European Council [ EC ]to set the agenda--Oct 14-2002
‘The European Council ( # 3 ) should above all be the body which sets the agenda of the Union. Indeed, formally in the Treaty of Rome, that is the task given to it’.
‘Just as governments go before their electorates and set out their agenda for the coming years, so must the European Council do the same. We need to do it in all the crucial fields of European action: economic, foreign policy, defence, and the fight against cross-border crime. I am proposing today an annual agenda for Europe, set by the European Council,’ Mr. Blair said in Warsaw.

30 Diplomats shape the majority of EU laws ( meet weekly )
Several times a week, the 15 member states' ambassadors and deputy ambassadors meet at the European Council building in central Brussels when they usually take decisions that will have a direct and important impact on European businesses and consumers.

The commission may make proposals and the European Parliament may be proud of its role as a "co-legislator", but unless the Excellencies and deputy Excellencies
[ the European Council ] say so, these proposals will never become law, writes the Financial Times....
you would be foolish to ignore them," the Financial Times writes on the invisible powers behind the EU throne, 30 diplomats who shape the majority of EU laws in weekly meetings behind closed doors.

The CO-REP-ER body
While the press and the business community focus incessantly on the European Commission's latest uttering or national ministers' quarrels, these 'eminences grises' do most of the work that really matters in an obscure body called
the Committee of Permanent Representatives or "Coreper.
" [ co-rep..er ]

The deputies' group is called
Coreper I, whilst the ambassadors go under the title of Coreper II. And although national capitals are in touch with their ambassadors and deputy ambassadors before a Coreper meeting, the diplomats have considerable leeway to take decisions.

CoE to ban Creationism -- Nov. 1, 2007
STRASBOURG, November 1, 2007 (LifeSiteNews.com) - The Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (CoE) has adopted a resolution to ban creationism from receiving any discussion in schools outside of religion classes.  "The Parliamentary Assembly is worried about the possible ill-effects of the spread of creationist ideas within our education systems and about the consequences for our democracies," said the resolution adopted on October 4 by the Parliament made up of 626 members elected from each European Member State.
"If we are not careful, creationism could become a threat to human rights which are a key concern of the Council of Europe," said the resolution.

The statement has raised eyebrows of many in the scientific community who reject strict 'dogmatic' adherence to Darwinian evolution, and find scientific basis for belief in creation or in 'intelligent design' of the universe.

"If we are not careful, the values that are the very essence of the Council of Europe will be under direct threat from creationist fundamentalists," said the resolution. "It is part of the role of the Council's parliamentarians to react before it is too late."

EU : Human Rights vs. Christianity -- July 8, 2007

A recent report drawn up by the Council of Europe, which is the continent's main human rights body, warns strongly of "creationist fundamentalists" and calls them dangerous religious extremists who "could become a threat to human rights"
( "Secularist Europe Silences Pro-Lifers and Creationists," Brusssels Journal, June 23, 2007).
Creationists don't reject science; they reject "science falsely so called" (1 Timothy 6:20).
"O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called:
Which some professing have erred concerning the faith. Grace be with thee" (
1 Timothy 6:20-21).

Belgium law: All hospitals must permit euthanasia -- June 13, 2003
BRUSSELS — The right to euthanasia must exist in all hospitals, negotiators forming Belgium's new government said Friday in a move to counter opposition by some Catholic hospitals that have allegedly refused to permit
assisted suicide
on their premises.
The negotiators, who are forming a government after the 18 May general elections, have laid down that every hospital must have a team of doctors prepared to apply euthanasia, under a strict policy designed to protect patients and their relatives. Euthanasia was made legal, under certain conditions, in Belgium last year.

American Officials granted immunity from Belgium Law -- June 23, 2003
http://www.euobserver.com/index.phtml?aid=11820

Belgium Law: Immunity granted to Foreign Ministers..... June 21, 2003

An "immunity" law for foreign diplomats is now in the making.
The universal competence legislation, which allows foreigners to be tried for human rights violations and war crimes, would be watered down by adjacent legislation providing foreign diplomats attending meetings in Belgium with immunity.
The initiative came after the threat made by US Defence Secretary of State Donald Rumsfeld that the US would like to see NATO headquarters moved away from Belgium.

A number of top US officials, like former US President George Bush (senior), vice president Dick Cheney and secretary of state Colin Powell have all had cases filed against them under this law for their role in first Gulf War.
http://www.euobserver.com/index.phtml?aid=11806

This immunity law was passed during the same week that Berlusconi and his top officials in Italy were granted legal immunities. And it was also the same week that Jean-Claude Trichet was aquitted of banking-fraud charges in France.
Rank certainly has its privileges, and it sure is rank.

European Union to Monitor American Pro- life Groups (anti-abortion) -- June 1-2003

NewsMax.com's religion editor, Fr. Michael Reilly, details the latest efforts by the European Union to help stymie the pro-life movement.

The European Parliament has announced that it will be monitoring American pro-life groups, with EU officials charging that the American pro-life movement has become too influential in the legislative body.
Austin Ruse of the Catholic Family & Human Rights Institute reports that Poul Nielson, European Commissioner for Overseas Development and Humanitarian Aid, has come out against what he describes as a "small group of extremists.


"The US anti-choice groups are powerful, well-funded and determined.
They hold extreme views on religion and sexuality," Nielson complained. (meaning against the sin of homosexuality.
Christians are those who hate the sin and preach forgiveness through Jesus Christ, because of love.)

Europeans should join US Senate and Supreme Court - May 22, 2003
EUOBSERVER / DEBATE - Renewing EU-US relations by increasing political ties is a positive step forward. Having US officials in the Convention however, must be matched by having European officials in the Senate and Supreme Court, says Franck Biancheri, Director of Strategy and Studies of Europe 2020.
As far as I know, the US does not envisage in the near future, any updates to its 200 year-old constitution, rooted in the European ideas of the XVIIIth century.
So what solution can be found on the US side
to allow European top officials to join the US's essential law making processes?
Perhaps a European presence into the US Senate? Or a European judge in the US Supreme Court?

But it also asks for true innovation. American and European futures are now on divergent paths. It is only by building common projects and developing interaction of a new kind between the two societies (on the political level indeed, but seen from the side of civil societies rather than from the side of those top-leaders who were unable to prevent the rift), that Transatlantic partnership can have a constructive input into the 21st century.

Most significant transatlantic law firm merger ever
Jones Day’s tie-up with Gouldens is considered the most significant transatlantic merger in the legal industry since a 2000 deal made Clifford Chance the world’s biggest law firm. The dream of a truly global law firm partnership along the lines of the big accounting firms has to date not been achieved and other large law firms such as Clifford Chance and Baker & McKenzie will be watching this deal closely to see just how successful Jones Day will be in making inroads into this highly competitive market.

This ambitious expansion by Jones Day heralds the beginning of the race to build the global super-firm as big-time players in the legal industry with global ambitions seek to meet the increasingly international needs of their clients

Global Legal Services
Jones Day, one of the world's largest law firms, provides integrated legal services on a global basis.  Jones Day was founded more than 110 years ago and has more than 1850 lawyers based in 25 offices around the world.  Gouldens is a long-established leading City of London law firm with more than 150 lawyers.  Gouldens is more than 100 years old and enjoys an excellent reputation for the quality of its lawyers and services.  As a result of the merger, Jones Day will have more than 2000 lawyers, making it the sixth largest law firm in the world.

EU-US to share judicial matters--Feb. 28, 2003
EU leaders have agreed on what to do when competing requests are made between EU states themselves. In this case the European Arrest Warrant will apply.

The Warrant, agreed in December 2001 by the EU states and coming into force in January 2004, will eliminate national frontiers. Extradition will not now be necessary between one EU state and another.

The US is requesting the same privilege as the EU states. A point fiercely opposed by the Union.

The plan currently negotiated between the EU and US also aims to improve co-operation on investigations into financial elements of serious crime including organised crime, terrorism and financial crime.

EU - US Summit...more Judicial sharing
Dec 18, 2002
While the Danish foreign minister says: "I expect my visit to underline once again that the ties that unite the EU and the USA are far more important than issues that divide," there are, as usual, many bones of contention...

The Bush administration has pushed for a judicial cooperation convention that would cover the criminal investigations, under which the exchange of personal data concerning suspects would be the rule, especially as concerns terrorism. The Danish EU presidency has announced an agreement between the European Police Unit, Europol, and the United States providing for the exchange of personal data should be concluded before the end of the year. The European Prosecution Unit, Eurojust, and the relevant US authorities would consider negotiations on similar co-operation agreements.

THE ULTIMATE LAWYERS' MISSION IN ISRAEL :
GAN Global Advisory Network
..from Arutz 7 -- June 26, 2003
http://www.israelnationalnews.com/news.php3?id=45720

(emphasis and purple this editor)

All Anglo; English-speaking :
Attorneys, law professors and jurists from around the world have arrived in
Jerusalem to participate in
the "Ultimate Lawyers' Mission," under the auspices of Shurat HaDin Israel Law Center. The Mission participants, from 15 U.S. states, Canada, the United Kingdom and Australia, are joining Israeli lawyers for an eight-day program
(actually it is 10 days: from June 22 to July 1-2003)
focusing on the realities of the
terrorist threat to Israel and what they can do as lawyers to fight it.
www.israellawcenter.org/mission.shtml

The participants are being treated to briefings by past and present officers in the IDF Intelligence and Operations branches, as well as by officials such as Defense Minister Sha'ul Mofaz, Chief Justice Aharon Barak, Avigdor Kahalani, Dore Gold, and others.  They toured the Beit El military court yesterday while four Hamas terrorists were on trial.

Also on the program is a visit to a front-line IDF position on the Lebanese border, a briefing by a Jenin-area checkpoint commander, and an exhibition by IDF undercover soldiers who carry out special operations against fugitive Palestinian terrorists.

"I wanted to come to Israel now, in the midst of the intifada, and really learn what is going on and how severe the threat to Israel's security is," said participant Menashe Frank, an attorney from
Florida.  "I want to learn what I can do to help."


One goal of the Lawyers' Mission is to establish an international legal response network to fight terrorist organizations and their sponsors. The participants are discussing how they can use their legal experience and judicial systems to provide mutual support in the war on terrorism.

"We are hoping that this first group of 50 legal professionals will form the basis of a
global network of attorneys dedicated to fighting terrorism through the courts," said Shurat Hadin Director Nitsana Darshan-Leitner, who herself has been active in trying cases against Yasser Arafat and the Palestinian Authority.  "Our goal is to create a legal network that will
work to bankrupt the terrorist organizations and their financial patrons."

EU - US Aviation Deal -- June 5, 2003
With a goal to combine the two biggest aviation markets in the world, this deal could also start the biggest reform in European aviation regulation since the creation of an internal EU aviation market in 1992.

The European Commission wants to introduce liberal norms, erasing the limits for foreign ownership and control of airlines in the EU and US. Europe would also want to see less protective measures introduced in America's domestic aviation. One of the norms is the so-called "Fly America" policy that rules that all US officials must fly with US airlines only.

EU's Commission ups the Court on Aviation merger
The Commission's new powers would allow it to negotiate a treaty with the US to form an Open Aviation Area, combining the two biggest aviation markets in the world, the US and the EU. With the North Atlantic, these markets would account for around 60 per cent of world aviation traffic.
The move follows a European Court ruling last year against the current bilateral deals with the US.

The prize the EU is seeking is to create the world's biggest liberalised aviation market and: To sweep away restrictive controls that limit foreign ownership and control of airlines both in the US and in the EU. To open the protected US domestic aviation market, and To end Washington's "Fly America" policy under which public officials must fly with US airlines.The Commission is expected to win two mandates today, one to negotiate a full aviation treaty with the US and a second so-called "horizontal" mandate to negotiate with other countries on the introduction of new nationality clauses in existing bilateral deals.

These would redesignate EU airlines as "European Community" carriers in place of existing narrow national designations. In turn, the Commission would agree to allow member states for the time being to continue striking deals with countries other than the US - with only a light oversight role for itself.

Austria, Germany, Denmark, Luxembourg, Sweden, Finland and Belgium signed "open skies" agreements with the U.S. in 1995 and 1996, allowing airlines from those countries unlimited access to points in the U.S. The UK-U.S. deal is defined by access to London's Heathrow airport.

EU ....... becoming a World Power

Prodi wants a "supra-national democracy".... is that world-wide ??...May 24-2002
Wants EU and US to partner
If Europe is to increase its influence on the world scene and be a credible partner for the United States, it must speak with a single voice on all aspects of external relations," Mr Prodi said
Is the antichrist-Beast (world leader from the EU) the "single voice" ???
Michael Ancram, Conservative foreign affairs spokesman, said Mr Prodi and the Commission had " blown the cover" on Mr Blair's carefully orchestrated attempt to suggest that the European Project would not lead to a European superstate.
"Today's proposals contain all the fundamental attributes of a foreign state," he said. "This is the Europe we have feared. This is the Europe we will fight to prevent."

Increasing the TransAtlantic Relationship [ Globally] -- Nov 25- 2002
meeting in Miami, Florida
One-way to make Europe "relevant" to America again is if Transatlantic relations become genuinely Transatlantic. After all, the Atlantic is not just boundried by Europe and the US: Western Africa and Eastern Latin America are equally Atlantic. Given that today's challenges are in the developing world, these are the countries that need to be anchored into a new world system.
Events and initiatives - which could range all the way from building an Erasmus programme for the entire zone through to some form of free trade area - that cover the entire Transatlantic basin would allow Europeans to bring their skills and knowledge of transnational networking, US authority and leadership, with Latin and African skills and dynamism.

Not surprisingly the denizens of Miami saw this as of particular interest, pointing out that it would also engage a broader cross-section of US society, notably African-Americans and "Latinos".

“I think we will have wider consensus in Europe that we need to have international law, international multilateral UN decisions and so on,” he said.
“Our tools are trade, our tools are economic agreements. Let’s see how we use these effectively to deal with weapons of mass destruction.”

“Europe and North America still believe that pragmatic, multilateral cooperation through NATO is the best way to meet our common security challenges,” he said.
“When it comes to supporting or leading large, complex multinational military operations, no other organisation has comparable capabilities, experience or forces.”

the 8th King of Revelation Chapter 17 is the leader of the Atlantic Alliance
the 11th Horn of DANIEL 7:20... is the leader of the Atlantic Alliance

In Rev. 17 we are told that there are 7 kings(
who have ruled over Israel) throughout world history, and these are explained at www.cybertime.net/~ajgood/ch2p2.html .

The UN leader (presently Kofi Annan) is the 7th titular (title only) King.
www.cybertime.net/~ajgood/2bibi.html
UN's Maurice Strong (earth-ethic) is clearly paving the way
for the 8th King....

The 8th King (Rev. 17:12) is also known as
the 11th horn of Daniel 7:20.
This 11th horn has the 10 horns (EU), but is "diverse" (different) from the others, meaning he comes from a different political entity. He is from a different country, as we see it.
This 11th horn does not come from the European Union, we feel, yet he is over them.

We believe
the 11th horn (king...leader) over Europe is an American, since America and Europe are destined to unite for security purposes. Europe desires political dominance. Yet she lacks the military might to back up that political preeminence. Europe will not have finalized her Euro-Corps until 2003 or beyond. So for now, she must rely on the multi-national forces of NATO (spearheaded by America). Europe also needs the technological warfare that only the United States can provide: STAR WARS.....lasers emitted from satellites.

Europe also needs an astute leader. But--- as is typical of many families--- the "sibling"-states are at too much rivalry to accept the dominance of a figure-head from one of their own members. Someone outside the "family" would have the bearing or stature needed for such a political position as European Leader.

Even our Lord said that one is not always given due respect from their own country....there is too much jealousy and envy.
Matthew 13:57; Mark 6:4; Luke 4:24; John 4:44.
(Even though these passages refer to a noble position of a prophet, it pertains to most exalted positions, due to the rivalry in man.)
It is our belief that the one over the EU will be a former American dignitary. Time will tell

Western Europe must also rely on the United States for Missile-Defense Technology.
(Star Wars...SDI ...NMD )
That is why there will be a Western co-ordination of military strength (NATO) united under the one world leader....who we feel will be
an American presiding over the European Union.
An American would definitely fill the bill for being a "diverse" (different) horn from the 10 horns of the EU.

"It may be that this
Atlantic Alliance will gradually develop into a broad security organization of the nations of Western Civilization, especially if Huntington's prediction:
"West versus the Rest" conflict becomes a reality".....quoted from......
www.msz.gov.pl/english/polzagr/publications/v08n1_kuzniar.html

TWO American men
It is our belief that
a prominent American will have the "take charge" position over in Europe.,
and that
another prominent American will be the false prophet, not over in Europe.
That is how we see it.

Let's see... Carter and the EU are against war with Iraq.... Bush is for the Iraqi war.
Does this give J Carter an advantage with the EU ??? A prestigious voice ?
