SENATE COMMITTEE PASSES TREATY
US-UK Extradition Treaty Passes Hearings, Goes to Senate
Thursday September 7, 2006
The US Senate Foreign Relations Committee has just unanimously PASSED
the US-UK Extradition Treaty on to the full Senate for debate and a
vote.
EVERY
SENATOR on the SFRC Committee uniformly let their supporters down by
not opposing this dangerous and un-American treaty.
Our FIGHT must now take a new direction as this treaty goes on to the
full Senate. Every US voter must be aware of the dangers of allowing
this treaty to pass into US law. This treaty will totally destroy the
right to US citizens of judicial review and a fair trial, and will allow
a foreign nation, Britain, the right to exercise its own tainted brand
of judicial rule here in the United States.
As Irish American activists we are well aware of Britain’s tainted
brand of justice; with its long record of forensics doctoring, paid
witnesses, security forces collusion with paramilitaries, extra-judicial
execution, torture and willful medical neglect of prisoners, mass
internment, and multiple instances of decades-long wrongful imprisonment
of innocents.
Do Americans want this kind of IN-JUSTICE for our citizens; is this the
law of the land we want to see enacted by our elected Senate?
If you haven’t made the calls yet, do so TODAY. Call your US Senator,
whoever she/he may be, and ask that they STOP this Treaty from going any
further!!
