COUNTDOWN TO THE GIVEAWAY

America's focus on what is happening in the Balkans has taken their eyes from an even nore ominous threat to the security and well being of the United States...the scheduled surrender of the Panama Canal, which will take place at the end of this year. In 1979 the United States signed a new treaty with Panama in which it would wurrender control of the Panama Canal and the Canal Zone, to the Panamanian government. One of the key players in the current crisis in the Balkans was one of the key players in the giveaway of the Panama Canal, bringing the globalist career of Madelein Albright full circle, with major foreign policy crisises at both ends. Habitat For Humanity homebuilder and former peanut farmer Jimmy Carter spent his four years in the White House as the errand boy of the Council on Foreign Relations. During his term of office, Carter destroyed democracy in Iran, forced Israel to give the Suez Canal back to Egypt in exchange for a document called the "Camp David Accord" that would provide peace in the Middle East (providing Israel was willing to surrender almost all of Israel back to the Arabs and Palestinians), helped overthrow friendly dictatorships in Central America and replaced them with Communist regimes...and, the top coup for the CFR, Carter gave away the Panama Canal. Talk about batting .000! What is most interesting about Panama is the fact that it is, or was, in 1904 a nonexistent country. Panama did not exist. We created it. The United States was determined to create a shipping route across the Isthmus of Central America and looked at two sites for the construction of a canal. One was in Columbia, the other in Nicaragua. The Colombians were afraid that the United States would select Nicaragua, and negotiated a deal with the Americans that was finalized in the "Hay-Herrin Treaty" on January 23, 1903 that would grant them access to the narrowest point of land between the Gulf of Mexico and the Pacific Ocean. However, the deal was not good enough for Teddy Rosevelt since control of the proposed canal would remain with the Colombian government, not the United States. Columbia had been trying since 1878 to construct a canal across the Isthmus, and had hired a French construction to build it. However, every effort to do so failed. To gain control of the Isthmus, Roosevelt's agents encouraged Panamanians to start a civil war (which was financed by the United States). The revolution lasted only a few months, with Columbia recognizing the independence of Panama in January, 1904. Panama adopted a formal constitution on Feb. 13, 1904 and almost immediately signed an agreement with the United States. The American government bought the property of the failed French company for $40,000,000.00. The Isthmian Canal Commission was appointed by Congress on Feb. 5, 1906, and the legislation that funded the construction of the canal was passed on June 20, 1906. The Panama Canal opened on August 15, 1914, but traffic through the canal was limited due to the fact that the Canal was plagued by one landslide after another. The Panama Canal proved to be the most important waterway in the world, and tonnage has always exceeded that which passes through the Suez which links the Mediterranean with a direct route to the Pacific. During World War II, the Panama Canal was a critical factor in supplying MacArthur in the Pacific. If it had not been there, it is likely that the Japanese would have captured, and held, the entire Pacific region from Australia to Japan. The globalist pundits who engineered the giveaway of the Panama Canal, and who argue its merits on the grounds that it rightfully belongs to the soverign nation of Panama, deliberately ignore the fact that Panama would not exist as anything except a province of Columbia if the Panama Canal did not exist. Shortly after the United States surrenders the Panama Canal to the Panamanians, China is standing in the wings to take possession of it on a long term lease from the Panamanian government. It goes without saying the nation that controls the access to the Canal can grant or deny access to any other nation who desires to use it. In other words, if China decides to take an even more aggressive position in the Pacific, they can deny our warships access to the canal, and any Atlantic based Navy ships would either have to sail around the tip of South America, or use the Suez to gain access to the Pacific. If, at that time, we are having problems with the Arabs, access to the Suez could be denied as well, isolating any Atlantic based fleets. (But, of course, the pundits will sneer at such a contemplation and remind us that air power, not navy power, will determine the victors of the next major conflicts.) It is now a mute point. The giveaway has been accomplished. All that remains is its surrender. The surrender will weaken the United States militarily...and it will strengthen China militarily. Not only that, it will provide China with a base of operations in the Americas that will allow it, if provoked, to quickly position its naval fleets to target both Pacific coast and Atlantic coast American cities. And that is a threat that globalist rhetoric will not erase. It is time to demand the revocation of the 1979 Panama Canal Treaty...and demand it loud...and often. Let's put the heat on Congress to revoke that treaty before December 31.
