National Sovereignty vs European Union

ꕤ Article SOURCE http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/1489643/Vote-for-EU-constitution-or-risk-new-Holocaust-says-Brussels.html Vote for EU constitution or risk new Holocaust, says Brussels By David Rennie in Brussels 12:05AM BST 09 May 2005   A senior European Commissioner marked VE Day yesterday by accusing Eurosceptics of risking a return to the Holocaust by clinging to "nationalistic pride". Margot Wallstrom, a Swede and the commissioner who must sell the draft constitution to voters, argued that politicians who resisted pooling national sovereignty risked a return to Nazi horrors of the 1930s and 1940s. Mrs Wallstrom, vice-president of the commission for institutional relations and communications, was speaking in the former Jewish ghetto of Terezin in the Czech Republic. She blamed the Second World War on "nationalistic pride and greed, and … international rivalry for wealth and power". The EU had replaced such rivalry with an historic agreement to share national sovereignty. Her fellow commissioners also issued a joint declaration, stating that EU citizens should pay tribute to the dead of the Second World War by voting Yes to the draft constitution for Europe. The commissioners also gave the EU sole credit for ending the Cold War, making no mention of the role of Nato and the United States. Richard Shepherd, the Tory MP for Aldridge-Brownhills, said it was "breathtaking" to link Nazism to the defence of national sovereignty. "It's a monstrous rewriting of history to promote a profoundly undemocratic project." http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/1489643/Vote-for-EU-constitution-or-risk-new-Holocaust-says-Brussels.html ---------------------- ꕤ ---------------------- COMMENT Blast from the past:  2005. Check out the US puppet No. 1, Sweden and the propaganda: Pay tribute to the dead:  Vote YES! But the dead didn't die in vain, so that their nations would be usurped by supranational bodies and corporate interests. Meanwhile, the US refuse to stand by the 1998 Rome Statute (re war crimes, genocide etc) because it means avoiding prosecution for war crimes ... so the US uses the argument that to be party to the Rome Statute is an assignment of national sovereignty contrary to the US Constitution, or something like that. And here's US puppet Sweden using preposterous emotionally manipulative propaganda and alluding to promises of some non-competitive and eternally peaceful 'European' nirvana, to urge sovereign nations to "share national sovereignty." It doesn't matter who voted for this or which politicians agreed:  national sovereignty cannot be assigned and these agreements are void, in my opinion.  lol Stand up, Europe. Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe (TCE) (commonly referred to as the European Constitution or as the Constitutional Treaty) Would have replaced the existing European Union treaties with a single text establishing:  Charter of Fundamental Rights Qualified Majority Voting into policy areas which are decided by unanimity among member states  [ ** I'm not following what is ultimately in effect https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treaty_establishing_a_Constitution_for_Europe ꕤ
