that radically oversimplifies a dichotomy between what America is presumed to be and what traditional culture, religion, and power structures are proclaimed to have been. This kind of anti-Americanism empowers populist demagogues in many societies and makes it increasingly difficult for governments that wish to work with the United States to do so. It is particularly dangerous in a world in which non-state actors can both complement and combat states."
Task Report # 57
"Let me start with three definitions, since we can confuse ourselves if we are not clear about what we are talking about: globalization, governance, and democracy. By "globalization" I mean simply interdependence at intercontinental distances, and that distinguishes it from regionalism or localism. Essentially, it's interdependence on a worldwide basis. By "governance" I mean the pattern of ways in which we manage our common affairs. Governments are a subset of governance, but they are not the only way we govern collective affairs. By "democracy" I mean a situation where leaders are accountable and ultimately removable by a majority of the people."

To me, reading through the meeting notes that are available for the Trilateral Commission sheds new light on the seriousness of this subject. What do you think about this information?
Now, back to the August Review article...
Click Here"May, 2005, in a paper titled "Building a North American Community" and subtitled "Report of the Independent Task Force on the Future of North America." Even the sub-title suggests that the "future of North America" is a fait accompli decided behind closed doors.
Some of the recommendations of the task force are:
"Adopt a common external tariff."
"Adopt a North American Approach to Regulation"
"Establish a common security perimeter by 2010."
"Establish a North American investment fund for infrastructure and human capital."
"Establish a permanent tribunal for North American dispute resolution."
"An annual North American Summit meeting" that would bring the heads-of-state together for the sake of public display of confidence.
"Establish minister-led working groups that will be required to report back within 90 days, and to meet regularly."
Create a "North American Advisory Council"
Create a "North American Inter-Parliamentary Group."16
Sound familiar? It should: Many of the recommendations are verbatim from Pastor's "modest" presentation to the Trilateral Commission mentioned above, or from his earlier book, Toward a North American Union."
Here is a link to that paper..
Building A North American Community"The Task Force offers a detailed and ambitious set of proposals that build on the recommendations adopted by the three governments at the Texas summit of March 2005. The Task Force’s central recommendation is establishment by 2010 of a North American economic and security community, the boundaries of which would be defined by a common external tariff, and an outer security perimeter."
Interesting, huh? There really
is such a paper.
Where is your opinion now? Are you thinking that maybe the idea isn't quite so "out there"?
Let's return to the August Review article...

SPP Summit in Cancun Shortly after the task force report was issued, the heads of all three countries did indeed meet together for a summit in Waco, Texas on March 23, 2005. The specific result of the summit was the creation of the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America (SPPNA). The joint press release stated...
"We, the elected leaders of Canada, Mexico, and the United States, have met in Texas to announce the establishment of the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America.
"We will establish working parties led by our ministers and secretaries that will consult with stakeholders in our respective countries. These working parties will respond to the priorities of our people and our businesses, and will set specific, measurable, and achievable goals. They will outline concrete steps that our governments can take to meet these goals, and set dates that will ensure the continuous achievement of results.
"Within 90 days, ministers will present their initial report after which, the working parties will submit six-monthly reports. Because the Partnership will be an ongoing process of cooperation, new items will be added to the work agenda by mutual agreement as circumstances warrant."
Here's a link to the SPP's Site.
Security and Prosperity Partnership of North AmericaI encourage you to read the information on the site to judge it's validity for yourself, however, here are some of the items listed in the Myth/Fact area of the site that I found of interest.
"Myth: The SPP is a movement to merge the United States, Mexico, and Canada into a North American Union and establish a common currency."
"Fact: The cooperative efforts under the SPP, which can be found in detail at www.spp.gov, seek to make the United States, Canada and Mexico open to legitimate trade and closed to terrorism and crime. It does not change our courts or legislative processes and respects the sovereignty of the United States, Mexico, and Canada. The SPP in no way, shape or form considers the creation of a European Union-like structure or a common currency. The SPP does not attempt to modify our sovereignty or currency or change the American system of government designed by our Founding Fathers."
"Myth: The U.S. Government, working though the SPP, has a secret plan to build a "NAFTA Super Highway."
"Fact: The U.S. government is not planning a NAFTA Super Highway. The U.S. government does not have the authority to designate any highway as a NAFTA Super Highway, nor has it sought such authority, nor is it planning to seek such authority. There are private and state level interests planning highway projects which they themselves describe as "NAFTA Corridors," but these are not Federally-driven initiatives, and they are not a part of the SPP."
Back to August Review again...
August Review"Where from here?
"The stated target for full implementation of the North American Union is 2010.
"The Task Force proposes the creation by 2010 of a North American community to enhance security, prosperity, and opportunity. We propose a community based on the principle affirmed in the March 2005 Joint Statement of the three leaders that 'our security and prosperity are mutually dependent and complementary.' Its boundaries will be defined by a common external tariff and an outer security perimeter within which the movement of people, products, and capital will be legal, orderly, and safe. Its goal will be to guarantee a free, secure, just, and prosperous North America."
Don't underestimate the global elite's ability to meet their own deadlines!"
Review the deadlines in the "Task Force" paper. They are very determined to meet those deadlines and they will find ways to do so.
Here are some other organizations and information that are pertinent resources for this subject.
CIDAC "NAFTA: Lessons from Mexico to Central America" World Trade Organization GATT BIS IMF CFRThere is so much more information that I could provide, however, unless you would like to leave comments with particular questions that I may respond to with exact information, I believe that this, along with the links I've provided, give enough for a basic understanding of what is formulating in the international community.
You must draw your own conclusions based on your own reality and based upon your own interpretation of this material.
What do you think about this subject? Do you think this is a conspiracy theory or reality? Don't you want to know which, if any, of the candidates for the 2008 elections have affiliated themselves with these proceedings, i.e., are, or were they ever, a member of the Trilateral Commission?
