    UN to Intervene in Detroit Water Crisis

    Oh jeeze now the UN is now formally embedded with the FSA... Best way I can sum this up is to reference this quote from Ol' Remus ( http://www.woodpilereport.com/html/index-376.htm ):

    "Urban water service is a need not a right, basic, human or otherwise. Rights don't create duties for others. No one has a right to compel others to build and maintain a water system for them, at all, much less for free."



    The article and some snippets to irritate you so close to "Independence Day" and all...

    UN to Intervene in Detroit Water Crisis
    http://www.wnd.com/2014/06/u-n-to-in...ater-shutoffs/

    "WND has learned that after issuing a statement last week condemning Detroit’s decision to send water shut-off notices to tens of thousands of customers behind in their payments, the U.N now plans to conduct confidential policy discussions with the Obama administration to be followed by a formal public report to the U.N. Human Rights Council.

    On Monday, the U.N. Human Rights Council’s office in Geneva confirmed to WND that the U.N. plans to intervene directly in the Detroit water crisis, determined to apply international law to judge the U.S. in violation of human rights to safe water."



    “What we see is a violation of the human right to water,” Meera Karunananthan, an international campaigner with the Blue Planet Project, explained to Al Jazeera America on the submission of the report to the U.N.

    You would be quite surprised what is in the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Univers...f_Human_Rights

    The UN has actually made it "international law", and it's baffling how anyone could take it seriously.

    Look closely, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Haiti, Cuba, Iran, Iraq, and Egypt have voted in favor of it.

    You can't cut water off in Detroit, it will be '67 riots all over again.

    And, in the real world, how does this have any actual impact on the situation?

    How soon before we are at war for water instead of oil?
    If you can't win a gun fight against a lightly-trained individual during broad daylight with 88 rounds of 30-06, I'm not sure you'd be able to do it with... any other firearm.

    Ok, I've got an El Camino full of rampage here, so what's the plan?

    For a truly sovereign nation - anything outsiders say means squat.

    Just another obvious attempt for the UN to circumvent our Constitution in lieu of "World (read Socialist) needs". UN Small Arms Treaty comes to mind.

    How long until the UN decides to issue another declaration of "intervention" in the "Central American Refugee Crisis" in the border lands?

    Nothing to see here (cough... Agenda 21?). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agenda_21

    Your question is accurate and IS only a matter of time. Thanks for the link. I wasn't aware LV was in that bad of a situation.

    I remember a documentary covering your exact question. I think was called "Water Wars" or such.

    Detroit has a water crisis?? News to me... I figured most of those houses with the water being cut-off were abandoned anyway.
