Unitary Executive Theory Asserts

That President is Freed from

Restraints of Criminal Law

 

 The unitary executive theory asserts that the president is freed from the restraints of criminal laws. “In light of the President’s complete authority over the conduct of war without a clear statement otherwise, criminal statutes are not read as infringing on the President’s ultimate authority in these areas.” –March 6, 2003, “Working Group Report on Detainee Interrogations in the Global War on Terrorism: Assessment of Legal, Historical, Policy, and Operational Considerations, Memo 25, The Torture Memos, p. 256.

 

Signing Statements Free

President From Obedience to

Laws of Congress

 

Of course, that is the purpose of the hundreds upon hundreds of “signing statements.” The president decides when, as, and if he will enforce the law according to his own interpretation of things. “The expansive use of signing statement violates Congress’ power to make the laws by giving the president power to say what that law is.” –Martin Garbus, The Next 25 Years: the New Supreme Court and what it means for Americans. New York: Seven Stories Press, 2007, p. 53. Newsweek, National Law Journal, and others cite Garbus as ‘America’s most prominent First amendment lawyer.’    

 

“What does it mean? It means that if Bush decides a law, or a part of the law, is unconstitutional, he does not enforce it.” Garbus, Ibid, 52.

 

Power to Define Enemy

Combatants, Indefinite Detention

 

The arbitrary designation of enemy combatants as enemy combatants, unreviewable by the courts, consigns the fate of the citizens to the will of the president. “Bush claims that he has congressional authority to start his own wars, preemptive or otherwise; to be the ultimate interpreter of foreign treaties; to define enemy combatants as he wishes; to detain prisoners for as long as he wishes and under such conditions as he wishes; and to continue surveillance on foreign intercepts for as long as he wants.” Garbus, Ibid., 58.

 

Unchecked Power

 

“In [judge] Alito’s earliest days with the Reagan administration, he laid out his concept of unchecked power, of inherent authority.” Garbus, 58. That is why Alito was sent to the Supreme court-to uphold the unitary executive theory. “In the unlikely event that the new Supreme Court does not give this president all he wants, he will ignore those decisions as well. That is truly that a ‘unitary’ president means. If America did not pay attention before, let it do so now.” Garbus, 59, (emphasis mine).      

 

A Replay of Julius Caesar,

Augustus Caesar, and Severus

 

We are watching a replay of Julius Caesar, Augustus Caesar, and Severus with the Praetorian Guards. Protestant America will wake only when it is too late to escape the snare.

 

The wealth of the treasury is given to the favored ones running such companies as Blackwater, Halliburton, and Kellogg, Brown, and Root, who immensely profit from pre-emptive war and nation building. KBR has received hundreds of millions of dollars to build detention camps in America. 

 

Jesuits Invited Into Iraq in 1931; Expelled in
1969; Wars Ever Since

 

“At the Request of Pope Pius XI in 1931, and as directed by Jesuit General Ledochowski, the Jesuits of the New England Province, headquartered in Boston, opened a new high school in 1932 by the name of Baghdad College, located in Baghdad, Iraq, and staffed by the Jesuit Fathers, Scholastics, and Brothers from four US Provinces.

Over the years Baghdad College flourished on what became a beautiful date-palm-covered property, was attended by both Catholic and Islamic students, and developed a reputation as one of the finest schools in Iraq. The Jesuits in Iraq operated under a government restriction that they engage in no proselytizing of their Islamic students, although they were free to service Catholic communities in the country. Some years later, in 1956, the Jesuits opened Al-Hikma University, with curricula in business and engineering. Al-Hikma was also located in the Baghdad area, several miles from Baghdad College. Two years later the dynasty was overthrown. Then:

 

·        1958 – Hashemite dynasty overthrown (as had been done by the Order’s Wahhabi al-Saudtribe to the Arabian Hashemite dynasty in 1926), King Faisal II and Prime Minister Nuri Saidare killed; Karim Kassem seizes power; republic proclaimed.

·        1963 – President Karim Kassem overthrown and killed.

·        1966 – President Muhammed Aref killed in a helicopter crash.

·        1968 – November, Al-Hikma Jesuits expelled from Iraq: allowed five days to leave the country.

·        1969 – All Jesuits expelled from Iraq (including Fr. Joseph MacDonnell).

·        1979 – Saddam Hussein becomes President of Iraq; payback time for the Moslem People of Iraq [1979-Present] –VA 1619.

 

September 11, 1649 was the day that Cromwell conquered Drogheda. VA 455.
